Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You’ll find this apartment in the Lista neighbourhood, making it an ideal place to stay whether you’re in the Spanish capital for work or leisure. Indeed, for business travellers, the desk in this home provides the perfect spot for remote working – just don’t work too hard when you could be soaking up the sun on the private balcony, instead. Locally, El Retiro Park serves up some welcome greenery in the midst of the city, and you’ll find museums aplenty for when you’re ready to indulge in a little culture.

Home truths
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.
Since the photoshoot, there may be minor differences in furnishings seen in the photos and what you find in the apartment, as part of the host's home upkeep.
Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.

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.
