About

Casa Lemus

Casa Lemus is a simple, no-frills hotel on Calle Hortaleza, about a five-minute walk from Gran Vía. The location puts you in the middle of Madrid's shopping and dining scene, with Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, and the Royal Palace all within easy walking distance. It's a practical choice for travellers who want to spend their days exploring rather than in the room.

The property offers a range of rooms, from interior doubles to superior twins with balconies and city views. Some rooms share bathrooms, while others have private facilities. All rooms come with heating and air conditioning, and free Wi-Fi is available in public areas. There's a lift, vending machines, and a 24-hour front desk to handle check-in, which runs from 15:00 to 23:00.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable central location — A five-minute walk from Gran Vía and close to Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, and major shopping streets.
  • Friendly and accommodating staff — Guests repeatedly highlight the helpfulness of the team, from calling taxis to offering local tips.
  • Great value for the price — Rooms starting at £80 per night in a prime central area, with many reviews noting affordability.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Street noise in the heart of the city — Being on a lively central street means you'll hear traffic, sirens, and street life, especially at night.
  • Very basic rooms for some — A few guests found the rooms unfinished or lacking storage, and some bathrooms are shared.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel doesn't accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if travelling with an animal.
