Location & Surroundings
Rafaelhoteles Atocha sits beside Atocha Station, the main hub for AVE high-speed trains connecting Madrid to the rest of Spain. The hotel is 15 minutes from the Reina Sofia National Museum Art Centre, the Prado Museum, and the Thyssen Bornemisza Museum, putting guests in Madrid's Golden Triangle of Art.

The junior suite includes a large hot tub, and all rooms come with comfortable beds, daily cleaning, and towel changes. Soundproof windows and air conditioning help guests sleep well despite the central location.
Dining & Breakfast
The on-site restaurant serves dinner and a breakfast buffet with hot and cold options, fresh fruit, and a wide assortment of bread. Breakfast costs 15 euros per person with a children's discount. The bar area offers snacks and drinks, and guests can order room service or use the coffee house on site.
