Home truths
This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.
The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
This apartment is overlooked by neighbouring homes, so it doesn't feel completely private.
Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
Please note that the building amenities such as the pool and gym may have specific hours of operation and might not be available year-round.

Local guide
About Salamanca
Salamanca is Madrid’s most glamorous and prestigious quarter. Usually associated with aristocratic façades, wide avenues, and luxurious living (atypical for Madrid’s cosy centre), the neighbourhood attracts domestic and international elite. It’s also home to many embassies and private schools, as well as niche museums and designer boutiques along its ‘Golden Mile’. The demanding clientele has made the food scene equally exclusive, but while you’re likely to find quite a few Michelin-star restaurants in the area, there are lots of relaxed tapas bars for those less willing to splash the cash.
