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.

Ten minutes from the alfresco drinking spots of Plaza Mayor, and just over fifteen from the lush greenery of the Parque de El Retiro, this apartment is a wonderful base in Madrid. Despite being so close to main attractions and located among the most vibrant streets, it’s a space where you can relax. This apartment is classy, colourful, and comfortable. The host has taken it upon themself to create a peaceful oasis in the middle of the city, curating an eclectic look with antiques and flea-market finds. We love the living and dining room, complete with mid-century chairs and a chandelier to create an elegant glow for dinner parties. Another fabulous use of light comes from the shuttered windows to your private balcony. With three sets of rich, wooden folding doors, you can step out to the railings with a glass of tempranillo after supper to watch the city light up at nightfall. With decorative, gilded bed frames in the sumptuous bedrooms, you’ll even feel stylish while you sleep. Rest up well, because you’ve got some exploring to do the next morning – the three galleries of the Art Walk are all less than fifteen minutes away.

This is a big and cleverly laid-out home that impressed us with how quiet it was – in spite of the fact that it's in the strictest centre of Madrid. Both Puerta del Sol and the Prado are within walking distance, setting you up for great sightseeing walks. Corinthian gives the impression of old-timey grandeur. It's not a scratch-free home, but one that feels lived in and furnished with a personality. The high ceiling and use of wood in almost every room give it a warm and welcoming vibe.

Patio / Terrace

Set within the historic buildings that line the avenues of central Madrid, this penthouse shines with royal sophistication. The 19th-century character has been immaculately maintained, and details like the traditional Spanish shutters, crystal chandeliers and refined furnishings speak to the elegance of yesteryear. But there’s also a streak of urban cool running throughout – the living and dining areas feature bold artwork and the kitchen is a shiny minimalist haven. As you walk through the apartment, the glossy theme continues in the bedrooms where a stark black and white motif feels classy. There are nine huge balconies wrapped around this stunning apartment offering spectacular views across the city – secluded corner nooks with bistro seating for two, and a huge terrace fringed with balustrades and scattered with lux outdoor seating. When you feel inspired to explore, the apartment is centrally located and within walking distance of Madrid’s most iconic sights. As the sun sets, enjoy drinks on the biggest balcony and soak in the rich and passionate heritage of this incredible city.

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

Juicer

Child Friendly

A stylish blend of rustic and modern, this characterful apartment just a three-minute stroll from Puerta del Sol puts you in a prime position to explore Madrid’s cultural and historic centre. 
 
Inside, exposed beam ceilings, wood floors and colourful decor set a welcoming scene in the open-plan living area. We love the funky art prints decking the walls and the large windows giving way to leafy views. The dining table is perfectly set up here to catch the rays pouring through the glass, over a hearty breakfast before a day of sightseeing, or over a bottle of Spanish red for a celebratory evening meal.
 
The pared-back bedroom is a comfortable space you’ll have no trouble falling asleep in, and in the morning, the bathroom’s rainfall shower is sure to get your day off on the right. 
 
When you’re ready to venture out for a day of fun, you’ll find plenty to see and do within easy walking distance. Make your way to nearby Puerta del Sol, or head to Plaza Mayor – one of the city’s most famous squares lined with restaurants. You’re also a nine-minute walk from bustling Gran Vía, a fifteen-minute stroll from the Royal Palace of Madrid, while pretty El Retiro Park is twenty minutes away on foot.

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.

Fire Extinguisher

You’ll hit the bullseye in this cool modern apartment, bang in the centre of Madrid's hip and happening Embajadores area. A bright space with tastefully exposed brickwork and an American-style kitchen, you’ll find plenty here to make yourself feel at home. Sip a coffee on the iron balcony railings looking out at the street below, or start the day slowly by kicking back on the white leather sofa with a book in hand. The sizeable bedroom is well-lit, the bathroom fully provisioned and pleasantly decorated with marble-look tiles, and there’s even a designated workspace for those travelling on business. But it’s the apartment’s location in the central hub of Madrid that will truly excite you, as you’re within walking distance from everything fun and artistic, including the Prado Museum, the Rastro flea market and the Plaza Mayor, as well as endless bars, eateries, theatres and shops too. Situated just metres away from the metro, you'll have easy access to explore the whole city with ease and efficiancy. Lively and diverse, dramatic street art decorates the Embajadores neighbourhood, while colourful flower stalls perfume the air and please the senses one step further. With all of this at your command in the coolest area of Madrid – why stay anywhere else? 

Culture Cool

Simplicity is at the fore when it comes to Windcomb. The sense of space is not something to be taken for granted, either. Eight people, and not a sofa bed in sight. Unfortunately, it’s rather common for unscrupulous landlords to try to shoehorn people in, but that’s certainly not the case here. It’s a bit of a pain to have to climb up the steps, but that’s an occupational risk when you test so many homes in old buildings – it’s hardly a dealbreaker.


Windcomb

Modern, bright and centrally located close to Madrid’s top sights, this home right by Puerta del Sol is a sunny delight. 

With its blue and white colour scheme, exposed brick details and open-plan layout, it embodies city living in chic, cool style. Open up the bedroom’s French doors to look out over the city from the Juliet balcony first thing in the morning before ambling into the living room where another pair of Juliet balconies await. Kick back on the sofa with your coffee, letting the breeze sweep in through the open doors, then set out for a day of sightseeing – Plaza Mayor is just a seven-minute walk away, Gran Vía is a ten-minute stroll, while both the Royal Palace of Madrid and the world-famous Museo Nacional del Prado are fifteen minutes away on foot. 

After a day of exploring, come back home for a celebratory meal around the glass dining table or head out to discover the neighbourhood’s best tapas bars and restaurants. When it’s time to turn in, your comfortable bed is ready to send you into a peaceful night’s sleep, leaving you rested and ready for another day of Madrid adventure. 

Blue Heartbeats

You can enjoy the best of Madrid from this chic, central apartment. It’s in the heart of the city, close to all the key attractions, including Plaza Mayor. There are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, so you’ll never be far from your next great meal, and the apartment has a well-equipped kitchen and dining table for those wanting to dine in. You’ll also have an attractive living room to enjoy, and a balcony where you can watch the world go by. This apartment is perfect for a family or group of friends. 

City Sun

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

It can be difficult to find accommodation suited to larger groups in the heart of the city, but this smart apartment will tick all the boxes. With plenty of space and flexible sleeping options, this central home is the perfect place to spend some quality time with your guests between your sightseeing excursions. 

You'll love the spacious living area, with double-height ceilings and huge windows that flood the space with natural light. The bike sculptures and selection of houseplants add some quirkiness, while the open-plan layout is perfect for socialising. Uncork a bottle of delicious Spanish wine, and put together some tasty tapas dishes to share at the stylish dining bench. And, when it's time for bed, you can head upstairs to one of the cosy bedrooms, furnished with a blend of vintage and contemporary pieces. 

The famous Puerta del Sol is just an eight-minute walk away from your front door, where you can see famous sights like the Puerta del Sol Clock and the El Oso y El Madroño sculpture. History fans will be happy to know that the Royal Palace is a fifteen-minute walk away, and the Museo Nacional del Prado is the same distance in the opposite direction. And, if you're craving some serenity after all that sightseeing then head to El Retiro Park and wander through the rose gardens before enjoying a picnic by the lake.

Bathrobes

This home is far from a pristine condition, but we're sure you can spot the wear and tear from the photos. The exposed wooden beams and the older-looking elements help create a special kind of charm that's hard to find in Madrid these days. The Open Library might also have one of the finest kitchens we've seen, equipped with enough dishes space to cook for a small army. The fact that it's also located within walking distance from the Prado and Puerta del sol makes this home a great, relaxed stay. 

The Open Library

Nice to haves

This fabulous three-bedroom apartment is stylishly decorated throughout and brimming with character. The open-plan living room has lovely high ceilings, beautiful period windows, and a bright and airy feel. The bedrooms might not be the largest bedrooms we've ever seen, but they all have a lovely, calming feel and do the job just fine. We also love all the original paintings  throughout the home - this host has style!

Yellow Brushwork

Set within the heart of Madrid, this apartment is an ideal base for those looking to drop off their suitcases and head out to explore. It's a studio, so space is limited. We think it's best for couples or solo travellers, though a sofa bed could sleep an additional guest if needed. Locally, indulge in some tasty tapas, soak up some culture at the Prado Museum, or head to Plaza Mayor or Puerta del Sol for a true taste of Madrid. 

Sunflower's Embrace

Paid Parking On Premises

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

Modern, compact and centrally located, this apartment is the perfect landing pad for those always on the go. Inside, it’s stripped-back and minimalistic with funky patterned walls, tiles and textiles adding interest to the spaces. Wake up feeling refreshed in the neat bedrooms before starting the day with a quick breakfast put together in your fully-equipped kitchen. Once you’ve finished your coffee, head out and explore your surroundings. 

Begin with a trip to the Prado Museum then enjoy a picnic in sunny Retiro Park, a short walk from your doorstep. Mosey over to the Royal Palace or shop ‘til you drop along the Gra Vía. Come evening, seek out a long-standing tablao for a rousing flamenco performance followed by tasty tapas in a laid-back restaurant.

Plaça de Catalunya is just a short stroll away from this apartment, so there's no doubt you'll be in the centre of the action here. The Eixample location is perfect for exploring, and the array of art galleries, lively bars, and fantastic eateries offer options for when you need a break from sightseeing. Back home, the design infuses contemporary style with Catalan charm. Remote workers will appreciate the office space, and you'll have access to a small internally-facing terrace. It doesn't boast any views, but it's still a nice spot to unwind with a glass of sangria and some tapas.

Miró's Nest

Just a ten-minute walk from Plaza Mayor, this stylish flat isn't messing about when it comes to location. Interesting museums, high-end shopping and many of Madrid's must-see landmarks are a quick stroll away – including Puerta del Sol, Parque de El Retiro and Palacio Real de Madrid, just to name a few. If you love trying new cuisine, you're in luck – this neighbourhood has an array of delectable restaurants and lively bars to while away the evenings in.

Or, if you're partial to homecooked meals, make your way back to this stylish flat and rustle up something tasty in the kitchen. It has everything you'll need – a large island, built-in appliances and plenty of counter space. The rest of the flat is impeccable, too – two glossy bathrooms (one decked out with bold palm leaf wallpaper, another en-suite) feature rainfall showers, the comfortable bedrooms are cosy and pared-back and the bright living area boats a squishy sofa and a lovely Juliet balcony that floods the room with light. We think you'll love calling this apartment home, whether you're in town for a few days or a few weeks.

Centro In Dusk

Although the apartment isn't especially large, the owners have made excellent use of the space. The spotlessly clean and dynamic living room is dotted with stylish – but not overbearing – design pieces, and the mirror in the kitchen makes it feel dramatically more spacious. And, with an exceptionally fast wifi speed, a brand new air-conditioning unit, and five individual balconies (yes, really!) facing onto sunny Cadiz street, it's easy to see why guests keep coming back. 


Sputnik Dandelion

Homes in Madrid often strike a careful balance between playful colours and minimalist features, and Pumpkin Flower is a great example of Madrileño chic. The natural light is great and the neighbourhood you'll be staying in, Lavapiès, is one of the hottest places to stay if you're into world cuisine and urban art. While the insides of this home are immaculate, the building itself could do with a fresh lick of paint, especially the hallway. If this isn't too much of a turn-off for you, Pumpkin Flower is a true find.

Located right in the centre of Madrid within walking distance of its cultural treasures, this apartment is its own gallery of miscellaneous wonders perched high above the pavements. Starting from the fuzzy caterpillar-like chaise lounge in the living room that sets the eclectic glamorous tone, this home puts just about everything in the mix, from boldly patterned wallpaper and towering palm plants to the Asian dresser in the living area and the bright blue countertop. It's fair to say that we loved it. A small balcony in one of the bedrooms was the cherry on the cake and is perfect for when you want a blast of fresh air on a stuffy afternoon. If you want to head out exploring, Museo Nacional del Prado is just over ten minutes' walk away, while Palacio de Cristal in the middle of Parque de el Retiro takes around twenty-five.

Parking On Street

If a central location is high on your list of priorities, then it's time to stop scrolling. From here, you'll find a great selection of shops, bars and restaurants along the famous Gran Vía. You're also just a few minutes away on foot from the city's popular landmarks such as the Prado Museum. At home, there's a laptop-friendly desk in the single bedroom, while the sleek kitchen and breakfast bar are perfect for sociable dining as a group. Keep in mind that some street noise should be expected here, but we think it's a small price to pay for this enviable spot in the heart of Madrid.  

Alcalá Oasis

This apartment is located on iconic Sevilla Street, right in the heart of Madrid. You’ve got all the city’s must-sees, including Museo del Prado, Palacio Real, and Plaza Mayor, on your doorstep. And if you want to venture further afield, Sevilla metro station is at the end of the road. Most of the windows in the home are skylights so you won’t get much of a view from here, but the open-plan living space has everything you’ll need, including a handy breakfast bar and comfortable lounge area. The second bedroom is very cosy – we think it’s best suited to a child or someone travelling light.

Madrid's Urban Elegance

This apartment in stately Eixample is a great base for Barcelona exploring. All your needs are covered here, with a kitchen perfect for light meals and even an office space if you have work to do. There's plenty of light throughout thanks to the French doors, and the Juliette balconies are a nice touch too. Throw in two bathrooms – ideal for getting everyone out the door quickly – and you're well-poised to explore the city. Urgell Station is a few minutes away, and there's a bus stop practically on your doorstep.

The New Playhouse

This chic apartment is a splendid base for three in Barcelona. It’s in the heart of popular Esquerra de Eixample, one of the city’s most vibrant and popular districts. You’ll have your pick of bars and restaurants to choose from, and you’ll be within walking distance of many of Barcelona’s top attractions. When you need to unwind, this apartment is the perfect place for it – it’s a tranquil abode. The main bedroom opens onto a small French balcony, where you can sip your morning coffee and plan your day. If you’re in town for business, you’ll be able to work from the convenient office. 

The Pink Checker

Right in the heart of Madrid, this contemporary apartment is in a top-notch location for exploring. Step out the front door and you'll be straight into the city's hustle and bustle – buzzing Gran Vía is two minutes on foot, with Puerta del Sol and Plaza Mayor walkable in under ten. Whether you fancy sightseeing, shopping or sampling the local cuisine, this is the place to be, with restaurants, boutiques and all the landmarks within easy. 

When you're not taking advantage of this super-central locale, relax back at home with a glass of Spanish vino. Hues of bold yellow, crisp white and sleek black give this chic pad a pop of personality – a perfect reflection of the dazzling modern art piece hanging proudly on the living room wall. Elsewhere, clever Japanese-style doors make the most of the natural light, so although the rooms are a bit small, they're all quite stylish. We're not going to lie – the kitchen, in particular, is pretty compact, but with Madrid's many eateries on your doorstep, we doubt you'll do much cooking.

Black Hole Sun

Luxury Bedding

This small space realises its full potential through comforting vibrant colours and layout design. Its neutral floor is jazzed up with colourful chairs and vibrant judiciously positioned artwork, while black lights and patterns help maintain a coherent style. Located just minutes away from Madrid's most famous museums, it's a great home for those intending to immerse themselves into all the art this city has to offer.

Make your stay in Madrid truly unique with this beautifully restored 19th-century apartment. Located just a four-minute walk from Puerta del Sol, you couldn’t be better placed to explore the city – you’ll be feeling the pulse of the Spanish capital in no time. Inside, tall beamed ceilings, wood floors and exposed brick walls nod to the home’s history with antique-inspired furnishings creating an almost villa-type atmosphere that’s as dreamy as it is bohemian. We love the French doors that open out onto romantic Juliet balconies with views of Plaza de Jacinto Benavente below. With the bed facing the picture windows, you can wake up and enjoy your morning coffee first thing while people-watching from your fourth-floor vantage point. With a beautiful stained-glass adorned bathroom and a working fireplace to cosy up next to on cooler nights – a glass of Spanish wine in hand – you’ve got everything you need for a relaxing, stylish stay. Outside of your home, Madrid’s famous shopping street, Gran Vía, is a ten-minute walk away, Plaza Mayor is five minutes on foot, the Prado Museum is walkable in fifteen and beautiful El Retiro Park is a twenty-minute stroll from your door.

Workplace

Ideal for two couples or a family, this apartment places you in the heart of the action. Whether you’re in the city for business or pleasure, this home makes a perfect base – and for those travelling for work, the dedicated office area is a welcome bonus. With such an enviable location, of course, you have the inevitable street noise and the views of neighbouring apartments aren’t awe-inspiring, but we think it’s a small price to pay to be able to hop around Barcelona with ease. 

Modern Haven

With Calle Gran Vía close by, this home will definitely appeal to shopaholics. You'll also find plenty of amazing restaurants and bars in the vicinity. Attractions within walking distance include Plaza Canovas del Castillo with its Fountain of Neptune and vibrant La Plaza de Chueca. Back at this apartment, we love the French doors that open out onto Juliet balconies. There's a separate, compact but well-equipped kitchen for creating some tasty tapas, too. This home is ideal for couples or business travellers seeking an elegant base in a fantastic location.

Heart of Madrid Haven

This smart apartment is the perfect place to embrace city living. Located in the very centre of Madrid, it's a great spot to kick back and relax between your adventures. 

Step inside, and you'll find a simple yet chic space that has everything you need for a successful stay. Admire the pretty patterned wallpaper, before heading to the petite kitchen to whip up some Spanish snacks. We think you'll love sitting around the dining table nibbling on some tapas as you sip a glass of Albariño and plan your itinerary. Then, when it's time for sleep, you can watch some TV in bed before drifting off, ready for the following day. 

Culture fans will be in their element – the Museo Nacional del Prado is a ten-minute walk away, and the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía is even closer. When you've had your fill of art and history, head to the nearby El Retiro Park to relax and reflect in the gorgeous gardens. And, when you need to refuel, there's no shortage of independent eateries right on your doorstep – the only difficulty you'll have is picking where to go first.

In a central spot with bigger than average square footage, this city pad has a lot going for it. Situated in the heart of Centro, Madrid’s historic core, you’ve got easy access to must-see landmarks, shops, restaurants, and bars. As well as a lounge, the home boasts a separate dining room – perfect for a leisurely breakfast before seeing the sights – and a mezzanine office for anyone travelling for work. While the neutral colour palette here won’t be to everyone’s tastes, we think this home is a great option for those with location at the top of their wish list.

Pearl of Madrid

Occupying a privileged spot in the heart of Eixample, this apartment opens its doors to the beauty of Barcelona. From here, you can stroll to the iconic Paseo de Gracia and the Rambla Catalunya. It’s worth noting there is no private parking, but you will find great public transport links – making it easy to explore the beaches along the coast. By night, you’ll love the feeling of returning home to this welcoming sanctuary. Relax in the living room while listening to the sound of your favourite playlist. There is also a sunroom with a dedicated desk for remote workers, and the main bedroom has an ensuite bathroom – adding a wonderful sense of privacy. 

The Spanish Lovesong

Located in Atocha, this home will put you within walking distance of Madrid's famous sights–and we mean all of them. From Plaza Mayor to the Prado, you'll be surrounded by the best of Madrid whatever direction you head off to. Retro Baroque is an eclectic home that doesn't hide its eccentricities. Classical styles mix with transparent polymers in a bold attempt to create a contemporary look. It's not for everyone, but with luxurious touches and natural light, it's best suited for urban explorers seeking comfort after a long day. 

Retro Baroque

If your idea of the dream city break is trying to visit as many of the destination's museums and galleries as possible, you will cherish this apartment in the middle of Madrid. From your front door, it's possible to walk to a staggering number of cultural institutions in under twenty minutes, including the 'Golden Triangle' — the Prado, Reina Sofía and Thyssen-Bornemisza art museums. Of course, standing on your feet and looking at priceless antiquities all day is tiring business, so we're sure you'll be equally grateful to return home to this home. The newly-renovated interior is bright and airy, thanks to two large windows in the living space, and playfulness abounds, whether it's those yellow chairs that instantly draw the eye, the statement lighting in the bedrooms or the artistic touches peppered about the place. Whether you're sprawling out on the corner sofa or getting some shut-eye on the comfy bed, you'll find this address will help you get the vital R&R you need ahead of another day exploring the riches of the Spanish capital.

Pop of Yellow

Surrounded by restaurants, bars, boutiques and museums, you won't need to travel far from this Eixample Esquerra home to find your fun. And that's not including the beach and Gothic Quarter, both of which can be reached in less than thirty minutes by metro. Back at home, we think you'll like the chic decor, and the kitchenette is ideal if you want to spend an evening at home after a day on your feet. And if you need to get some work done, the desk by the windows at least lets you enjoy the sunshine while you do it,

A Toast to the City

Warm and welcoming, this apartment is an excellent home-from-home in Barcelona. You’ll find it in Example Esquerra, one of the city’s most sought-after neighbourhoods – it’s a hub of culture, with lively nightlife alongside galleries and restaurants. You’ll be just a short walk from the sights of the city centre, too. We love the apartment’s full-length windows, which add to the home’s bright and breezy vibe. It’s equipped with everything you might need for a city break, including a handy workstation for those in town for business or study.

Buttercup Bloom

A modern and practical base in the vibrant and multicultural Lavapiés neighbourhood, this apartment offers a fuss-free stay on the doorstep of the Tabacalera cultural centre and Reina Sofía Museum. Some of Madrid’s most eclectic restaurants are on the doorstep, though your kitchenette is well-equipped for nights cooking at home. It’s worth noting there isn’t a lot of natural light here, but the decor is contemporary and has all the basics you could need for an easygoing stay.
