Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated just outside of the city centre, this apartment is perfect for those who want to be close – but not too close – to the heart of the action. When you are ready for a sightseeing excursion, the Almendrales metro station is a short walk away. While the interiors of this home aren’t the most eye-catching, the place is comfortable enough to rest and recharge after a busy day. At capacity, four guests will sleep on sofa beds in the living space, which will compromise any room for socialising, so we’d recommend this home for a solo traveller or couple only.

About Atocha
When thinking of Atocha, the mammoth train station immediately comes to mind. While it’s a transport hub connecting Madrid to all others parts of Spain, its appeal lies in more than just logistics. The station itself is full of restaurants (some are the best in the area), and the sprawling streets around it will slowly lead to some of the best museums in town. Staying here will place you within walking distance of Prado, The Reina Sofia Museum, and Retiro Park.
