While this studio apartment situated in the heart of Madrid may be small in size, it more than makes up for it in charm and comfort. An ideal base for a couple or a solo traveller, this city gem has everything to make your stay a restful one, and when it comes to exploring the many wonders the Spanish capital has to offer, you couldn’t wish for a better location as your starting point.

Enter to be greeted by a warm and welcoming space, bathed in light flooding in through the large windows which lead onto a little balcony. Overlooking a charming street of the Barrio de las Letras, this is a lovely place to sit down and enjoy your morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. Back inside you’ll find a large sofa inviting you to kick off your shoes and relax after a day of dashing around the city – settle in for a snuggly night of movies. The bright and well-equipped kitchen will make rustling up a quick and delicious supper a breeze, and you’ll be able to savour it at the dining table. 

A great added bonus is the roof terrace where you can lounge about on the comfy seats and admire the city views sprawling out before you. For a night of restful sleep, you’ll love the soft and comfy bed – and while it shares the space with the rest of the living area, the smart and elegant design means that you won’t feel cramped here. 

Outside your front door, you’ll be just minutes away from the great museums, including the Reina Sofia and Museo del Prado, as well as the beautiful Retiro Park.

Nestled among the vivacious nightlife, medieval streets, and traditional tapas bars of Madrid’s lively Lavapiés neighbourhood, this apartment is in the mix of the city’s bursting cultural scene. Here, you’re steps away from the city’s most popular tourist attractions, but far enough from the throngs of crowds.

Stepping inside, you’ll find a bright, minimalist interior that’ll suit any preference. Natural light billows through the patio doors, inviting you to enjoy your morning coffee from the Juliet balcony, watching daily life resume in the streets below. And when you return home after a day of exploring Madrid, enjoy a few glasses of wine and a game of cards around the dining table before heading out to one of Lavapiés’ restaurants.

Whether you’re here for business or pleasure, the central location will certainly come in handy. If you are here for work, the city’s business area is within easy reach – simply hop on the metro to make your way there. But if you want to stay closer to home, you’ll find much to explore. Stroll around the Reina Sofía Museum, marvel at the San Fernando Church, or simply discover the steep streets and traditional corrola buildings.

Single-Level Home

Presenting an abundance of natural light, the serene ambience here invites guests to switch off, unwind and recharge – despite the apartment's central location in Madrid. We love the soothing colour scheme of vanilla and macadamia hues in the main living space. After a day of sightseeing, shopping and sampling the local tapas delights, there's nowhere better to kick back and relax. 

And with space to cook and serve up your own aperitifs and meals, you'll have the option of eating out or rustling up your own delicious treats when staying here. Following fun-filled days out exploring the city – where better to soak the day away than the bathtub? Bliss. Located in the Sol neighbourhood, you'll be positioned steps away from the sought-after monuments and attractions and an abundance of stylish boutiques and dining opportunities to discover. 



Vanilla & Macadamia 

Positioned just a fifteen-minute stroll from El Retiro Park, this home provides a stylish base in Madrid’s beating heart.

Perched on the third floor, it boasts delightful views from its street-facing balcony. After a restful slumber, spend mornings out here, tucking into coffee and in the sunshine before slipping out to explore. 

The interior is stylishly furnished and, with its free-flowing layout, provides the perfect space for couples. A timeless canvas of high ceilings and hardwood floors is brimming with contemporary comforts, including a fully equipped kitchen, while large windows usher in floods of sunlight. Between adventures in the city, you’ll love kicking back in your air-conditioned pad. Snuggle up on the plush sofa, gather around the dining table for a home-cooked meal or enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony at sunset.

Boasting a privileged position in Madrid’s culture-rich Las Letras neighbourhood, this top-floor apartment offers comfort and style in equal measure. 
 
Its slanted ceilings and contemporary decor make an immediately striking welcome in the open-plan living area, bathed in light thanks to the scenic skylights that give way to rooftop views. Make yourself comfortable in the seating nook with a glass of wine after a day of exploring the city, or gather together at the dining table for a meal when you’re not out sampling the lively local tapas scene. The beamed bedroom is a serene space you’ll love retreating to at the end of the night, as you fall asleep to the glow of the moon through the skylight. 
 
What’s more, you’ve got access to the building’s shared rooftop terrace – a beautiful sun trap that beckons alfresco breakfasts and celebratory sundowners as you watch the light fade over the city. 
 
When it comes to sightseeing, you’re in an ideal spot to make the most out of Madrid’s most celebrated museums with the famous Museo Nacional del Prado a five-minute walk and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía a seven-minute stroll. You’re also a thirteen-minute walk from leafy El Retiro Park, a fifteen-minute stroll from Plaza Mayor, while bustling Gran Vía is ten minutes away on foot.

Dressed in earthy tones and with a rustic charm seeping from its walls, this beautiful penthouse is a welcome retreat amidst the hustle and bustle of Madrid. With light ushered in through the large windows, highlighting the exposed beams and comfortable furnishings, you’ll feel at home from the moment you set your suitcases down. We love the window seat nestled by the door to the terrace – perfect for snuggling down with a good book to while away the hours during some downtime in your apartment. 

The rooftop terrace will entice you out with ease. It’s just the spot to start or end the day –  enjoy a morning coffee as the city stirs into life below and the sun warms your skin or gather with friends of an evening, sharing a bottle of wine and tales from the day. Up here, hidden amongst the rooftops, you could almost forget you were in the heart of Madrid. With the distant sounds of the city below, you’ll soon be itching to get out and explore. There’s a whole host of eateries on your doorstep, so stop to sample some local cuisine before discovering the elegant boulevards and manicured parks Spain’s capital is so rightfully proud of.

This unique loft apartment is perfect for a family, a small group of friends, or two couples looking for a stylish and comfortable base in Madrid. It’s in a vibrant part of the city, close to restaurants and shops, and within walking distance of many of the key attractions – Plaza Mayor and the Prado Museum are less than twenty minutes away on foot.

Molten Brass is neat and tidy. There isn’t a lot that jumps out at you, but that’s not necessarily a problem – the atmosphere inside is pretty calm. That stands in contrast to the atmosphere on the street below, which is pretty intense, but that’s because you’re in the heart of Malasaña, so there’s tonnes to do. As is common with any flat that is rented out all the time, there’s a lack of personality but the attention to detail, and generally pleasant, if simple, design help make the flat feel more homely.

Malasaña is famous for being slightly outrageous, which is probably why Queen of the Castle is in it. A tour of this home reveals a glamorous hybrid design theme that balances modern baroque-inspired pieces with jungle and safari themes – dear lovers of minimalism, you might want to stay elsewhere. But if gold-coated flora and fauna with an occasional crown-cum-skull ensemble sound like heaven to you, then you'll find Queen of the Castle an absolute delight. Not to mention that you'll be within walking distance to Puerta del Sol and the vibrant neighbourhood of Chueca. 

Queen of the Castle

Multiple Sets of Keys

Despite being located in the heart of Malasaña, Autumn Jungle is tucked away on a quiet street. Walking to Plaza Mayor or Palacio Real will be a breeze, but the nearby streets of Madrid's trendiest neighbourhood will have you stopping in art galleries and cosy bars along the way. This is a well-executed home with curated artwork, where special attention has been given to the details. It might not be the biggest home in our collection, but it has a pleasant, bohemian chic vibe that fits in perfectly in the spirit of Malasaña. 

Autumn Jungle

Library of Books

A comfortable and functional home in the heart of Madrid, this apartment is quiet, inviting and convenient. There’s a winter garden balcony for relaxing with a cup of coffee in the mornings, a sitting room with a collection of books – fitting, considering your home is in the Literary Quarter – and a bright and spacious living area, our favourite place to recline with a glass of wine in the evenings. 

After breakfast cooked up in the modern kitchen, get lost in the charming streets that surround your home. You’re a five-minute walk from the Museo Nacional del Prado, less than fifteen from the sprawling Retiro Park and twenty from the Royal Palace. When all of that exploring works up a hunger, check out your neighbourhood’s impressive culinary scene. Find a tapas bar for a tipple and a bite to eat or try out international cuisine in sleek dining rooms. 

Scholastic

Step into the heart of Madrid with a stay in this contemporary loft. From the simple aesthetic to the functional design, this is a great option for couples and solo travellers in search of a refreshing city stay. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room and the main bedroom is located on the mezzanine level (with no door), but you’ll find all the essentials needed to make it your own. Outside, it’s just a short stroll to local tapas bars, shops and iconic sights like the Royal Botanical Garden of Madrid. 


Madrid's Sky Loft

This luxurious apartment is located in the heart of Madrid’s Salamanca district, surrounded by boutiques, restaurants, and cafes. El Retiro Park is less than five minutes away on foot, there are galleries nearby, and a Metro station is just along the road. Housed in a stately building in a classic Madridian style, the apartment is stylish and sophisticated. High ceilings and large windows make it a relaxing space to return to after seeing the sights of the busy city. 


Madrid Living

In the heart of Madrid’s artsiest neighbourhood, Barrio de las Letras, this studio apartment is the perfect base for a cultural city break. First of all, you’ve got the world-famous Prado museum a five-minute walk away, then there’s the sprawling greenery of Retiro Park, just seven minutes on foot. If locally-grown fresh food and lazy lunches of tapas are your thing, head to Antón Martín Market, an eight-minute walk away.

Perhaps stock up and head back to your quiet bolthole, where a compact but fully-equipped kitchen awaits. Floor-to-ceiling French-style windows let the sunshine stream in, so dining at the table inside is a delight during the day. The decor is neutral and soothing in dove-grey and dusky pinks. The best bit? You can take your fresh olives from the market and a bottle of wine up to the shared rooftop terrace where an outdoor lounge with rooftop views awaits.

As you saunter past the ornate, rococo grandeur of the Palacio Real de Madrid, peering into kerbside cafés, wine bars, and bustling tapas restaurants en route, you’ll end up in Plaza Mayor, just seven minutes away.

The lively main square of Spain’s capital is exactly what you’d expect – historical 15th-century magnificence with a bronze statue of King Philip III in the middle. And of course, the exciting mix of drinking spots and shaded alfresco dining continues. You might be wondering why we’re so interested in this specific spot – well, this is your address.

This modern apartment trades in centuries of history for bright and shiny interiors (you’ve got plenty of history outside). Naturally, the living space features two huge glass doors leading you to a private balcony facing on to the celebrated square. A cushy white sofa and dining chairs around a glass table bring a futuristic feel, while pink orchids contrast with an organic edge.

But while you sip tempranillo and nibble olives with views over the king’s statue, your host has further plans make you feel regal. They can arrange for private city tours, dry cleaning, grocery deliveries, and even themed dinner nights – royal banquet anyone?

The King's View

This apartment is within walking distance of an array of attractions, such as Parque Madrid Rio, Casa de Campo, the Royal Palace and La Almudena Cathedral. Of course, there are plenty of dining options to discover in the area, too. The apartment has a desk if you need to catch up on emails and a well-equipped kitchen for making some tapas. We have to say, we love the main bedroom with its dressing room and en-suite. This home is a great choice whether you’re here for leisure or work.

Metropolitan Magic

In the heart of Madrid, just a few metres away from Plaza Mayor and within walking distance of Puerta del Sol, this city apartment couldn't be better located. Keep in mind that some noise should be expected here, but we think it's a small price to pay for this central spot. You'll find a great selection of restaurants on your doorstep if you'd like to sample the local cuisine, but if you'd prefer to dine in, the kitchen is well-equipped for homemade tapas.

Museum lovers will be in their element at this stylish abode in Madrid's Golden Triangle of Art.

If you're not sold by the unbeatable location, maybe the home's chic interior design and cosy ambience will entice you.

Every inch of this apartment exudes good taste, from the herringbone floors to the sleek subway-tiled kitchen. Though on the smaller side, you'll find everything need to prepare light Spanish-influenced meals – which you can enjoy at the nifty four-person dining table. After an evening on the town, get comfortable in front of the plasma TV, a throw on your lap and a glass of sangria in hand.

There's a reason Salamanca is one of Madrid's most sought-after neighbourhoods. With its gourmet eateries, world-renowned museums and luxury boutiques lining the Golden Mile, the area offers something for everyone. Just on the cusp of this swanky postcode is this apartment. The size is ideal for couples and solo travellers, but the option of a single sofa bed keeps sleeping arrangements flexible. Netflix and a Playstation have rainy days covered, and although it's not the most exciting home, we like the design – particularly the colourful wallpaper in the bedroom.

Madrid Marigold

This bright and comfortable apartment is just a stone’s throw from the Royal Palace of Madrid. The official residence of the Head of State is open to the public, so you can explore the spot where centuries of Spanish history took place. The apartment is also just in front of the Sabatini Gardens, and 100 metres from Príncipe Pio train station. Plaza de España is only a five-minute walk away, too. Two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room, so things might feel a little crowded – you’re unlikely to be spending much time at home though. 

Regal Abode

Whether you're visiting Madrid for work, to catch up with family, or simply want to enjoy everything the city has to offer, this apartment is an excellent place to drop your bags. Situated in the Salamanca district, this smart spot reflects its sophisticated location perfectly – we think you'll feel at home in no time at all.  

Step inside, and you'll notice the abundance of natural light flowing in through the large windows, and the tranquil ambiance throughout. The open-plan layout maximises space and makes it easy to chat with your guests while you cook, eat and relax. You'll love the plush velvet sofa and luxurious details, like the statement lighting and marble bathroom. There's even a breakfast bar for quick morning coffees and a wonderful balcony area where you can sip a sundowner in the fresh air. 

Those that love the finer things in life will be happy to know that the grand boulevards of Salamanca are packed with opportunities to treat yourself. Head to the boutiques of the Golden Mile to pick out some designer pieces, before taking the nine-minute walk to Platea Madrid, a former theatre turned food hall. And, if you want to travel further afield. just hop on the Metro at Velázquez – it's only four minutes away on foot.

Located in one of Madrid's most charming neighbourhoods, the Barrio de las Letras –  step outside and you'll discover terrific restaurants, trendy bars, and little boutiques. It is noisy, but you're in the heart of the action here. Wander over to El Retiro Park, perfect for getting away from the city with a picnic in the park, and a stroll around the art in the 19th Century Crystal Palace. Chueca, famous for its active nightlife and wonderful vintage tapas bars, is a great place to experience Spanish nightlife. Most importantly, before hitting the bars, seek out a quaint restaurant for delightful tapas. This is all achievable due to the transport links that you can easily tour the entire city with.

From the open-plan living area to the breakfast bar, ideal for cooking up some morning delights. Light colours prevail with a splash of colour, adding elegance to the design and unique furnishings. The bedrooms are spacious and cheerful, thanks to large windows that let in plenty of natural light. Its high-quality finishes complement the rest of the floor's decorative style, creating a sense of absolute harmony and beauty.


Guilty Pleasure

Situated in Madrazo, just a five-minute stroll from the bustling shop-lined avenue of Gran Vía and its majestic Metropolis Building, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. It's right at the heart of the action, though, tucked away on a side street and perched on the third floor, feels delightfully peaceful. Here, you're within walking distance of all the main sights, including El Retiro Park and the Plaza Mayor, both twelve minutes from your doorstep on foot.

From the outset, this home exudes grandeur with its pastel-hued facade and marble tiled entryway. The interior is just as elegant, boasting a calming canvas of high ceilings, wooden floors and stylish decor. Large windows usher in floods of sunlight, and we love the open-plan living space, where floor-to-ceiling French doors open up to not one but four balconies. After a restful slumber, spend mornings roosted here, sipping your coffee in the sunshine with picturesque street-facing views. 

Spend your days strolling through Madrid's palm-lined streets, passing neoclassical architecture, emblematic museums and bustling plazas bearing ample cafes and tapas bars. When you need a breather from the city heat, return to this sanctuary of serenity. Enjoy an energising workout in the shared gym, or kick back on the plush sofas with a glass of wine as the sun sets over the rooftops.

Private Entrance

Located in the bustling heart of Madrid – just a one-minute walk from the city’s famous Gran Vía shopping street – this bright, comfortable home is the ideal base for those looking to get the most out of the city’s sights.

With its beach-vibe decor – think wood floors, palm feature walls, houseplants and wicker and wood accents – you’ll feel at ease from the moment you walk through the door. We love how much natural light pours in from the glass doors that lead out onto a Juliet balcony and the chic dining table that invites homemade tapas feasts and elegant soirées catered by a private chef (your host can organise this). The bedroom, meanwhile, is just as serene with its tropical statement wall and king-size bed, while the marble-clad bathroom beckons long bubble baths after a day of seeing the sights.

Speaking of exploring, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including Puerta del Sol (eight minutes), Plaza Mayor (ten minutes), the Royal Palace of Madrid (fifteen minutes) and the Museo Nacional del Prado (twenty minutes). With your host able to arrange tickets to events and museums, as well as organise trips to nearby towns, cities and wineries, you’re all set to experience Madrid in style. 


Viva la Gran Vía

Get immersed in all that the vibrant Spanish capital has to offer with a stay at this stylish apartment situated in the very heart of the city. This is an ideal place for a family or a small group of friends to base themselves and enjoy all the comforts of a luxurious pad while also having all of Madrid’s iconic sights within easy reach. 

Arrive to be welcomed by a luminous and elegant living room, with huge floor-to-ceiling windows leading straight onto the balcony. This space is filled with gorgeous pieces and unique touches we love, not least the striking wood beams separating the room in the middle. On the other side, you’ll find a dining table where you’ll be able to enjoy communal feasts. Putting together delicious meals will be a breeze thanks to the well-equipped kitchen. After supper, kick off your shoes and relax on the plush sofas in the company of your loved ones. 

For a night of rest and blissful sleep head over to the luxurious bedrooms – before you retreat to the land of sweet dreams, enjoy an indulgent bath in one of the spa-like bathrooms. We love the lovely art which creates a pattern running through the whole apartment, and the bathrooms are no exception. 

When the morning finds you refreshed and ready for a day of city exploring, you’ll be happy to know that you’re in the best possible place from which to reach all the landmarks of this magical city. Lose yourself in the rich art collection at the Prado Museum situated a ten-minute walk away and make the most out of the fantastic range of restaurants and bars in your area. 

The Dance & The Wonder

Access to Beach

We challenge you to find a prettier apartment overlooking the Royal Palace of Madrid. This place is a real showstopper, with twin Juliet balconies opening over Plaza de Oriente Gardens. Bold, bright and just downright beautiful, it's dripping in character thanks to ornate cornice, traditional shuttered windows and classical furnishing. A riot of elegant colours and patterns, it couldn't be further from modern minimalism if it tried.

Once you've arrived and stared out of the window for long enough to take it all in, choose between the two pretty bedrooms – one decorated in calming greens, the other in vibrant terracotta. There's a grand, open-plan living space to keep everything sociable, and a kitchen with everything you'll need for cooking at home. But we suspect you'll be eating out much of the time – it would be rude not to when surrounded by some of the best cafes and restaurants in the city. And with most of the major attractions on your doorstep too, you'll have plenty to see and do.



The Palace Window 

Paid Parking

This modern apartment has an address within walking distance of the Madrid Río. Here, you’ll find a large urban park built along the Manzanares River offering nature, sports, culture and a beach. There are also plenty of tapas bars, cafes, restaurants and shops to explore in and around this residential neighbourhood. Or there’s a well-equipped kitchen here if you prefer to eat at home. If you’re here during the summer months, you’ll be glad to know there’s air conditioning, too.

The Flowering Heart

The most remarkable thing about Espinas is the quiet. Despite having three balconies, and being in the middle of Lavapiés, the street it looks onto is actually fairly calm. The building is old, and a lot of the original structure features prominently in the flat, which has been designed to complement the space, rather than dominate it. There is some pretty loud wallpaper though, which stops the design from falling into the dreaded ‘neutral’ category.


Espinas

What a fabulous location this refurbished apartment has – Puerta del Sol, one of the best-known squares in the city, is just a two-minute stroll away. Or, a five-minute walk will take you to one of Madrid's most famous streets, Gran Vía. Watch a production at the Teatro EDP Gran Vía or have lunch at one of its many eateries. Alternatively, the iconic Plaza del Dos de Mayo is a fifteen-minute wander. Here, you'll find plenty of bars, as well as a lively weekend market for fresh produce.  

Take some goodies back to this elegant apartment and whip up a bocadillo de calamares (calamari sandwich) in the sleek, white kitchen and enjoy it at the dining table with its plush green velvet chairs. We love the French doors to the balcony – they allow so much light in, and the views are fantastic. Plants give this place a homely feel, while modern prints enliven the white walls – this home is ideal for two couples or a family wanting plenty of attractions within easy walking distance.



Terciopelo Verde

Twenty minutes on foot from Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol, and El Retiro Park, this apartment is well-placed to explore. Many shops, restaurants, and metro stations are nearby, as well as some of Madrid's most famous markets. When you're not sightseeing, this central home is practical and comfortable. We love the exposed brick and stone walls, though it does mean it's a little dark. The kitchen is the ideal size to rustle up lighter fare, but we suspect you'd prefer dining out. 

Ladrillo

Access to Gym / Spa

Sauna

Standing proudly in the Salamanca district, this stylish apartment is only a stone’s throw away from the luxury retailers lining the Golden Mile. When it comes to wining and dining, there's truly no better place to stay in the city. Tootle along these 19th-century boulevards and join the locals at the gourmet food market of Platea Madrid. Or, why don't you spend a cultural day perusing the National Archaeological Museum?

Built in 1907, this Art Nouveau gem transcends time with its characterful features. Wake up beneath high ceilings and plan your daily itinerary over a Spanish breakfast of churros. After some sightseeing, perhaps you'd like to slow down in the communal sauna or keep fit in the on-site gym. Our favourite thing about this home has got to be its bay-windowed sunroom, a divine spot to sip your afternoon coffee and flick through a local newspaper. Just imagine watching a sunset over the cityscape with your dog on your lap.

Modern Nouveau

The elegant combination of Nordic interior design styles with fashionable industrial fittings make this newly renovated apartment a great choice. It's genuinely cosy and comfortable and the original artwork on the walls gives it a distinctly homey vibe. Two sweet balconies look out onto the typically graffitied streets of trendy Malasaña neighbourhood, and a tonne of quirky cafes, bakeries, restaurants and vintage shops are all close by. Ideal for a younger crowd, it's a ten-minute walk to central Gran Via, and fifteen to the busy Puerta del Sol. 

Camila

Trash Compactor

If you want to be right at the centre of the action in Madrid, then this is the apartment for you. Situated right on Calle Mayor – one of the city's best-known streets – it's within easy reach of all the delights the capital city has to offer. 

The home itself is an elegant space filled with charm, and the high ceilings and tall windows mean there is plenty of natural light. The host has a great eye for stylish furniture – from the marble kitchen counter to the lavish patterned rugs, you'll love the luxurious feel. Practise your Spanish-style cooking in the kitchen before serving your culinary creations to your guests at the gorgeous dining table. Then, after dinner, open up a bottle of Rioja and head out to the private balcony to watch the world go by from above. 

There are also plenty of restaurants nearby, serving everything from traditional tapas to ramen and tacos. Madrid's historic square, Plaza Mayor, is just a two-minute walk away from your front door, as is the famous Puerta del Sol. You'll also find several museums and theatres in the surrounding area, and if you fancy exploring another part of the city then simply hop on the metro at Sol station – it's just a couple of minutes away. 

Morning in Madrid

This elegant apartment situated between the Salamanca and Goya areas is a lovely base for a family or a group of friends visiting Madrid, offering all the comforts of home as well as a central location. 

Come inside and find a lovely open-plan living room, with a dining table and a well-equipped kitchen. There’s plenty of space for the whole party to snuggle up and enjoy an evening of movies and Spanish wine. Should you wish to rustle up a delicious supper, the kitchen has all you need to show off your culinary skills – but you may also opt to try one of the many excellent restaurants in the area. 

For a night of restful sleep head over to the cosy bedrooms, each offering a plush bed and sleek, minimalist décor. Wake up feeling restored and start your day with a cup of coffee out on the balcony. 

Outside your home, you’ll find yourself surrounded by upscale boutiques and gourmet eateries, with the historic centre and all its monuments (including the Prado Museum and El Retiro Park) within easy reach. 

I Woke Up Dreaming 

Private Parking

This fantastic duplex apartment has an entrance next to Retiro Park, in a relatively quiet area of the bustling city. El Retiro translates as “Park of the Pleasant Retreat”, and this home offers exactly that. 

We would love to spend some time every day here strolling around the beautiful Retiro Park which used to belong to the Spanish Monarchy until it was opened up to the public to enjoy in the late nineteenth century. Wander through the green space, admiring the fountains and statues of Spaniards before taking a break in one of the open-air cafes. 

Hop on public transport to explore even more sights and attractions of Madrid, including the Plaza Mayor – reachable in twenty-nine minutes. Then, after a busy day, dine at one of the restaurants in the neighbourhood which are within a four-minute walk. Or, enjoy a tapas meal together at home before retiring to the sofa in the cosy living room nook with a glass of sangria.

Una Caminata en el Parque

Record Player

Amidst the vibrant streets of Chueca, this apartment makes it easy to enjoy the magic of Madrid. There’s a private terrace for your morning coffee or evening aperitivos. Inside, the rooms have been thoughtfully designed with plenty of personal touches and home comforts. There’s a dedicated desk for remote works and a Bluetooth record player for music lovers. Plus, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to activities in this location. Stroll to local bars, cafes, restaurants and iconic sights like El Retiro Park. 


Classic Muse

Settle into the Spanish lifestyle with a stay at this fantastic apartment in the vibrant Malasaña district. With plenty of room for a family or group of friends, you can kick back and relax between adventures, making the most of this beautifully designed space. 

The living area is a haven of calm away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It's cloaked in soft pastel tones, and has plenty of comfortable seating where you can curl up with a glass of Rioja at the end of a long day. The kitchen is perfect for cooking up your favourite dishes, which you can serve at the chic dining space, complete with stylish pendant lighting and parquet flooring. And, there's even a breakfast bar where you can enjoy a quick bite to eat and a fresh coffee from the Newspresso machine before you get going in the morning. 

The surrounding barrio is full of indie coffee shops and market stalls lining the winding streets. It's a great place to while away a day as you browse the vintage boutiques, before enjoying a craft cocktail at one of the local bars. And, Madrid's grandest sights are within easy reach too – the Palacio Real de Madrid is just fifteen minutes away on foot, and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum is just over twenty minutes away.

You couldn’t get closer to Madrid’s leafy El Retiro Park – it’s situated on an idyllic street that leads right off the park itself. Look out your window for luscious tree views or walk a few steps and you’ll be surrounded by roses in The Rosaleda. 
 
As you walk into the open-plan space, you’ll immediately be struck by the dazzling amount of natural light pouring in through the wall of windows. Curated with a modern eye for design, the living area sets a striking impression with its glossy red kitchen and statement, ash blue wall. Make yourself comfortable on the plump sofa or armchair with a cold cerveza after a day of sightseeing, before sinking into the serene-hued bedroom for a restful night’s sleep, leaving you feeling refreshed and ready for another day of city exploring. 

Speaking of sightseeing, while away an afternoon exploring the National Archaeological Museum, a fourteen-minute stroll from your door. For a culinary endeavour, seek out a tapas dinner – your neighbouring streets are lined with authentic restaurants.
