Hotel Mediodía, Hotel in Centro district, Madrid, Spain
Hotel Mediodía is a hotel in the Centro district of Madrid, located close to Atocha station. Rooms come with air conditioning, telephone, minibar, and internet access, and the building also has a cafe and bar on site.
Hotel Mediodía built its early reputation as a stop for travelers arriving through Atocha, as that part of Madrid grew into the city's main rail gateway. The hotel stayed open through the decades as the surrounding neighborhood changed around it.
Hotel Mediodía sits just steps from the Paseo del Arte, the stretch of road where three of Europe's most visited art museums stand side by side. Leaving the hotel in the morning, you are likely to walk past groups already gathering outside the Reina Sofía or the Prado.
Atocha, Madrid's main rail and metro hub, is within walking distance, which makes arriving and leaving the city straightforward from here. The front desk is open around the clock and can help with general questions about the area.
The name Mediodía means midday or south in Spanish, and it refers to the hotel's position on the southern edge of the old city center, where streets were traditionally named after cardinal directions. This solar naming pattern still appears on several old buildings and squares in this part of Madrid.
