Rio River Retreat

  • 7 guests

  • 3 bedrooms

  • 2 bathrooms

  • sq/ft

This apartment along the Manzanares River is an idyllic spot for a quieter Madrid retreat. Located just outside of the city centre, you can enjoy Madrid Río Park and Matadero Cultural Centre, while the Marqués de Vadillo metro will transport you directly into the heart of the city when you wish. Roomy enough for seven people, it’s worth noting, however, that two guests will need to sleep on the sofa bed in the living room here. The highlight for us is the rooftop terrace, just the spot for evening sangrias and tapas feasts.

Local guide


About Madrid

Sometimes overlooked for its coastal competition, Madrid is the beating heart of Spain in both geography and historic charm. Madrileños are welcoming and friendly but sophistication circulates the warm Iberian air. The Prado Museum draws big crowds who flock to pore over works by the Spanish masters Goya, El Greco and Velázquez. Then unwind in the 350 acres of Buen Retiro Park that was the playground of the Spanish monarchy...
