On the whole the package was as advertised

1st class service - totally worth booking trips for football matches through yourselves. The atmosphere was electric in the stadium and the seats were amazing. Hotel was nice - however on arrival the guy at reception was totally rude which did not start our weekend very well. However once he left cannot fault the other staff within the hotel. Very central and close for everything. The service from our rep - Rebecca was excellent, left nothing to chance and we were confident all would be in place for our trip. As this was for our sons 21st.

Tip: would recommend getting the stadium tour tickets before you go and take Route 2 hop on hop off bus to get there. We took a 2 day ticket and was able to do the tour the day before the game and then took the bus to the game the next day. The queues were long for tour tickets. Well worth the money.

An excellent trip. Did not use the flights in the package as they were at inconvenient times and airports but the hotel was much better than we had imagined,with the breakfast exceeding our expectations. The football tickets were awaiting us on our arrival as arranged. The receptionist we saw most of was helpful beyond the call of duty but all staff were pleasant and helpful. The hotel is in a good area and within walking distance of the stadium which is important when leaving after the match. It would be impossible to use the Metro at this time! The service we had when phoning your office before departure was also helpful and informative. We enjoyed Madrid and spent Sunday exploring places we had not been on our last trip.

Tip: Make sure your hotel is within walking distance of the Bernabeu and allow plenty of time to find suitable restaurants for your main meal as they are few and far between! Also on arrival buy a card of ten tickets for travel on the Metro for about €12. It works out much cheaper!

The whole experience was very well set up!

Only there short time but really nice city.

Tip: If you can,  stay extra night to see madrid. I'll need to go back!!

packet was very good, hotel basic and seats where in the gods, but you can get better if you pay the extra. over all packed was great, and football breaks was joy to book with. the city of Madrid was a joy to see.

Tip: Barcelona next

Easy way to book a whole trip. Everything worked as planned. Only disappointment was the last minute change of hotel. replacement was further out of city centre and was quite basic,

Tip: Buy a Metro pass at airport. Metro is excellent way of getting round city and much cheaper than getting taxis.

Very helpful staff, assisted with transfers and cancelling a mis booked one! Seats were brilliant, although pricey but it was a sought after game. Atmosphere excellent to the point Im a converted football fan of Real Madrid now! Well organised - thank you

Tip: If its once in a lifetime, go and watch Real Madrid

Every part of the package was excellent. Had no problems what so ever.

Tip: Get to the stadium early to get the full experience and take in the atmosphere.

Everything was fine for the amount the trip cost . Only small complaint was that our seats were not together . Four of us in two lots of two.

Tip: Watch out for Saturday night it is protest night and 10's of thousands of people take to the streets to protest at whatever has grieved them that week all peaceful though.

If Carlsberg built stadiums they would build one like the Bernabeu second to none and I've been to lot !!

amazing trip. this package really good, loves Madrid especially Plaza Mayor

We hadnt heard about Football breaks and were a little dubious at first as the price was very competitive. Firstly the website was very easy to use with the cost clearly shown at each section and the options available to us. Football breaks (Rebecca) were very efficient in arranging new flights after Monarch ceased business, this was hassle free and was at no extra cost. We saw a great game - it was a buzzing atmosphere. Our hotel (Principle Pio) was excellent and in a great position to the Palace and other sites as well as close to the Metro. Madrid is an excellent place to visit - a thoroughly enjoyable trip arranged wonderfully by Football breaks.

 Tip: - Do the Segway tour its great fun!

- Dont rush out of the stadium - take in the view a little while so the queue to the Metro goes down

Every thing went exactly as they said it would. Did not even have to ask for the tickets at the hotel they were just handed to me from reception as I checked in

We had a brilliant time in Madrid watching Real v Barcelona. The hotel was nice and clean with the use of the air con a must as it touched 42 degrees when we were there! The tickets were waiting for us when we arrived which was great, the atmosphere of the match itself was incredible and although we upgraded to Cat 1 tickets, the view was still pretty high on the 3rd tier of the Bernabeu. But all in all, it was a very enjoyable trip, this is our third time booking with Football Break and would definitely recommend them to anyone.

antastic, what a wonderful time we had. The total package we had was brilliant and so well organised. We flew from Manchester, it was an early start but worth it as we arrived at our hotel just before mid-day. The flight time to Madrid was 2hr 10min. We could have chosen a bus or tube from the airport but there were lines of Taxis so we got one to our hotel. It was a standard fare of 30 euros. We stayed at the Best Western Trafalgar Hotel which was ideal for both the city centre and the football ground. The hotel is small but really nice and clean and the staff were helpful and friendly. The hotel was only 300mts from the tube station. We did the VIP package which was brilliant we were really well looked after. The seats in the stadium were four rows from the front on the lower section. In the VIP area the staff were lovely, there was so much really nice food to be had before, half-time and after the match. The free bar included beer, wine, champagne the lot. Madrid is a lovely city and well worth exploring. The Royal Palace is well worth a visit and is cheap to get in. Go on a hop on hop off red bus or take the Metro which is easy to use and safe it costs 12.50 euros for 10 journeys. Visit the Gourmet experience on the top floor of El Corte Englesis shopping store on the Gran Via street for fantastic 360 views over the city and a great choice of food and drink.

Tip: Get to the stadium early to enjoy the atmosphere. The Bernabeu Stadium is only four stops on the metro from the city centre

A very efficiently organised trip with great service from FootballBreak. Madrid is a beautiful city and the Bernebau stadium when local rivals, Atletico, is unbelievable. The atmosphere around and inside the stadium was absolutely brilliant but at no time did my grandsons, sons-in-law and I feel threatened or intimidated. Just extremely lively

Tip: Enjoy the city - it's just beautiful with great restaurants and bars - try the jambonieres - places where you can get sliced dried ham with a beer, coffee etc

My rating would have been excellent for the whole trip if it wasn't for the fact my daughters phone was taken from her pocket Having said that the atmosphere in the stadium was brilliant and the seat were fantastic only 7 back from the pitch. The couple of queries I had were answered promptly and advice given. Madrid is a beautiful city and I would highly recommend visiting. If your a football fan I would certainly book through football break. Yes I'm sure you could do the trip cheaper but would you get the seats we did with hassle free effort. I would recommend the stadium tour.

Tip: my only advice is be totally street wise my daughter wanted to see the footballer get off their bus but so did 1/2 the stadium. Very busy, so if you do want to do this make sure you get to the stadium in good time otherwise you'll get caught up in the crowd and this is where my daughters phone was taken. It could have happened in any busy city in any busy crowd. The sad thing for us is that it contained all the stadiums tour photos. :-(
