A Stylishly Located Hotel in Madrid with Mixed Experiences at ME Madrid
Our stay at the ME Madrid by Meliá started positively with a striking exterior and a very welcoming and pleasant reception team who greeted us warmly on every occasion. The hotel's central location is also a significant advantage.
We found our room to be darker than the online images, and the courtyard view was underwhelming. Additionally, the roof terrace is exclusively for the restaurant, with no outdoor space for hotel guests.
A major problem we encountered was with the bath, which was unusable in the traditional sense. I had to resort to using the shower head to painstakingly fill it, and this issue remained unresolved despite being reported on the day we arrived.
In conclusion, while the ME Madrid benefits from a fantastic location and a genuinely welcoming reception team, potential guests should be aware of the discrepancies in room brightness, the unappealing courtyard, the inaccessible roof terrace, and, most importantly, the potential for significant and unresolved maintenance issues like our unusable bath. The pleasantness of the reception staff was a definite highlight, but it couldn't fully compensate for the other shortcomings.
