AC Hotel Madrid Feria by Marriott

The hotel is in Hortaleza, north-east of central Madrid, in a practical business and fairground area rather than a historic sightseeing district. IFEMA Madrid, Campo de las Naciones and the Palacio Municipal de Congresos are the main local draws, while San Lorenzo metro station is around a short walk away for links into the wider city. The surrounding area is useful for offices, exhibitions, airport transfers and main road access. Central Madrid sights such as the Prado, Gran Vía and Puerta del Sol are best reached by metro, taxi or a planned cross-city journey.

• San Lorenzo metro station – approx. 700 m. A useful local metro stop for reaching central Madrid without relying only on taxis.
• IFEMA Madrid – approx. 1.5–2 km. The main exhibition and trade-fair venue in Madrid, especially relevant for business guests.
• Palacio Municipal de Congresos – approx. 2 km. A key conference venue in the Campo de las Naciones area.
• Campo de las Naciones – approx. 2 km. A business and events district linked with IFEMA and Madrid’s north-eastern convention zone.
• Parque Juan Carlos I – approx. 2.5 km. A large urban park useful for a walk or break between fairground appointments.
• El Corte Inglés Campo de las Naciones – approx. 3 km. A practical shopping stop near the airport and IFEMA area.
• Centro Comercial Plenilunio – approx. 6 km. A large shopping and dining centre useful for guests staying near the airport side of Madrid.
• Santiago Bernabéu Stadium – approx. 8–9 km. Relevant for football visitors, best reached by taxi or public transport connections.

• Check the hotel’s IFEMA transfer schedule in advance, as the complimentary service depends on fairs, occupancy and operating times.
• Use San Lorenzo metro station for city-centre journeys, especially if travelling to Gran Vía, Sol or the museum district.
• Allow extra time during major trade fairs, when taxis, hotel transfers and nearby roads around IFEMA can become busy.
• Confirm the daily parking fee before arrival; on-site self parking is available, but electric vehicle charging is not listed.
• For airport travel, arrange a taxi or public transport route, as the hotel does not provide a dedicated airport shuttle.

Spring and autumn are the most comfortable seasons for combining IFEMA events with Madrid sightseeing. Business demand can rise sharply around major exhibitions, so early booking is sensible. Summer is hot, making metro and taxi travel preferable during midday. Winter is quieter for general tourism but still active for conferences, business trips and airport-area stays.
