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.

Found in the heart of Madrid, only minutes away from the Royal Palace, the iconic Plaza Mayor, and the Catedral de la Almudena, this home charms with a maximalist approach. Expect gallery walls, a bold colour palette, and an enticing blend of old and new. 

The sleek kitchen might be compact, but with enough space to cobble a light breakfast together. Enjoy it at the striking marble dining table before setting off for a day out in the city. Explore the vibrance of the city – a trait it happily shares with the home – stopping off at cafes and restaurants for lunch when not appreciating the art at a gallery or jumping on public transport to get to another landmark. 

Return to the cosy sofa and fireplace for comfort after a day out, or retreat to your bedroom, where you can get comfortable with a cup of coffee and a good book. However, with the living space perfectly set up for socialising, why not pour a glass of wine, light the fire and break out the board games, chatting late into the morning hours?


The Maximalist

Simple and practical, this home may not have much in the way of entertainment or flashy amenities, but it offers a great location from which to explore Madrid’s sights. A short walk from the Royal Palace of Madrid and within easy reach of Plaza Mayor and Gran Vía, it’s a central, functional base for those looking to spend most of their time venturing about the city. When you are at home, however, you’ll find a cheerful feature wall in the open-plan living area and a handy dining nook for when you’re not out sampling the local tapas bars. And while the main bedroom is a little cramped, the home has the benefit of two bathrooms – certain to speed up any morning ahead of a busy itinerary.

Colour and style come together in perfect harmony in this ideally located apartment just a seven-minute stroll from Plaza de España. 
 
Wood floors, bright white walls and contemporary furnishings make a cheerful welcome in the open-plan living area. Unwind on the comfy sectional sofa with a glass of Spanish wine and gather for a celebratory meal at the glass dining table with its multicoloured seats. 
 
The bedroom, meanwhile, is a pared-back space offering rooftop views over your Malasaña neighbourhood from its Juliet balcony and a comfortable bed to retreat to at the end of the night. Factor in the bathroom’s rainfall shower – sure to get any day off on the right foot – and you've got everything you need for a blissful city stay.
 
When it comes to sightseeing, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including Gran Vía with its shops and striking architecture (nine minutes), the Royal Palace of Madrid (ten minutes), the ancient Egyptian Temple of Debod (also ten minutes) and bustling Plaza Mayor (eighteen minutes).

Expect just as much excitement from the apartment's interior, too, as chic and contemporary designs present a truly comfortable space to kick back in between exploring the sights of Madrid.

Perched high above Plaza de España in one of Madrid's tallest buildings, this stunning city-centre apartment is perfectly set up to spark your creative side. It's as if the host managed to condense their joie de vivre into the living room using nothing but a few carefully placed photos and artefacts that undoubtedly have great stories behind them. The bold prints and stylish furniture only add to the loud, proud and metropolitan ambience. The space itself is also absolutely stunning, with a large, light-filled kitchen/living/dining space that is the undoubted heart of the home. Large picture windows frame the views over the neighbourhood from your vantage point on the eleventh floor. When you want to get a little closer to the action, there's a balcony where you can sit out and enjoy your morning caffeine hit or pre-dinner aperitifs. Continue through to the en-suite bedroom, and the soothing neutral tones set you up for a restful night's sleep, with a spacious dressing area to try on outfit options for the day ahead once you've raised yourself from the comfy bed. The immediate area around the apartment is leafy and residential, so you're in for a more authentic Madrid experience than the usual tourist hotspots. However, the apartment offers the best of both worlds, as many of Madrid's main sights – including the Palacio Real and Plaza Mayor – are within a fifteen-minute walk, while the likes of the Museo Nacional del Prado are under half an hour away on foot.

Nestled in Chamberí, this little duplex is a great spot for those visiting for business and pleasure. From here, you’re within walking distance of restaurants, bars and iconic sights, including the Royal Palace of Madrid, Plaza Mayor and the San Fernando Fine Art Royal Academy. The apartment is modern and practical, though it does lack natural light. A fifth guest can be accommodated on the sofa bed, and the two en-suite bathrooms will help speed mornings along, so you can head out and spend more time exploring all that Madrid has to offer.

Fire Extinguisher

This home might not be the largest in our collection, but it more than makes up for its petite size with its fabulous location. Situated right on the Plaza de España, it puts you right in the heart of Madrid and makes the perfect place to begin your adventures. 

Step inside, and you'll find a sleek, modern space with parquet flooring and high ceilings. The sofa is great for relaxing in the evening and folds out into a bed, for flexible sleeping arrangements. There's also a little dining table and a chic green-tiled kitchen, where you can whip up tasty meals to refuel after a busy day. And, the stylish blue and mustard yellow colour scheme throughout the apartment creates a sense of calm that will make you feel right at home. 

The Plaza de España right outside the flat is a great place to familiarise yourself with the city – go for a stroll, and soak up the atmosphere of this popular meeting place. Culture fans can take a five-minute walk to the Royal Palace of Madrid to soak up the sense of history, and enjoy a wander through the Jardines de Sabatini afterwards. And, when you get hungry, there's a large selection of nearby restaurants nearby, serving everything from traditional Spanish dishes to Korean meals and Peruvian fare.

This apartment is an urban masterpiece. Designed to incorporate the serenity of the earth and all its textures, the decor will leave you feeling totally zen. Where do we start, when every inch of this Madrilenian home has been thoughtfully pieced together? As you turn away from the delightful cityscape view on your terrace, you leave behind a dining setting bathed in the Spanish sun. Entering the lounge, you are met with an open-plan space. Punctuated with delightful light reflecting mirrors, cosy candles and elaborate greenery, this is the ideal spot to share a bottle of wine with loved ones. When you’re ready to freshen up for the evening, take your pick of a calming rainfall shower or a deep standalone tub to relax the day away. 

When you wake in the morning, you’ll feel refreshed in one of two African-inspired bedrooms. Earthy jungle tones, light space and large luxurious beds will ensure you manage some shut-eye. Moving into the kitchen for a morning coffee, you are met with the same elegance – the marble backdrop is exquisite. As you wander, mug in hand, back to your terrace, explore a little further – this wrap-around balcony provides panoramic views of the sunrise and comfortable wicker furniture to kick off your slippers and take in the morning air. Situated in central Madrid, you have an array of delightful gourmet pit stops on your doorstep – so take advantage of what’s on offer.

Swimming Pool

Conveniently located in the heart of the trendy Chamberi neighbourhood of ever-lively Madrid, this stylish holiday apartment provides you with a well-equipped base from which to set off and discover exactly what makes the Spanish capital tick. Its fantastic location close to both the main tourist attractions, as well as the CBD of Madrid, means that this place is equally great for a romantic escape as a couple of couples, a friends' getaway to the Southern European sunshine, a business trip, a family holiday, or even a solo retreat for those looking to delve beneath the surface of this exuberant city. Spend an afternoon strolling through the elegant streets, hopping from cafe to cafe, diving into chic boutiques, and stopping for light bites as the mood takes you.

Upon entering, a bright and welcoming living area greets you with a sophisticated palette of sunny yellow and sleek black, mirroring the effortlessly cool and fashion-forward feeling of the city itself. Then of course there's that inviting furnished balcony, accessible from both bedrooms and the living area, where we've already imagined ourselves reclining with a chilled glass of Sangria in hand, gazing out over the city and deciding which tapas bar we'll be frequenting tonight. Ah, decisions, decisions.

The Mustard Seed of Madrid

Stylishly modern, this apartment just a seven-minute stroll from Plaza de España is an ideal base for those looking for a comfortable stay within easy reach of Madrid’s most celebrated sights. 
 
Wood floors, contemporary furnishings and a glossy white finish create a strikingly fashionable welcome in the open-plan living area. We love the carefully chosen ornaments that give the space plenty of character – like the shiny copper coffee table, the freestanding lamp, as well as the assortment of throw pillows on the plump sofa. Kick back with a glass of Spanish wine after a long day of sightseeing, or if you have work to catch up on, you’ll find a desk space here ready to make working from home a breeze. 
 
The chic breakfast bar invites sociable mornings over fresh coffee and locally bought pastries, while the bedroom, tucked behind a fringe curtain beckons a restful night’s sleep. Factor in the sleek bathroom with its rainfall shower, and you’ve got everything you need for a relaxing stay. 
 
Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of cultural hotspots within easy walking distance, including Gran Vía (nine minutes), the Royal Palace of Madrid (ten minutes), the ancient Egyptian Temple of Debod (also ten minutes), and Plaza Mayor (eighteen minutes).

Workplace

Sweeping city views, a communal swimming pool, and an on-site gym – there’s so much to love about this Centro apartment. And for those in the city on business, you can take your pick of two workstations when you need to catch up on emails. After a busy day taking in the local sights including the Royal Palace of Madrid, Puerto del Sol, Plaza Mayor or the Reina Sofia Museum, the private balcony is the perfect spot to end the day, sipping sangria as the sun sets.

Spanish Reflections

Blender

Nestled in Gaztambide, a vibrant neighbourhood in Chamberí, this home is an ideal base for exploring the city. As a party of four, two people will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. And, as this home isn’t the biggest, and the bedroom is separated from the open-plan living, dining room and kitchen with a curtain, we think it’s best suited to families or groups happy to share their space. The kitchen is fine for whipping up light bites, but for more extensive meals, we’d recommend dining out at a local Spanish eatery. 

The Spanish Delight

Safe

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

Keen to be in the hustle and bustle? This apartment, just a ten-minute stroll from Gran Vía, may be a great choice. It's easy to get to all the landmarks on foot or by metro, and there are a lot of bars and restaurants nearby. Unsurprisingly it can get a tad noisy – but that's part of the city experience. We love the bright living area, and the two snug bedrooms channel Spanish sunshine with their yellow paint. Size-wise, it's rather compact but still comfortable – just note that it's on the second floor and lacks a lift.

Amber Thistle

Access to Beach

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.



The Palace Window 

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. 

Get Up & Go

Get to experience all that Madrid has in store with a stay at this stylish and modern ground-floor apartment, situated right in the vibrant heart of the old town. This home is an ideal base for a family or an intimate group of friends wanting to make the most of the central location while at the same time enjoying the comforts of their luxurious urban retreat. 

Step through the front door to be greeted by a cosy and light-filled living room with striking wallpaper patterns and elegant furnishings. You’ll want to kick off your shoes straight away and lounge on the plush sofa which invites you to spend long evenings of wine and conversation with your loved ones. 

You’ll be able to share delicious meals with your whole party at the dining table and the well-equipped kitchen will make rustling them up a work of moments. There’s also a private internal patio, with lovely plants, which offers streams of gently filtered daylight to flood the apartment. 

Factor in the luxurious bedrooms and sparkling modern bathroom and you’ve got all you need for a perfectly restful urban stay. Outside your front door, you’ll find yourself in a prime spot from which to explore, with world-famous museums, iconic landmarks and excellent restaurants and bars all on your doorstep.

This beautiful two-bedroom apartment, nestled right in the heart of Madrid’s Centro and overlooking Plaza Tirso de Molina is a perfect place for a family or a small group of friends to base themselves while they discover all of the magic this city has to offer. With its prime location, luxurious features and all the exclusive shared facilities, this pad is a hard one to beat. 

Staying here you’ll enjoy access to a state-of-the-art gym, a heated swimming pool and a spa room with a hot tub, all designed to make your stay a relaxing one. Inside your apartment, you’ll be enchanted by the light-filled living room, which will welcome you with a warm embrace. Kick back and snuggle up on the comfy sofa or step into the modern kitchenette and rustle up a delicious meal, to be shared with your loved ones at the dining table. 

A night of restful sleep awaits in the plush bedrooms – wake up and brew up some fresh coffee while you plan the day’s adventures. Just outside, you’ll find yourself within walking distance of Plaza Mayor, as well as an abundance of shops, restaurants and flamenco bars of the old town.

As you saunter past the ornate, rococo grandeur of the Palacio Real de Madrid, peering into kerbside cafés, wine bars, and bustling tapas restaurants en route, you’ll end up in Plaza Mayor, just seven minutes away.

The lively main square of Spain’s capital is exactly what you’d expect – historical 15th-century magnificence with a bronze statue of King Philip III in the middle. And of course, the exciting mix of drinking spots and shaded alfresco dining continues. You might be wondering why we’re so interested in this specific spot – well, this is your address.

This modern apartment trades in centuries of history for bright and shiny interiors (you’ve got plenty of history outside). Naturally, the living space features two huge glass doors leading you to a private balcony facing on to the celebrated square. A cushy white sofa and dining chairs around a glass table bring a futuristic feel, while pink orchids contrast with an organic edge.

But while you sip tempranillo and nibble olives with views over the king’s statue, your host has further plans make you feel regal. They can arrange for private city tours, dry cleaning, grocery deliveries, and even themed dinner nights – royal banquet anyone?

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

Drawing inspiration from the scenic Congolese landscapes, this snuggly apartment presents an old-world charm with a delightful cosy ambience in every corner.

Despite the apartment's central city location, the space invites guests to retreat and escape the mundane through its cosy interiors and soothing atmosphere from the moment you step through the door. Stretch out in the living area with a cup of coffee (or Spanish wine come evening time) and let calming vibes clear your mind. With earthy hues and plenty of leafy green plants, you'll feel as though you're at one with nature, even while staying in the heart of the city. 

With the option to cook at home or dine out, you'll get an authentic taste of Madrid by experiencing life like a local. You'll also find a convenient office space, perfect for those who will be working from home during their stay or in town on business. 

Between taking work calls and soaking up the city's sought-after monuments, Madrid's Trafalgar district boasts traditional shops and an array of tapas dining opportunities waiting to be discovered. So what are you waiting for? Put on your comfortable trainers as the best way to take it all in from here is on foot.

Malasaña is famous for being slightly outrageous, which is probably why Queen of the Castle is in it. A tour of this home reveals a glamorous hybrid design theme that balances modern baroque-inspired pieces with jungle and safari themes – dear lovers of minimalism, you might want to stay elsewhere. But if gold-coated flora and fauna with an occasional crown-cum-skull ensemble sound like heaven to you, then you'll find Queen of the Castle an absolute delight. Not to mention that you'll be within walking distance to Puerta del Sol and the vibrant neighbourhood of Chueca. 

Queen of the Castle

What a fabulous location this refurbished apartment has – Puerta del Sol, one of the best-known squares in the city, is just a two-minute stroll away. Or, a five-minute walk will take you to one of Madrid's most famous streets, Gran Vía. Watch a production at the Teatro EDP Gran Vía or have lunch at one of its many eateries. Alternatively, the iconic Plaza del Dos de Mayo is a fifteen-minute wander. Here, you'll find plenty of bars, as well as a lively weekend market for fresh produce.  

Take some goodies back to this elegant apartment and whip up a bocadillo de calamares (calamari sandwich) in the sleek, white kitchen and enjoy it at the dining table with its plush green velvet chairs. We love the French doors to the balcony – they allow so much light in, and the views are fantastic. Plants give this place a homely feel, while modern prints enliven the white walls – this home is ideal for two couples or a family wanting plenty of attractions within easy walking distance.



Terciopelo Verde

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. 

Ladrillo

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.

The Lady of Letters 

Molten Brass is neat and tidy. There isn’t a lot that jumps out at you, but that’s not necessarily a problem – the atmosphere inside is pretty calm. That stands in contrast to the atmosphere on the street below, which is pretty intense, but that’s because you’re in the heart of Malasaña, so there’s tonnes to do. As is common with any flat that is rented out all the time, there’s a lack of personality but the attention to detail, and generally pleasant, if simple, design help make the flat feel more homely.


Molten Brass

Baby Bath

Heated Towel Rail

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

This chic and attractive apartment has everything you might need for a comfortable city break. It’s located in Chueca, one of Madrid’s liveliest neighbourhoods, full of cafes, boutiques, and bars. Despite its central location, this is a peaceful home-from-home, ideal for unwinding after busy sightseeing days and evenings spent feasting on tapas. It’s bright and welcoming, flooded with light, and has been beautifully decorated in muted tones. Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the living room – if you’re hoping for more space, we’d recommend a maximum occupancy of two. 

The Bohemian Retreat

Situated in Madrazo, just a five-minute stroll from the bustling shop-lined avenue of Gran Vía and its majestic Metropolis Building, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. It's right at the heart of the action, though, tucked away on a side street and perched on the third floor, feels delightfully peaceful. Here, you're within walking distance of all the main sights, including El Retiro Park and the Plaza Mayor, both twelve minutes from your doorstep on foot.

From the outset, this home exudes grandeur with its pastel-hued facade and marble tiled entryway. The interior is just as elegant, boasting a calming canvas of high ceilings, wooden floors and stylish decor. Large windows usher in floods of sunlight, and we love the open-plan living space, where floor-to-ceiling French doors open up to not one but four balconies. After a restful slumber, spend mornings roosted here, sipping your coffee in the sunshine with picturesque street-facing views. 

Spend your days strolling through Madrid's palm-lined streets, passing neoclassical architecture, emblematic museums and bustling plazas bearing ample cafes and tapas bars. When you need a breather from the city heat, return to this sanctuary of serenity. Enjoy an energising workout in the shared gym, or kick back on the plush sofas with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the rooftops. 

Chance Encounter

This is a calm, dreamy home with lots of nooks to hide away and relax. Think gentle, coherent style and wonderful details, such as the rock wall in the living room or the breakfast bar in the open kitchen. The huge door-to-ceiling windows in the living room bring in the daylight without the noise, making you almost forget that you're located in the heart of Malasaña. We recommend the nearby Toma Cafe for a taste of the local atmosphere.

Situated in Puerta del Sol, this central apartment invites you to experience the joys of Madrid with ease. From here, you'll be within walking distance of Plaza Mayor, the Royal Palace of Madrid and Museo Nacional del Prado. You’re also just a few steps from Sol metro station, so the whole city is at your fingertips. Inside, you’ll find a modern open-plan space with a balcony and a dining area to share leisurely meals. Keep in mind that two guests will be sleeping on the living room sofa bed here, so it does lack some privacy. And if you’re visiting with little ones, your host can provide a cot upon request.

Sol Retreat

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. 



Vanilla & Macadamia 

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

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.
