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.

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.

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).

Mirror Street was created with a sense of style – mixing minimalist furniture with a few ornamented elements works well and gives it a sense of sophistication. Their attention to detail is evident and is best reflected in the choice of high-quality glassware. This home is located a short walk away from Plaza Mayor, but the Royal Palace and other sights aren't much farther either. 

Mirror Street

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

Carbon Monoxide Detector

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

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. 

Royal Indigo

Patio / Terrace

What a great location this apartment has in Madrid. The Royal Palace is just seven minutes on foot, while the Almudena Cathedral and the Plaza Mayor are within walking distance, too. As you'd expect from such a central location, you will hear some city noise while staying here. After all that exploring, you can sit in this home's shared courtyard and get your breath back. Inside, we love the living area's double-height ceilings and galleried landing, and there's a desk here if you need to catch up on work. We'd say the adjacent ground-floor bedroom isn't fully private, as it's a cubicle room with three-quarter-height walls – otherwise, this is a great home for couples, a family or business colleagues.

Welcome Hamper

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

Location is all important for city breaks, and this apartment has a winning location. It’s in the heart of La Latina, one of the most traditional neighbourhoods in Madrid. You’ll be just a short stroll from Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor and will have your pick of bars, restaurants, and cafes nearby. This comes in particularly handy because there’s not a huge amount of space for socialising in the apartment – but you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable place to rest your head. 

La Latina's Heart

There are plenty of tourist attractions within walking distance of this home. Go for riverside walks at the Parque Madrid Rio nearby, or visit the zoo and amusement park at Casa de Campo. Other places of interest include the Royal Palace and La Almudena Cathedral. There are plenty of eateries to sample, too, or head back to this apartment and cook some tapas dishes. All in all, we'd say this home is ideal for a business professional, solo traveller or couple.

Madrid Daydream

Private Entrance

Situated in one of Madrid's most vibrant areas, this charismatic home is a unique way to experience the Spanish capital. Tailor-made for friends or family with a penchant for art and original design, it oozes character from every angle.

Rustic stone walls look into deluxe wooden furnishings, creating a homely vibe that puts you instantly at ease. The entire home spreads across two floors, which exudes a cosy energy without being crowded. Once you've finished marvelling at your premium home, the magnetic energy of Madrid is just a moment away.

Major landmarks, such as the iconic Royal Palace, can be easily reached on foot. Embark on a day of sightseeing, fuelled by pit-stops at the authentic cafes and restaurants for fresh sangria and tasty paella. When the sun shines on the charming metropolis, there are an abundance of luscious parks to rest your legs.

If you'd prefer a low-key evening, you can rustle up some tapas in the kitchen and share food and conversation over the dining table. 


Artistic Heights

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

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

Enjoy riverside walks at the nearby Parque Madrid Rio when you stay at this modern apartment. Other attractions within walking distance include Casa de Campo, the Royal Palace and La Almudena Cathedral. There are various eateries to sample out and about, too, or head back to this apartment, where you'll find a well-equipped kitchen in the open-plan living space. A highlight here is the main bedroom with its dressing room and en-suite. This home offers a comfortable stay in a great location.

The Story Of Madrid

You'll have plenty of attractions within walking distance of this apartment. We're talking about Parque Madrid Rio, Casa de Campo, the Royal Palace and La Almudena Cathedral. So that's some of the sights to see in and around the area, but what about where you'll be staying? Well, the home is light and bright, and there's a well-equipped kitchen to rustle up some tasty tapas. We particularly like the bedrooms and modern bathrooms here. There's everything you need for a comfy stay.

Metropolitan Oasis

When it comes to location, it doesn’t get better than this. Overlooking the bustling Plaza Mayor, this apartment with its own sun-soaked balcony is primed for people-watching. Begin your mornings with a coffee alfresco before rustling up a traditional breakfast in the sleek white-washed kitchen. Make yourself comfortable on the elegant couch and plan your itinerary – we recommend starting with a trip to the Royal Palace of Madrid. 

Spend warm afternoons moseying around the city, stopping for a leisurely lunch in an old-school tapas bar, then brushing up on your art history knowledge at the Prado Museum, a twenty-minute walk from your doorstep. After kicking back in El Retiro park, shop along the Gran Via or catch a Flamenco show in a long-standing tablao. 

Lantana Bloom

Bathrobes

Furnished with attention to detail and an appreciation for natural materials, this home knows how to make the best out of its assets. While the two balconies make sure that there's plenty of light in the living room and kitchen, wooden details in each room add to a coherent style that is most obviously expressed through the exposed wooden beams. We felt that the two bedrooms could benefit from an update, but the living room with the open-plan kitchen is one of the most stylish spaces we've seen in Madrid so far. 

The Byzantine

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

Ideally located in a central spot with countless historic and cultural hotspots on your doorstep, this bright and welcoming apartment is an ideal base for those looking for a fuss-free stay in the city. Contemporary decor and wood floors greet you in the bright living area where French doors lead out onto a Juliet balcony – the perfect spot to perch by with your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. Gather together for Spanish omelettes and homemade tapas at the kitchen table when you’re not out sampling the local food scene, and relish retreating to the bedrooms for a good night’s sleep after a busy day of sightseeing adventures. 

Speaking of exploring, make a beeline for the beautiful Royal Palace of Madrid, or soak up the bustling atmosphere of nearby Plaza Mayor. You’re also within easy reach of Gran Vía’s myriad shops and iconic architecture, while authentic La Latina – bursting with tapas bars and cantinas – is also an easy walk from your door.


Blue Magnolia 

This Madrid apartment is perfect for solo travellers and couples. It's small but packed with style, from colourful artwork to contemporary details. Layout-wise, it's similar to a studio – a glass wall divides the space, but it has curtains for privacy. You'll have a glimpse of the cathedral, too – proof that you're right in the heart of the action here. All the must-see spots are within walking distance. Mercado de la Cebada is practically next door, Plaza Mayor is ten minutes on foot, and an array of bars and restaurants are at your fingertips.

Cebada & Cathedral

What this compact apartment lacks in size, it makes up for in style. Cool and contemporary, we think it works best for solo travellers, couples, and digital nomads – especially those keen to explore Madrid on foot. The living space has funky neon signs and industrial-chic accents. Though snug, the kitchen is well-suited to rustling up light bites – there's also a high-top table that can be used as a work-from-home space. The cherry on top is the location in La Latina. You'll find restaurants and tapas bars aplenty here, plus all the must-see landmarks like Plaza Mayor and the Royal Palace are about a ten-minute walk away.

Neon & Lime

Stay Wild isn’t the most inspiring home in our Madrid Collection. The decoration is a bit on the generic side and we’re definitely not ecstatic about the fake plants. All of this can be forgiven though, with its location just moments from Plaza Mayor. The balconies offer views onto Calle Mayor and even a glimpse of Casa de Campos. This makes it ideal for those in search of a functional base to explore the city.

Stay Wild

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).

Bursting with light-filled energy, this central Madrid spot will have you awe-inspired from the moment you arrive. In fact, it's hard to believe that the apartment's location resides within the city centre at all, as here you'll be surrounded by natural life and greenery. 

With a beautifully serene private balcony, you can enjoy alfresco meals and relax with your holiday read in one of the garden chairs. Fitness buffs are in luck, too, as there is a fabulous on-site gym for guests to make the most of 365 days a year too. 

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. So whether you're cooking up your own Spanish delicacies, getting stuck into some work at the dining area (with enough space to set up a laptop) or simply chilling out with your favourite playlist on in the background –  it's safe to say you'll feel right at home when staying here. 


Light Energy 

Occupying a privileged position in Madrid’s famous Plaza Mayor, this beautifully styled apartment puts you in the heart of the city, with countless points of cultural and historic interest right on your doorstep. 
 
Housed in a building dating back to the 17th century, elegance and modernity come together in perfect harmony here. Dressed in a sophisticated white and grey palette, the living area strikes a stunning chord with its modern art, contemporary furnishings and ample natural light. Open up the French doors to step out onto a private balcony overlooking Plaza Mayor – the perfect spot to people-watch over your morning coffee or celebratory evening sundowner. 
 
The bedroom area, meanwhile, is just as chic with its beautifully dressed bed, while the sleek kitchenette is all set to whip up intimate meals when you’re not delighting in the local tapas restaurants or sampling the Spanish delicacies at the San Miguel Market (a three-minute walk away).
 
When it comes to sightseeing, you need only walk out your front door to be standing within one of the city’s most iconic squares, while both Gran Vía and the Royal Palace of Madrid are a ten-minute walk away. You’re also a four-minute stroll from bustling Puerta del Sol, and the world-renown Museo Nacional del Prado is just under twenty minutes away on foot. 


Plaza Privilege 

Cafetiere

Private Washing Machine

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

Tucked away in the heart of the La Latina neighbourhood, this contemporary home is an ideal base for friends or family on a Madrid getaway. Sure, as a party of five, one person will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room, but it’s a small price to pay for this home’s location. Sightseeing comes easily here – you’re a mere kilometre from the iconic Prado Museum, and with Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor within easy reach, shopping and sampling some authentic Spanish cuisine is a must. 

La Latina Life

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 

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. 


Botón De Oro

Situated a stone’s throw from Madrid’s Royal Palace and surrounded by the narrow streets of La Latina, this charming duplex apartment is the perfect place to base yourself while you’re exploring all the wonders that this city has to offer. 

From the cosy attic bedroom you’ll be able to admire the breathtaking views over the roofs of the old town, while the living area on the lower level invites you to kick off your shoes and relax after a long day of dashing about the city. We love the wooden ceiling, along with its beams and stylish light fixtures, adding to the warm and pleasant ambience. 

While this space is compact there is enough room to feel comfortable. You’ll be able to whip quick and delicious snacks in the well-equipped kitchenette and enjoy them at the elegant dining table. This can also serve as a great spot to catch up on any work you might have to do during your stay. 

Outside your cosy nest, you’ll find yourself right in the heart of Madrid, with most of its iconic sights within walking distance. If you feel like staying local, La Latina has got you covered with a wide range of dining and entertainment options. 


You Make Me Smile For Real

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

Located in the heart of La Latina, a traditional neighbourhood in the centre of Madrid, you'll be just a few meters from Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol with this home as your base. With an open-plan kitchen and living area, plus a private courtyard terrace, it's easy to chill out between excursions here. While this home features stylish and contemporary designs, it lacks natural daylight – so it is best suited to those who intend to spend much of their time out and about in the city. It's also worth noting that the bunk beds are situated in the hallway, so we think these beds would be better suited to children. 


The Wicker Sun

You'll be in good company with a stay at this elegant apartment, overlooking one of Madrid's most iconic baroque churches and with the emblematic Royal Palace just around the corner. With so many hotspots on your doorstep, it's no surprise this place is slap bang in Madrid's Centro district. Dive into its history-rich streets dotted with royal palaces and uncover leafy plazas at every turn – there's a sunny spot at an outdoor cafe waiting just for you when thoughts turn to a crisp glass of vino and tapas plates. More of a sweet tooth? Then the famed Chocolatería San Ginés for churros with chocolate is dangerously close, just a five-minute stroll away.

Back home, behind the building's opulent 1880s façade, a crisp, contemporary home awaits. Flanked by Juliet balcony doors opening onto the neighbouring Iglesia de San Nicolás, natural daylight bounces off the bleached wood floors right up to those high ceilings to glorious effect. With a free-flowing living space, king-sized bedrooms, and two marble-clad walk-in shower rooms to kickstart your day, this place feels vast by Madrid standards. And you're sorted for work with a dedicated desk tucked away in the bedroom – though that dining table with a view is as good a spot as any to play catch-up on emails. Just don't work too hard – Madrid is waiting.

A Royal Promise

There are plenty of attractions within a short walk of this apartment. You’ll find the Royal Palace and the Plaza Mayor, as well as the Museo de San Isidro and Jardín de las Vistillas. The neighbourhood is also well-connected by public transport to the rest of the city. After a busy day, this apartment has a spacious open-plan living space to relax in – it’s well-lit by two sets of French doors. Two of the bedrooms are en-suite and there’s a great family bathroom with a freestanding bathtub, too.

Royal Accents

Herb Garden

Shifting Gears has clearly been designed by someone with an eye for interiors. Even though the footprint is pretty small, the space has been manipulated cleverly to make it feel much bigger. Some of the design is more what you’d expect to find in Copenhagen than in Madrid (the wall-mounted bike feels like a particular candidate for an Instagram post). There’s even a balcony, which although too small for socialising, has a lovely view out over La Latina.


Shifting Gears

Paid Parking

Doorman

The Plaza de España, the Royal Palace of Madrid and the Temple of Debod are just a few of the key places of interest within walking distance of this apartment. There’s a variety of shops, cafes, restaurants and bars to explore in the locale too. Or you could try your hand at cooking some Spanish cuisine in the well-appointed kitchen in the open-plan living space at this apartment. And if you need to work from home at any time, there’s a desk in the corner of the main bedroom. 

Spanish Mint

While this home won’t be winning any awards for modern design, its central locale makes it an ideal base for those looking to make the most out of Madrid’s cultural hotspots. Close to Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol and the Royal Palace of Madrid, you’ve got some of the city’s most iconic sights within easy reach on foot, and plenty of nearby transport links to take you across the wider area. If art brings you to Madrid, you’ll find yourself at home amongst the apartment’s many prints and posters, while the bathtub feels like a good way to end a busy day of sightseeing, maybe even with a glass of Spanish wine in hand. 


El Clásico

While the original wooden doors of the building may hark back to a different era, this apartment is full of modern charm and 21-century style. Located in front of the beautiful Plaza de la Villa and just a five-minute walk from Plaza Mayor, it couldn’t be more conveniently located to make the most out of Madrid’s sights.

Inside, a sociable open-plan living area invites you to kick back and relax, whether around the dining table for fresh coffee and pastries each morning or on the chic sofa for a glass of wine after a day of exploring. Both bedrooms are simple yet wonderfully comfortable and we’re particularly fond of the main bedroom’s French doors that lead out onto a scenic Juliet balcony. Factor in the sleek marble-clad bathrooms, and you’ve got everything you need for a carefree stay. 

When it comes to sightseeing, wander around nearby Plaza Mayor or Puerta del Sol (an eight-minute walk), visit the Royal Palace of Madrid (a five-minute walk) and sample the countless tapas bars and restaurants right on your front step.
