We love this place, not only because it is nestled in the heart of one of our favourite cities, but also because this apartment is a true gem. Filled with gentle warmth and decorated in style, this is the perfect base for a couple’s getaway, or an ideal abode for a single traveller. To stay here is to get immersed in a desert-inspired oasis, decorated with carefully chosen furnishings, with numerous touches of colour and lush plants dotted around. You’ll find yourself inspired to enjoy a glass of wine or a quiet supper in the charming dining area, or a cocktail or two on the balcony. We are also very much in favour of the bedroom arrangements – from the comfort of the luxurious bed itself, to the unique décor and warm lighting, you will find it all you need for a perfectly restful night. If there is any work you need to catch up on, you’ll find just the spot at the especially dedicated office space, which also maintains the overall cosy vibe. Add to it the fact that you are located in the heart of one of the city’s most exciting areas, and we think you just found... yourself the spot to have the perfect Madrid experience.
