Plaza España RIO, Madrid Overview

Plaza España RIO is located in Madrid, Spain. Rated 7.8 out of 10 based on 35 guest reviews.

Plaza España RIO is a practical base for exploring Madrid, Spain, with its address on Calle rio n 6 3 interior izquierda placing you close to the city’s most walkable central streets. The hotel’s guest rating of 7.8/10 from 35 reviews suggests a steady, if not flawless, experience—many travelers seem to value the straightforward setup and the ability to move quickly from the Plaza de España area into the wider sights.

Inside, the standout comforts are air conditioning and free wired internet, which come in handy after a day of museum-hopping or evening strolling. Reviews commonly point to the usefulness of having reliable connectivity for maps, messaging, and planning, while the air conditioning is a relief during warmer days.
