This home offers a simple base for travellers with busy schedules. While there's little privacy to be enjoyed for up to four guests, the packed kitchen has everything you'll need to whip up a hearty breakfast. Plus, the balcony promises a bit of outside space for fresh-air downtime. What we love is the nearby restaurants and public transport links, inviting you to explore the city further. For those itching to get the most out of sightseeing, luggage storage can be arranged.

A Minute of Modernity

Dishwasher

You'll find this apartment on the outskirts of central Madrid, where you can enjoy the peace away from the hustle and bustle but still get there within minutes. Though it isn't the most charming space, it is well-kept and comfortable for a couple or solo wanderer. It can also sleep two more guests on the sofa bed, but it would make it a little less private and a little more cramped. Still, you have a balcony with outdoor seating when you need breathing room. An eight-minute walk will get you to Nueva Numancia, where public transport can help with your exploring needs.

A Spanish Affair

This cosy studio apartment makes for a pleasant base for a romantic visit to Madrid. There’s a handy kitchenette for whipping up light snacks, and a dining table that doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace. There’s a petite balcony, ideal for sipping your morning coffee or for enjoying a glass of Spanish red before heading out to dinner. This apartment isn’t the most soulful space, but it’s a practical and comfortable base in the city.

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.

After all that exploring, whip up a fresh glass of orange juice with the juicer in the kitchen and have a rest on your private balcony. We love this space with its verdant topiaries and views over the district – it's perfect for an alfresco lunch or dinner. Inside, large windows allow light to flood in. This place has plenty of mod cons, such as electric closing windows and chromotherapy showers. We’d say this home is ideal for business professionals, a family or a group of friends.

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.
