About this hotel
While primarily an airport hotel, the Meliá Madrid Barajas offers excellent transport links that make it a viable base for stadium visitors. A short walk to the Av. Logroño-Ariadna stop connects you to public transport, allowing you to reach the Metropolitano stadium and the city center without hassle. The hotel itself provides a comfortable stay with an outdoor pool, a bar, and a restaurant serving Mediterranean cuisine. Families will appreciate the kid-friendly amenities, and the free 24/7 airport shuttle is a major plus for those flying in and out. Paid parking is available for guests arriving by car, ensuring convenience for all types of travelers.

Our take
Meliá Madrid Barajas is the hotel I would choose when the flight is the fixed point of a Metropolitano trip: the free 24-hour airport shuttle removes the stress of early departures. An outdoor pool and a Mediterranean restaurant help families, and the Av. Logroño-Ariadna stop nearby links to the stadium. With 8.4/10 across about 4,900 reviews it is solid, though fans planning a longer city stay will find more atmosphere closer to the center.
- Use the free 24/7 airport shuttle for smooth transfers, especially if you have an early flight.
- Take advantage of the short walk to Av. Logroño-Ariadna for public transport to the stadium and city center.
- If you're driving, book the paid parking in advance for peace of mind on match days.
Why we love it

Why guests love itMeliá Madrid Barajas scores 8.4/10 from about 4,900 reviews and is first an airport hotel, which suits fans flying in for an Atlético match. The free airport shuttle runs around the clock, there is an outdoor pool, a bar and a Mediterranean restaurant, and the hotel is kid-friendly. The Av. Logroño-Ariadna stop is a short walk, so I would take public transport to the Metropolitano. Parking is paid.
