Hostal Fonda Horizonte

La Latina & Lavapiés


Billing itself as a hostal run by travellers for travellers, Hostal Horizonte is a well-run place. Rooms have far more character than your average hostal, with high ceilings, deliberately old-world furnishings and modern bathrooms. The King Alfonso XII room is especially well presented.
