About

Hostal Gallardo

Hostal Gallardo is a 3-star guesthouse occupying the fourth floor of a classic Madrid building on Fuencarral, one of the city's most vibrant shopping streets. Its position puts you within a 5-minute stroll of the Malasaña neighborhood, and the Tribunal Metro station is basically at the doorstep, making airport transfers and city exploration straightforward.

The property keeps things simple: rooms are compact but spotless, cleaned daily, and fitted with practical touches like a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and free Wi-Fi. A safe deposit box and free toiletries round out the essentials. There's no restaurant or bar on site, but the surrounding streets are packed with cafes and tapas bars.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Compact rooms — Multiple guests note the rooms are small, and given the building location on the fourth floor, there's no lift mentioned.
  • Basic, hostel-style expectations — One guest cautioned it's a hostel, not a full-service hotel, so don't expect extensive facilities.
  • No on-site breakfast or dining — While some guests mention breakfast was available, the amenity list shows no restaurant, and the property is non-smoking with no bar.
  • Street noise possible — Being on Fuencarral, a bustling central street, some rooms may pick up noise—though one interior room was described as quiet.
  • No pets allowed — The property policy prohibits pets, which may be a drawback for those traveling with animals.
