Known for its vibrant atmosphere, Trafalgar is the place to be if tapas restaurants, sidewalk cafes, and independent shops are at the top of your to-do list. You'll have to hop on the metro to reach Madrid's most famous landmarks, but seeing as there are two stops a short stroll away, that shouldn't be a problem. Besides its chic bohemian style, the apartment offers amenities like underfloor heating, a walk-in closet, and even a workspace if you're travelling for business. A lovely touch is the Juliet balconies, so quintessentially Spanish and perfect on summer evenings.
