Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
In central Madrid, this stylish apartment is ideal for a comfortable and convenient break in the city. Families and friend groups will love it here – your host can provide a cot for little ones to make family breaks easier, and the kitchen is well-equipped for large meals. Parking will be difficult and you can expect some outside noise, but we think the location more than makes up for this. On the surrounding streets, you'll find restaurants, bars, theatres, and shops of all kinds. Hotspots like the Plaza Mayor are within easy walking distance, and with public transport nearby you'll be seeing the sights in no time.

Local guide
About Lavapiés
Like many neighbourhoods on the rise, Lavapiés proudly displays its rough edges. The Times Magazine has recently included it in the 50 best neighbourhoods to live in the world, and it’s not hard to understand its appeal. It’s a melting pot of cultures, bravely experimenting with international influences. Lavapiés is full of contrast — some streets have already embraced a more luxurious vibe with chic boutiques and fusion restaurants popping up every month, while others are still filled with artistic squats and street vendors. It’s the ultimate antidote to boredom.
