“Excellent”
Amazing hotel, couldn’t ask for more really! Breakfast was amazing, literally anything you could want was there and the service was great. Rooms are spotless and cleaned daily. The only point of improvement could be a larger pool, it’s tiny and for the size of the hotel in August at 38 degrees it’… more

“Rooftop bar”
The roof top is amazing. The view is fabulous, make sure you make a reservation, if not, it's not a long wait but better to have a table reserved.

“Our 30th Wedding Aniversary in Madrid”
We booked the RIU as it was a special weekend in Madrid and we wanted it to be special. The room, food and general quality of the hotel was great. The only negatives was the space around the pool and available space on the roof bar.

“A short break in Madrid”
We spent four nights at the RIU in central Madrid. It is a large and well-equipped hotel. Staff provided excellent service in all aspects of our stay. It is a very busy hotel and this is particularly noticeable at breakfast, but the catering team is well organised and we were always seated quick… more

Key features of the moderation of reviews
There is an automatic system that detects offensive language, in which case the review will not be published. If an owner reports one of the reviews, the review will be re-evaluated and, if it fails to comply with our content standards, it will be taken down.
Our criteria for collecting guest reviews
After getting home from the trip booked with us, the customer will receive an email asking them to review different aspects of each of the services booked. The system only allows the booking holder to complete this review and only once.
When will my review appear on the website?
Reviews typically take less than 24 hours to appear on our website. The process may take longer if our team of moderators have to examine the review in more detail.
How long will my review stay on the website?
Once it has been published, your review will automatically appear in the summary of reviews and if it is considered a featured review (based on publication date, length and quality of content), the complete review will also appear. Said review will not appear or will disappear from the system if it contains offensive language or if it is reported.
Can I get a reward for my opinion?
No. Reviews written in exchange for personal rewards such as gifts, services, or money will be taken down.
Can a review be edited?
No, once a review has been written, it cannot be edited. If you want it taking down, you can ask to have it deleted and not republished again.
Will my review appear on other websites or publications?
Once published, all or some of the reviews written by our members may be used on some of our partner sites or in promotional material in general.
If I write a review about a service, can the provider contact me about it?
No, as the personal data of the booking holder writing the review will not be shared with any service providers being reviewed. In the featured reviews shown, only the booking holder's first name will appear, meaning that there's no way that the service provider can contact you.
