Immerse yourself in all the exciting things Madrid has to offer with a stay at this elegant apartment nestled right in the heart of the city. Boasting both style and cosiness, this home is a true gem and an ideal base for a couple or a small group of friends wanting to make the most out of their city break. The gorgeous Modernist building itself emanates history, and it stands out from the rest thanks to the presence of a bronze sculpture by Miguel Ángel Ruiz Beato, 'Crash', which was placed on the roof in 2005. Arrive to be greeted by a lovely living area, bathed in plenty of natural light flooding in through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Catch glimpses of the traditional Madrid architecture outside as you lounge on the plush sofa enjoying a snuggly evening of movies and wine. We love the carefully selected pieces dotted about, all working together to create a warm ambience and that homey feel. The kitchen is modern and well-equipped, and it’ll make rustling up delicious meals a breeze – share them with your loved ones at the dining table, complete with four eye-catching red chairs. For a night of sweet repose head over to the luxurious bedroom, with a soft double bed carrying the promise of restful sleep. Wake up restored and ready for a day of discovering the many faces of Madrid. When it comes to exploring the city, you couldn’t wish for a better location. Surrounded by iconic landmarks, you’ll be steps away from Plaza Mayor and a ten-minute walk from the Royal Palace.

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.
