Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Place yourself at the heart of Madrid’s art, culture, and gastronomy scene with a stay at this immaculate apartment perched in the well-heeled Almagro neighbourhood. Celebrated for its grand 19th-century mansions, foreign embassies, and art galleries, this is the place to be. Keep things local at Plaza de Chamberí and hang with the madrileños in its buzzy cafes. And be sure to check out Estación de Chamberí – the long-lost ghost train now reimagined into a museum. It’s as intriguing as it sounds. When it’s time for some rest up at home, this light-filled apartment feels like a breath of fresh air after the buzz of the city. Rustic handmade pieces, soft-as-butter leather chairs, and bleached wooden tones read like a masterclass in bohemian style. While a super-sleek kitchen area and spa-like bathroom with obligatory rainfall shower dial up the luxury. Spill out into the living area to soak up those leafy scenes through the original wrought-iron Juliet balcony doors. Then get together to toast the day with drinks and nibbles in the dining nook – the record player and speaker system will bring the ambience. And you’re all set up if you plan to work during your stay – there are two dedicated desk spaces ready to go for a spot of co-working.

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.
