Very comfortable rooms with good facilities (minibar stocked well and not too expensive, tv, good bathroom, quiet and air conditioned).
Breakfast was extra on the deal I took and cost about €10, a little expensive but really excellent - great selection of fresh fruit (pineapple, melon etc), meats and cheeses, cooked breakfast, wide selection of breads, cakes and continental type breakfast as well. All on a help yourself buffet. Definately worth it if you've got a busy day ahead.
Other facilities include:
A friendly bar where they serve delicious toast almonds (complimentary) with your drink.
A moderate to high priced resturant (depending on what you eat), there speciality was different varieties of Risoto.
Free internet access for 15 minutes a day.
Small gym facility (about 4 machines).
As a four star hotel there were lots of conference facilities as well, but of no interest to me!
The resturant served tapas as you wait for your meal. On one occasion they had warm figs wraped in ham. Absolutely delicious!
More on location:
Two Metros are close by, one is the Atocha, about 10 minute walk, but then you have to get through Atocha Station as well and there is another Metro also about 10 minutes away - Palos de la Frontera on line 3. This can take you to Sol, Callao, Plaza de Espana to name a few.
It's a good location for things to do near Atocha, but for the other parts of the city it isn't ideal. Also the location isn't so good for finding places to eat nearby or in the evening. The next time I go to Madrid I think I'd prefer to be in a hotel closer to Plaza Mayor or Sol.
But still it is definately a good choice if you can get a good deal. Check out expedia and the regular internet hotel sites.
