Guests rave about the location of this sophisticated apartment, and it's easy to see why. With all the Old Town hotspots, including Plaza de Santa Ana, Puerta del Sol, Gran Vía and Plaza de Canalejas, just moments from your door, this is as central as it gets. Despite being right in the thick of things, the apartment is surprisingly quiet, thanks to its position overlooking a quiet internal courtyard. The typically Madridian dining terrace is a nice touch for morning coffees. And there's no dodgy sofa-bed set-ups here – each bedroom with a separate bathroom is as elegant as the next.
