Tribu Malasaña

This hotel is a great choice and I liked it very much. The bad reviews here are clearly from the time it was not yet rennovated and in other ownership. Now it is a completely new hotel that is really very nice, moreover for this price and in the city center. In front there is a space under roof for a car or taxi to stop and calmly get off or load with all belongings. To start from the begining, the staff was extremely helpfull and friendly, all speaking great English. While I was checking in, one of them took all our bags in the room and the manager played with my kid, at the check-out they helped with ordering a taxi to the airport. The strolley or other bags could be kept on the ground floor in a closed room. The part of the way up is by a staircase but as I said the staff helped with the luggage and afterwards there are 3 elevators to go up to the rooms. On the common floor there is a nice room with coaches and some books, water, apples and coffee. The design is very nice, colourful but with taste. The WiFi was fast and worked perfectly in the whole building. I had a Double Luxe room on 3rd floor. The room - great, spacios and with everything needed. Clean, quite silent for a hotel as the corridor is covered with carpet and doors are not thin. The window could be opened if you don’t like A/C (which was present), it’s a quiet side-street but with opened windows you can hear the late party-goers on pedestrian street nearby. With closed window there is no problem with noise, even my small kid could sleep calmly. Big bed and not too soft, just right for a good sleep, TV with a wide range of channels (news and kids channels too, Eurosport Germany), enough space to play and move around. There is a couch and a table that you can use as a dinning area, in front of a kitchenette that is a real life saver, very handy if you travel with children.

the location of Apartment was excellent, despite the central area, it was quite. Thanks to the perfect isolation of the double windows, we did not hear any notice and were able to sleep well. The bed was very comfortable. The metro Tribunal was only few steps away. Last but not least, great and efficient AC. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

After 5 nights at Tribu Malasaña, we couldn't be happier with our choice! The room was spacious, modern, and clean, with daily coffee and housekeeping - a vacation game-changer. The bed was ultra-comfy, and the Wi-Fi worked flawlessly. I appreciated the thoughtful touches from the staff - from the welcome water bottles and toothbrushes in the room to the magazine and daily supply of fresh apples and snacks in the lobby. The location is unbeatable: safe, clean, vibrant, and steps from metro/buses (though we walked 50+ km exploring Madrid's stunning streets). Unlike chaotic areas like Gran Vía or Plaza Mayor, Malasaña felt authentic - lively evenings (light street noise; bring earplugs just in case) but peaceful for sleeping. Bonus: Luggage storage saved us before our late flight! The staff was professional, friendly, and attentive. Nearby food & coffee gems we adored: Honest Greens: Fresh, flavorful, and generous portions; Delish Vegan Doughnuts: The best cinnamon roll in Europe - fluffy, sweet, and 100% plant-based! Coffee's great too; Mad Mad Vegan - Incredible plant-based burgers (try the Rock'n Chick'n + Cajún fries); Natif Coffee & Kitchen - Stylish specialty coffee spot with vegan milk and excellent pastries.

I had an exceptional stay at Tribu Malasaña! From the moment I arrived, the service was top-notch. Raquel, Alana, and Diego were all incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect throughout my stay. Their warmth and attention to detail really made a difference. The location is unbeatable – just a two-minute walk to Tribunal Metro, which made getting around the city so easy. The room itself was spacious, newly renovated, and spotlessly clean, offering all the modern comforts I could ask for. I would highly recommend Tribu Malasaña to anyone looking for a stylish and comfortable stay in Madrid!

Location amazing Staff very kind Room sizes are fabulous
