Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home is a prime example of rustic elegance – we could tell that the host had a vision and pulled all the stops in order to achieve it. The harmony of wood and wicker not only looks good, but also creates a warm atmosphere, working in partnership with the well-stocked kitchen and the soothing bathrooms. The Wickers Elephant is only a few minutes away from Plaza Mayor, which means you'll be just around the corner from Marid's most famous sights.

Home truths
When the windows are open, the lively neighbourhood will make the home a bit noisy
The second bedroom is not well separated from the living room – there's only a curtain
Although the kitchen is well-equipped with appliances, it doesn't have the basic staples
This home can accommodate a maximum of six guests, but one person will be sleeping on a pull-out bed in the second bedroom

Local guide
About Opera y Palacio Real
The small neighbourhood of Opera y Palacio Real sits next to the Royal Palace and its grand squares with manicured gardens. It’s also home to El Teatro Royal, the grand opera house. This part of town has an abundance of space and is far less busy than other parts of central Madrid – the calmness of the area makes it popular with families. You’ll find high-end local shops to peruse, as well as excellent restaurants, in this refined and sedate neighbourhood.
