Summary of reviewsHotel Isla de La Garena is strategically located near the A2 motorway and Zaragoza highway, making it an accessible choice for travelers. While it might be somewhat removed from central Alcala de Henares and Madrid, the tranquility and ample parking provided are appreciated, especially by business travelers. Nearby dining options and commercial facilities such as the Oasis Shopping Center and El Corte Inglés add to the convenience. Overall, the location is favorable for those prioritizing peace and ease of travel.
The breakfast at the hotel garners mixed reviews with many guests praising the varied and high-quality selection, including freshly squeezed orange juice. However, there are recurring issues with restocking, technical problems with coffee and juice machines and a lack of variety, leading some to feel it doesn't meet a four-star standard. Improvements in variety, quality and service efficiency could enhance the breakfast experience.
Dinner at the hotel receives comments about affordability and occasionally delicious à la carte options, but the limited menu variety, slow service and high prices relative to quality are common critiques. The restaurant's limited hours also pose an inconvenience. While the dining experience has highlights, it often falls short of guest expectations.
The spacious, comfortable rooms at Hotel Isla de La Garena are well-regarded, particularly those with terraces and access to the pool. The amenities such as large bathrooms, jacuzzis and room features like small fridges contribute to a pleasant stay. While some rooms exhibit issues like worn-out furniture and inconsistent cleaning, the overall sentiment is positive with the spaciousness and facilities enhancing the guest experience.
Cleanliness at the hotel is mostly praised, especially in the bathrooms and spa. Some lapses, like dusty furniture and occasional rush in cleaning, are noted, but in general, the hotel maintains a good standard of cleanliness, contributing to a comfortable stay.

The spa, although sometimes found small, is praised for its cleanliness and relaxing atmosphere. The Turkish bath and other facilities are well-received, though operational inconsistencies are noted. The spa policy is more suited to adults, making it less ideal for families with young children.
The gym, though a positive addition, is small with basic equipment and some maintenance issues. Despite this, it remains an appreciated facility for fitness-oriented guests.
The pool facilities receive high praise for their size, maintenance and relaxing environment, particularly the saltwater pool. The direct room access to the pool and family-friendly design add to its appeal. Minor issues such as crowded conditions and occasional maintenance lapses do exist, but they do not significantly detract from the overall positive pool experience.
Parking is a major plus with ample, free and secure options including underground and covered spaces. The addition of electric car charging points is noted, making it particularly convenient for those traveling by car.
