In this instance my flight arrived from New York before 7AM, and my flight to Frankfurt was after 3PM (I intentionally planned such a long layover so I could take the once daily LAN flight between Madrid and Frankfurt).

Share your questions, experiences, and thoughts below.
We stayed at this hotel about 5 months ago. We took the same LA flights from MAD to FRA, overnight at Hilton FRA (fantastic experience) then FRA to MAD, overnight at Hilton MAD (horrible stay). We were only at the hotel for less than 6 hours as we arrived very late and had to leave very early next morning. We had exactly same type of room you had - king bed very uncomfortable, huge bathroom with spa bath, separate shower and toilet etc. the room unfortunately smelled smoking - and we are non-smokers
Nice looking hotel, modern but kind of retro. With you living in hotels, are there any toiletries that you actually take with you to the next hotel? Favourite brands? Thanks
I stayed there just a week ago Friday on our way back home from Spain! Unbeknownst to me, there were about 20 models and their posse staying there at the same time. Hard time convincing my fiance' that it was simply coincidence 🙂 I used points + $ (like 36 Euro) and think we got a lot of value out of the lounge and breakfast. IMO the beds were pretty comfortable but I bet the wine helped me sleep.
You were on the right track with the red lounge chair, it's a classic design from the 1960ies. Beautiful piece and still being manufactured, retails at around $5k or so but of course the one Hilton use might be a cheapo knock-off, you never know. Nicely done hotel, though!
Re: Hotel cosmetics...Anybody else here doesnt understand Hiltons Peter Thomas Roth toiletries? Everything is somehow super-/ultra-/mega-/-rich/-smooth, and in the end, the bright mandarin scented shower gel looks and smells like Tang and feels like just any other shower gel. What exactly is deluxe about a dental kit?
Okay, Lucky, could you stop staying in Hiltons? You are staying in them, being treated very well, and then telling everyone about it.
I liked it much better when you were fighting with DCS and telling people how horrible the Hilton program is. At this rate, you will have everyone discovering how great Hilton is and ruin it for DCS and I.
This truly questions your ability to plan a trip..........the game has smothered you and you have died in its' grasp...........
I really like the stylish retro design, it looks a bit like rooms of rich europeans in the 70ies: http://travelwithmassi.com/hilton-madrid-airport-2/
