This apartment might be petite, but it's packed with style and offers a brilliant location in the heart of Madrid. Ideal for couples or solo travellers, it's a great place to eat, sleep and chill out in comfortable yet chic surroundings. Open the front door, and you'll feel instantly at ease, thanks to the sophisticated neutral colour palette. The squashy sofa invites you to relax, while the large windows flood the living area with natural light. Budding chefs will love practising their favourite dishes in the kitchen, and serving up their creations at the elegant dining table – don't forget to pour a couple of glasses of Spanish red wine too. If you'd rather someone else took on catering duties, then there are plenty of restaurants on and around the Plaza de Alonso Martínez, just a four-minute walk away. The iconic shopping street, Calle de Fuencarral, is less than ten minutes away on foot, and you'll also find several museums and galleries nearby. Plus, if you want to venture further afield, then simply hop on the metro – the closest station is just three minutes away.

About Chamberí
Chamberi is a residential area in the Northern part of central Madrid. It used to be populated by aristocrats, which gives it its unique look and feel. It’s a cultural hub that defies conventional tourist expectations, with lots of quirky attractions – start at the Sorolla Museum and make your way to the old Chamberí metro station that’s been turned into a transport museum.
