The room was comfortable and clean and the staff is very kind and helpful. The hotel is in an excellent location, at a walking distance from many attractions. However, the hotel is not a typical 4 stars hotel. Many facilities as a bar, specious lobby or fitness room are missing. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Sercotel Ayala is in an excellent location being convenient for both the old town and other attractions such as the Guggenheim. Our room was spacious and very quiet despite facing the street. Pleasant staff. We didn’t have the hotel breakfast. Would happily stay again.
