Nestled among the vivacious nightlife, medieval streets, and traditional tapas bars of Madrid’s lively Lavapiés neighbourhood, this apartment is in the mix of the city’s bursting cultural scene. Here, you’re steps away from the city’s most popular tourist attractions, but far enough from the throngs of crowds.

Stepping inside, you’ll find a bright, minimalist interior that’ll suit any preference. Natural light billows through the patio doors, inviting you to enjoy your morning coffee from the Juliet balcony, watching daily life resume in the streets below. And when you return home after a day of exploring Madrid, enjoy a few glasses of wine and a game of cards around the dining table before heading out to one of Lavapiés’ restaurants.

Whether you’re here for business or pleasure, the central location will certainly come in handy. If you are here for work, the city’s business area is within easy reach – simply hop on the metro to make your way there. But if you want to stay closer to home, you’ll find much to explore. Stroll around the Reina Sofía Museum, marvel at the San Fernando Church, or simply discover the steep streets and traditional corrola buildings.

Modern, compact and centrally located, this apartment is the perfect landing pad for those always on the go. Inside, it’s stripped-back and minimalistic with funky patterned walls, tiles and textiles adding interest to the spaces. Wake up feeling refreshed in the neat bedrooms before starting the day with a quick breakfast put together in your fully-equipped kitchen. Once you’ve finished your coffee, head out and explore your surroundings. 

Begin with a trip to the Prado Museum then enjoy a picnic in sunny Retiro Park, a short walk from your doorstep. Mosey over to the Royal Palace or shop ‘til you drop along the Gra Vía. Come evening, seek out a long-standing tablao for a rousing flamenco performance followed by tasty tapas in a laid-back restaurant.

Positioned just a fifteen-minute stroll from El Retiro Park, this home provides a stylish base in Madrid’s beating heart. You’ll find it nestled in the cobbled streets of Barrio de las Letras, surrounded by an array of eateries, bars, and museums, the Reina Sofia and the Museo del Prado, less than ten minutes from your doorstep on foot. Perched on the third floor, it boasts delightful views from its street-facing balcony. After a restful slumber, spend mornings out here, tucking into coffee and in the sunshine before slipping out to explore. 

The interior is stylishly furnished and, with its free-flowing layout, provides the perfect space for couples. A timeless canvas of high ceilings and hardwood floors is brimming with contemporary comforts, including a fully equipped kitchen, while large windows usher in floods of sunlight. Between adventures in the city, you’ll love kicking back in your air-conditioned pad. Snuggle up on the plush sofa, gather around the dining table for a home-cooked meal or enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony at sunset.

Boasting a privileged position in Madrid’s culture-rich Las Letras neighbourhood, this top-floor apartment offers comfort and style in equal measure. 
 
Its slanted ceilings and contemporary decor make an immediately striking welcome in the open-plan living area, bathed in light thanks to the scenic skylights that give way to rooftop views. Make yourself comfortable in the seating nook with a glass of wine after a day of exploring the city, or gather together at the dining table for a meal when you’re not out sampling the lively local tapas scene. The beamed bedroom is a serene space you’ll love retreating to at the end of the night, as you fall asleep to the glow of the moon through the skylight. 
 
What’s more, you’ve got access to the building’s shared rooftop terrace – a beautiful sun trap that beckons alfresco breakfasts and celebratory sundowners as you watch the light fade over the city. 
 
When it comes to sightseeing, you’re in an ideal spot to make the most out of Madrid’s most celebrated museums with the famous Museo Nacional del Prado a five-minute walk and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía a seven-minute stroll. You’re also a thirteen-minute walk from leafy El Retiro Park, a fifteen-minute stroll from Plaza Mayor, while bustling Gran Vía is ten minutes away on foot. 


Sun Story

Patio / Terrace

Nestled in the heart of Madrid, this penthouse apartment is an ideal base for a family or small group of friends on a Spanish stay. We love the contemporary light-filled living space, and there’s plenty of room for everyone to spread out here. But the cherry on the cake? It has to be the private terrace. A sun-kissed spot to sip sangria and gaze out across the city – what’s not to love? And when the vistas draw you out to explore, this home’s proximity to Atocha, Delicias, and Palos de la Frontera metro stations makes sightseeing a breeze.

Single-Level Home

Presenting an abundance of natural light, the serene ambience here invites guests to switch off, unwind and recharge – despite the apartment's central location in Madrid. We love the soothing colour scheme of vanilla and macadamia hues in the main living space. After a day of sightseeing, shopping and sampling the local tapas delights, there's nowhere better to kick back and relax. 

And with space to cook and serve up your own aperitifs and meals, you'll have the option of eating out or rustling up your own delicious treats when staying here. Following fun-filled days out exploring the city – where better to soak the day away than the bathtub? Bliss. Located in the Sol neighbourhood, you'll be positioned steps away from the sought-after monuments and attractions and an abundance of stylish boutiques and dining opportunities to discover.

We challenge you to find a prettier apartment overlooking the Royal Palace of Madrid. This place is a real showstopper, with twin Juliet balconies opening over Plaza de Oriente Gardens. Bold, bright and just downright beautiful, it's dripping in character thanks to ornate cornice, traditional shuttered windows and classical furnishing. A riot of elegant colours and patterns, it couldn't be further from modern minimalism if it tried.

Once you've arrived and stared out of the window for long enough to take it all in, choose between the two pretty bedrooms – one decorated in calming greens, the other in vibrant terracotta. There's a grand, open-plan living space to keep everything sociable, and a kitchen with everything you'll need for cooking at home. But we suspect you'll be eating out much of the time – it would be rude not to when surrounded by some of the best cafes and restaurants in the city. And with most of the major attractions on your doorstep too, you'll have plenty to see and do.

This is a big and cleverly laid-out home that impressed us with how quiet it was – in spite of the fact that it's in the strictest centre of Madrid. Both Puerta del Sol and the Prado are within walking distance, setting you up for great sightseeing walks. Corinthian gives the impression of old-timey grandeur. It's not a scratch-free home, but one that feels lived in and furnished with a personality. The high ceiling and use of wood in almost every room give it a warm and welcoming vibe. 

Corinthian

While this studio apartment situated in the heart of Madrid may be small in size, it more than makes up for it in charm and comfort. An ideal base for a couple or a solo traveller, this city gem has everything to make your stay a restful one, and when it comes to exploring the many wonders the Spanish capital has to offer, you couldn’t wish for a better location as your starting point.

Enter to be greeted by a warm and welcoming space, bathed in light flooding in through the large windows which lead onto a little balcony. Overlooking a charming street of the Barrio de las Letras, this is a lovely place to sit down and enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. Back inside you’ll find a large sofa inviting you to kick off your shoes and relax after a day of dashing around the city – settle in for a snuggly night of movies. The bright and well-equipped kitchen will make rustling up a quick and delicious supper a breeze, and you’ll be able to savour it at the dining table. 

A great added bonus is the roof terrace where you can lounge about on the comfy seats and admire the city views sprawling out before you. For a night of restful sleep, you’ll love the soft and comfy bed – and while it shares the space with the rest of the living area, the smart and elegant design means that you won’t feel cramped here. 

Outside your front door, you’ll be just minutes away from the great museums, including the Reina Sofia and Museo del Prado, as well as the beautiful Retiro Park.

Ten minutes from the alfresco drinking spots of Plaza Mayor, and just over fifteen from the lush greenery of the Parque de El Retiro, this apartment is a wonderful base in Madrid. Despite being so close to main attractions and located among the most vibrant streets, it’s a space where you can relax. This apartment is classy, colourful, and comfortable. The host has taken it upon themself to create a peaceful oasis in the middle of the city, curating an eclectic look with antiques and flea-market finds. We love the living and dining room, complete with mid-century chairs and a chandelier to create an elegant glow for dinner parties. Another fabulous use of light comes from the shuttered windows to your private balcony. With three sets of rich, wooden folding doors, you can step out to the railings with a glass of tempranillo after supper to watch the city light up at nightfall. With decorative, gilded bed frames in the sumptuous bedrooms, you’ll even feel stylish while you sleep. Rest up well, because you’ve got some exploring to do the next morning – the three galleries of the Art Walk are all less than fifteen minutes away.

The Venetian

Twenty minutes on foot from Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol, and El Retiro Park, this apartment is well-placed to explore. Many shops, restaurants, and metro stations are nearby, as well as some of Madrid's most famous markets. When you're not sightseeing, this central home is practical and comfortable. We love the exposed brick and stone walls, though it does mean it's a little dark. The kitchen is the ideal size to rustle up lighter fare, but we suspect you'd prefer dining out.

This unique loft apartment is perfect for a family, a small group of friends, or two couples looking for a stylish and comfortable base in Madrid. It’s in a vibrant part of the city, close to restaurants and shops, and within walking distance of many of the key attractions – Plaza Mayor and the Prado Museum are less than twenty minutes away on foot. If you don’t feel like walking, hop on the metro at nearby Embajadores. The apartment is modern and attractive, equipped with everything needed for a city break.

Nice to haves

This is an elaborate home that impresses with the broad strokes as well as fine ones. An enviable structure with high ceilings and big windows is filled with custom-made furniture that leaves plenty of space to move around. We loved the use of space that puts desks, chairs and bold art pieces in unexpected places – against all odds, it works.

The Porcelain Penguin

It doesn’t get any more central than the location of this stunning duplex apartment, which is an ideal base for those wanting to sample all that this vibrant city has to offer. 

Step through the front door to be welcomed by a lovely living area, bathed in streams of natural light flooding in through the large windows. You’ll find yourself immediately seduced by the charm of this place – the comfy furnishings will tempt you to kick off your shoes and spend the afternoon lounging about and admiring all the unique details. We love the beamed ceilings and the statement brick wall which lends the apartment its warm and elegant ambience. Rustle up quick and delicious meals in the bright open-plan kitchen and enjoy them with your loved ones at the dining table or better still at the sun-kissed roof terrace overlooking the ancient rooftops of the old town. This is also the perfect spot to welcome the day with a cup of coffee in the morning while you plan the day’s excursions. 

Factor in the plush bedrooms which carry the promise of restful sleep and luxurious bathrooms and we think you’ll have everything covered for a perfectly restful stay. 

Outside your door, you’ll find yourself in the best possible spot for exploring the city – allow yourself to get lost in all the magic on offer around every corner. 


Under the Spanish Sky 

Library of Books

A comfortable and functional home in the heart of Madrid, this apartment is quiet, inviting and convenient. There’s a winter garden balcony for relaxing with a cup of coffee in the mornings, a sitting room with a collection of books – fitting, considering your home is in the Literary Quarter – and a bright and spacious living area, our favourite place to recline with a glass of wine in the evenings. 

After breakfast cooked up in the modern kitchen, get lost in the charming streets that surround your home. You’re a five-minute walk from the Museo Nacional del Prado, less than fifteen from the sprawling Retiro Park and twenty from the Royal Palace. When all of that exploring works up a hunger, check out your neighbourhood’s impressive culinary scene. Find a tapas bar for a tipple and a bite to eat or try out international cuisine in sleek dining rooms.

Modern, bright and centrally located close to Madrid’s top sights, this home right by Puerta del Sol is a sunny delight. 

With its blue and white colour scheme, exposed brick details and open-plan layout, it embodies city living in chic, cool style. Open up the bedroom’s French doors to look out over the city from the Juliet balcony first thing in the morning before ambling into the living room where another pair of Juliet balconies await. Kick back on the sofa with your coffee, letting the breeze sweep in through the open doors, then set out for a day of sightseeing – Plaza Mayor is just a seven-minute walk away, Gran Vía is a ten-minute stroll, while both the Royal Palace of Madrid and the world-famous Museo Nacional del Prado are fifteen minutes away on foot. 

After a day of exploring, come back home for a celebratory meal around the glass dining table or head out to discover the neighbourhood’s best tapas bars and restaurants.

Blue Heartbeats

Located metres from the iconic Plaza Mayor, this lovely Madrid apartment is the perfect place to stay if you want to get the most out of your time in the city. With an understated, soothing colour palette highlighted by the natural light flooding through the windows, you'll feel at home the moment you step through the front door. Its central location means you're surrounded by tempting tapas bars, charming neighbourhood cafes, and plenty of beautiful streets to wander down with no particular goal. So after a long day of adventuring, snuggle up on the cosy sofa and stream a classic Pedro Almodóvar movie before retreating to the serene bedrooms for a restful night's sleep. In the morning, sip on a cup of coffee as the colourful streets come to life below. Then, for blissful days out, take a stroll through the lush gardens of Jardines de Sabatini and Plaza de Oriente, mere minutes away from your home.

Armonía

It can be difficult to find accommodation suited to larger groups in the heart of the city, but this smart apartment will tick all the boxes. With plenty of space and flexible sleeping options, this central home is the perfect place to spend some quality time with your guests between your sightseeing excursions. 

You'll love the spacious living area, with double-height ceilings and huge windows that flood the space with natural light. The bike sculptures and selection of houseplants add some quirkiness, while the open-plan layout is perfect for socialising. Uncork a bottle of delicious Spanish wine, and put together some tasty tapas dishes to share at the stylish dining bench. And, when it's time for bed, you can head upstairs to one of the cosy bedrooms, furnished with a blend of vintage and contemporary pieces. 

The famous Puerta del Sol is just an eight-minute walk away from your front door, where you can see famous sights like the Puerta del Sol Clock and the El Oso y El Madroño sculpture. History fans will be happy to know that the Royal Palace is a fifteen-minute walk away, and the Museo Nacional del Prado is the same distance in the opposite direction. And, if you're craving some serenity after all that sightseeing then head to El Retiro Park and wander through the rose gardens before enjoying a picnic by the lake. 

Wheels In Motion

Just a ten-minute walk from Plaza Mayor, this stylish flat isn't messing about when it comes to location. Interesting museums, high-end shopping and many of Madrid's must-see landmarks are a quick stroll away – including Puerta del Sol, Parque de El Retiro and Palacio Real de Madrid, just to name a few. If you love trying new cuisine, you're in luck – this neighbourhood has an array of delectable restaurants and lively bars to while away the evenings in.

Or, if you're partial to homecooked meals, make your way back to this stylish flat and rustle up something tasty in the kitchen. It has everything you'll need – a large island, built-in appliances and plenty of counter space. The rest of the flat is impeccable, too – two glossy bathrooms (one decked out with bold palm leaf wallpaper, another en-suite) feature rainfall showers, the comfortable bedrooms are cosy and pared-back and the bright living area boats a squishy sofa and a lovely Juliet balcony that floods the room with light. We think you'll love calling this apartment home, whether you're in town for a few days or a few weeks.

For a night of rest and blissful sleep head over to the luxurious bedrooms – before you retreat to the land of sweet dreams, enjoy an indulgent bath in one of the spa-like bathrooms. We love the lovely art which creates a pattern running through the whole apartment, and the bathrooms are no exception.

A literal stone’s throw from Madrid’s beating heart (the Plaza Mayor), it doesn’t get more central than this apartment. You’re on the edge of the square where pavement cafés spill out onto the cobbles and the porticoed buildings date back to the 16th century when this was the centre of Old Madrid. The surrounded streets are packed with late-night tapas joints and buzzing bars. Or, head to the fresh produce and street food market, Mercado de San Miguel, a three-minute walk away to bring back some tasty local treats to your bijou abode.

It may be a studio, but the full kitchen is tucked away from the bedroom and living area in its own, modern enclave. So you can turn fresh veg, olives and artisan goods into a feast for two with ease. The living area is pristine white and brightened further by sunlight streaming through traditional, French-style windows. Open these up to create a Juliet-style balcony, perfect for people-watching in the buzzing square below. 

The Mayor's Daughter

Blending timber frames with sleek, contemporary furnishings, this handsome apartment in Madrid’s lively La Latina neighbourhood is an ideal base for those looking to soak up the best of Madrilenian life.
 
We love how shades of natural brown sit alongside elegant neutral notes here, while ample natural light pours in through the French doors in the living room. Open these up to enjoy the breeze as you kick back on the sofa with a glass of Spanish red, or perch by the Juliet balcony with your evening tipple as you people-watch from your privileged position. 
 
The dining table beckons sociable evenings over homemade dinners when you’re not out sampling the local tapas hangouts, while the bedrooms offer a comfortable night’s sleep leaving you feeling ready and relaxed for another day of exploring. 
 
Speaking of sightseeing, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, not least of all your own neighbourhood’s maze of narrow lanes filled with tapas bars and cantinas. Elsewhere, Plaza Mayor is a ten-minute walk, the Royal Palace of Madrid is a fifteen-minute stroll, while the world-famous Museo Nacional del Prado is twenty minutes away on foot. 


Madera Marvel

With its elevated position in the heart of Madrid, this stylish apartment welcomes you to an uplifting stay in the city.

Just a ten–minute walk from the iconic Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor, this is a wonderful place to experience the cultural depth and beauty of the surroundings. And as soon as you step inside, you’ll want to pause and admire the details that make this home unique. From the traditional wooden beams to the elegant styling, every detail inspires a sense of warmth and ease. And whether you’re preparing a Spanish-inspired meal or relaxing on the sofa, there’s a lovely sense of harmony that makes it easy to settle in. 

Days can be spent exploring, shopping, sightseeing and simply enjoying the inspiring energy of the city. El Retiro Park is only a twenty–five–minute away and makes a wonderful sport for an afternoon stroll. Wherever the day takes you, this home provides a calm oasis in the heart of the city. 

Abode in the Sky

In the heart of Madrid’s artsiest neighbourhood, Barrio de las Letras, this studio apartment is the perfect base for a cultural city break. First of all, you’ve got the world-famous Prado museum a five-minute walk away, then there’s the sprawling greenery of Retiro Park, just seven minutes on foot. If locally-grown fresh food and lazy lunches of tapas are your thing, head to Antón Martín Market, an eight-minute walk away.

Perhaps stock up and head back to your quiet bolthole, where a compact but fully-equipped kitchen awaits. Floor-to-ceiling French-style windows let the sunshine stream in, so dining at the table inside is a delight during the day. The decor is neutral and soothing in dove-grey and dusky pinks. The best bit? You can take your fresh olives from the market and a bottle of wine up to the shared rooftop terrace where an outdoor lounge with rooftop views awaits.

The terrace is the first thing that grabs your attention at this fabulous home, housed in a historic building dating back to 1919 – it's the perfect place for a glass (or a pitcher) of sangria. It really is a fantastic, south-facing outdoor space, with a sunshade – relax on the sun loungers or enjoy some alfresco tapas. There's an outside shower too to rinse off the suncream before going indoors. Inside, there's lots of light, and the huge living room is a wonderful space to entertain. We love the original artwork and colourful wallpapers in the bedrooms. This apartment is perfect for a group of friends, family or professionals on a business trip. We were surprised, as well, given its central, Calle Gran Vía location, how quiet it is here. Step out of the door, and you're on Madrid's most famous street, right in the centre of the capital. Here you'll find some of the city’s most iconic buildings, as well as boutiques, restaurants (let your lovely host make reservations) and bars galore. Take in the incredible views over Madrid from the roof terrace of Círculo de Bellas Artes, a cultural centre offering concerts and exhibitions, a five-minute stroll away. Or, get inspired at Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza with its masterpieces by Van Gogh, Caravaggio and Lichtenstein, nine minutes on foot. Architecture lovers, on the other hand, can admire Ayuntamiento de Madrid, or visit the exhibitions at Colegio Oficial de Arquitectos, both under a ten-minute saunter.

Parking On Street

This bright and comfortable apartment is just a stone’s throw from the Royal Palace of Madrid. The official residence of the Head of State is open to the public, so you can explore the spot where centuries of Spanish history took place. The apartment is also just in front of the Sabatini Gardens, and 100 metres from Príncipe Pio train station. Plaza de España is only a five-minute walk away, too. Two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, so things might feel a little crowded – you’re unlikely to be spending much time at home though.

The most remarkable thing about Espinas is the quiet. Despite having three balconies, and being in the middle of Lavapiés, the street it looks onto is actually fairly calm. The building is old, and a lot of the original structure features prominently in the flat, which has been designed to complement the space, rather than dominate it. There is some pretty loud wallpaper though, which stops the design from falling into the dreaded ‘neutral’ category.


Espinas

Based around an open living area, Peaks & Valleys is well proportioned and generally a sociable space. It’s not in pristine condition, as evidenced by the marks on the walls, but that’s an aesthetic consideration, and doesn’t make the home any less comfortable. The metro station in Lavapiés is close to the flat, and while the square outside is a little rough around the edges, there are several lively bars and restaurants.

This chic apartment has two large shopping centres within a few hundred metres – this is a great base if you’re hoping to indulge in some retail therapy in Madrid. It’s in the heart of the city, with the Puerta del Sol just a few steps away. The apartment is modern and minimalist, with a tranquil vibe that means you can unwind when you’re not out seeing the sights. Two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, which may not be the most comfortable set-up for longer stays. 

City Chic Retreat

This apartment is within walking distance of an array of attractions, such as Parque Madrid Rio, Casa de Campo, the Royal Palace and La Almudena Cathedral. Of course, there are plenty of dining options to discover in the area, too. The apartment has a desk if you need to catch up on emails and a well-equipped kitchen for making some tapas. We have to say, we love the main bedroom with its dressing room and en-suite. This home is a great choice whether you’re here for leisure or work.

Metropolitan Magic

Fireplace

Once a convent, now home to a sleek and contemporary apartment, this place is perfect for families or groups of friends looking to stay in the heart of Madrid. We loved the industrial-chic interiors – it’s all poured concrete floors, exposed brick walls and reclaimed timber beams. Kick back on the royal blue sofa or slink off for a siesta in the quiet bedrooms as the appointed chef of your group whips up Spanish delicacies for lunch. 

After the plates are cleared, plan your itinerary at the dining table. We recommend starting with the Royal Palace, a mere ten-minute walk from your doorstep. If you’d like to stretch your legs a little further, it’s a thirty-minute stroll to El Retiro Park. Pause for a coffee on the buzzing Calle Cava Baja before picking a spot to bask in the sunshine beside El Retiro Lake.

Nestled in the heart of Madrid, this stylish apartment couldn't be better placed for some fun in the city. The interiors boast plush furnishings, exposed brick and lots of natural sunlight, whilst outside you'll find a small but cosy terrace. Start the day with a home-cooked breakfast thanks to the contemporary kitchen, then tuck in alfresco with a cup of coffee before heading out to explore.

Step out of the front door and you'll be on the bustling streets of Madrid, within an easy distance of the area's main attractions. Soak up the city's cutting-edge culture with a tour of the Prado Museum, take a stroll around El Retiro Park and sample some of Spain's best restaurants right on your doorstep.

City Sunlight

In the heart of Madrid, just a few metres away from Plaza Mayor and within walking distance of Puerta del Sol, this city apartment couldn't be better located. Keep in mind that some noise should be expected here, but we think it's a small price to pay for this central spot. You'll find a great selection of restaurants on your doorstep if you'd like to sample the local cuisine, but if you'd prefer to dine in, the kitchen is well-equipped for homemade tapas. 

Madrid Serenade

Board Games

Located in the bustling heart of Madrid – just a one-minute walk from the city’s famous Gran Vía shopping street – this bright, comfortable home is the ideal base for those looking to get the most out of the city’s sights.

With its beach-vibe decor – think wood floors, palm feature walls, houseplants and wicker and wood accents – you’ll feel at ease from the moment you walk through the door. We love how much natural light pours in from the glass doors that lead out onto a Juliet balcony and the chic dining table that invites homemade tapas feasts and elegant soirées catered by a private chef (your host can organise this). The bedroom, meanwhile, is just as serene with its tropical statement wall and king-size bed, while the marble-clad bathroom beckons long bubble baths after a day of seeing the sights.

Speaking of exploring, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including Puerta del Sol (eight minutes), Plaza Mayor (ten minutes), the Royal Palace of Madrid (fifteen minutes) and the Museo Nacional del Prado (twenty minutes). With your host able to arrange tickets to events and museums, as well as organise trips to nearby towns, cities and wineries, you’re all set to experience Madrid in style. 


Viva la Gran Vía

Set within the historic buildings that line the avenues of central Madrid, this penthouse shines with royal sophistication. The 19th-century character has been immaculately maintained, and details like the traditional Spanish shutters, crystal chandeliers and refined furnishings speak to the elegance of yesteryear. But there’s also a streak of urban cool running throughout – the living and dining areas feature bold artwork and the kitchen is a shiny minimalist haven. As you walk through the apartment, the glossy theme continues in the bedrooms where a stark black and white motif feels classy. There are nine huge balconies wrapped around this stunning apartment offering spectacular views across the city – secluded corner nooks with bistro seating for two, and a huge terrace fringed with balustrades and scattered with lux outdoor seating. When you feel inspired to explore, the apartment is centrally located and within walking distance of Madrid’s most iconic sights. As the sun sets, enjoy drinks on the biggest balcony and soak in the rich and passionate heritage of this incredible city.

Balustrades and Balconies

Blending elements of Nordic minimalism with a few industrial elements, this is a home that knows a little can go a long way. The mostly white colour scheme lets all the small design elements express themselves well, while enlarging the space with the abundance of natural light. We loved the wire art pieces around this home and the minimalist kitchen.

The Armillary Globe

Ceiling Fans

Nestled in the heart of Madrid – within walking distance of the Plaza de España – this gorgeous, apartment is the perfect setting for your next business trip, family getaway, or couple’s retreat to Spain’s historic capital. We love the industrial feel of the interior here, particularly the exposed brickwork, which blends seamlessly with the leather seating and mahogany drinks cabinet in the stylish sitting room. Kick back and relax under the lounge’s beamed ceiling or step outside and gaze out at the city’s rooftops from the comfort of your private terrace, your camera in one hand and a glass of Rioja in the other. 

If you’re here to explore, you’ll be pleased to discover you’re within striking distance of a whole host of attractions here. Take a tour of the Royal Palace of Madrid, go boating at El Retiro Park, or indulge in a spot of people-watching at Plaza Mayor. However you spend your time here, you’ll love coming home to your gorgeous, fifth-floor apartment, where you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Regal Vistas

Traditional touches meet contemporary style at this chic Madrid apartment. Located in the Centro district, right in the heart of the city, it's the ideal place to unwind between your adventures in the Spanish capital.

You'll love the traditional wooden beams, tiled floor, and large French windows that flood the space with natural light. You can admire the street views below from the Juliet balcony, before getting comfy on the sofa with a glass of Rioja. And, when hunger strikes, the pretty blue kitchen is well-equipped, so you can rustle up some of your favourite dishes. 

Plaza Mayor, Madrid's buzzing main square, is just a street away, and is the perfect first stop on your sightseeing schedule. You can also wander over to the Royal Palace and the adjacent baroque cathedral – they're must-sees for culture fans. Or, head in the opposite direction, to spend some time at the Museo Nacional del Prado before strolling through the city's marvellous botanical gardens.

Watching The World Go By

We'd struggle to think of a better location than Gran Vía. This avenue is the city's lifeline, filed with theatres, shops and great transport links to Madrid's many landmarks. Grey Magnolia isn't only central, it looks good too. Some might find its minimalism a bit boring, but the well-curated designer furniture has plenty of character, making the most of the small square footage. We especially liked the headboard in the bedroom and the chic dining table. 

Grey Magnolia

When you embark on a city break, you want to be close to the central hub of the city. This snug apartment caters to your thirst for adventure – it's just moments from Plaza Mayor, Plaza del Sol in Madrid and other iconic landmarks. 

Despite its central location, the apartment maintains a peaceful hum at all times. When sipping your coffee in the morning or relaxing on the sofa in the evening, you won't believe you're in the heart of a flourishing metropolis. 

Start your days admiring the striking buildings that are on your doorstep. Between each landmark, stop off for some paella, tapas or risotto, complemented by the famous Spanish beers. You can also treat yourself to a jug of sangria if you're feeling a more fruity vibe.

Come the evening, your options in the Spanish capital are boundless. Mingle with locals in the bars, stroll around the city to find hidden gems or simply rest in the tranquility of your home.
