Tucked into the foothills north of Madrid, Villa Colmenar brings genuine Castilian character to the small historic town of Colmenar Viejo, a community that sits within easy reach of the Sierra de Guadarrama. This four-star property feels less like a hotel and more like a privately owned country…
Who stays here
Couples
Spacious four-bedroom house is oversized for couples, though the pool and countryside charm add romantic appeal.
Solo travellers
A large four-bedroom house in a quiet rural town offers little convenience or social atmosphere for solo travellers.
Families
Four-bedroom house, swimming pool, parking, and a relaxed countryside setting make this a natural family retreat.
Business travellers
Remote location, house-style accommodation, and lack of business facilities make it poorly suited for work trips.

The situation
Disliked
It needs remodeling; everything is a bit old, there's a strong smell of damp and sewage, but it's okay. The owners are very friendly and kind.

The house is large with many bedrooms and three bathrooms; there's a lovely rooftop terrace, a swimming pool (which we didn't use as it was out of season), and a garden. Overall, it's perfectly adequate for a short stay in Colmenar Viejo.
Disliked
I think with a small investment, things could be much better. The sheets had holes, for example. Several parts of the house could be repainted, and all the pans had damaged Teflon coating (which isn't healthy). The kitchen table also had a plastic tablecloth with holes, and the table wasn't suitable for nine people; even for seven, it was a tight fit. These aren't major expenses, but they would greatly improve the experience.

"Okay as an alternative to the overpriced hotel in Madrid."
Translated from German
Liked
The hosts were very friendly and, despite the language barrier, very helpful. The beds were very comfortable. The rooms were a good size, and the living room and kitchen were very spacious. There were at least three bathrooms. There was a pool. There were no charges for Wi-Fi.
Disliked
Unfortunately, the house is very old and run-down. The hairdryer was broken, and the dishes were mismatched and chipped. The same applies to the interior furnishings, the pool, and the kitchen appliances.

"Heat Unbearable"
Liked
Spacious and decent pool
Disliked
Property a bit outdated and would benefit from air conditioning - heat unbearable in August - we had to purchase an extra fan. Some aspects of the property require a serious deep clean.
