Sweeping city views, a communal swimming pool, and an on-site gym – there’s so much to love about this Centro apartment. And for those in the city on business, you can take your pick of two workstations when you need to catch up on emails. After a busy day taking in the local sights including the Royal Palace of Madrid, Puerto del Sol, Plaza Mayor or the Reina Sofia Museum, the private balcony is the perfect spot to end the day, sipping sangria as the sun sets.

Home truths

    There's a communal swimming pool and on-site gym to enjoy here, shared with the building's other residents. Children will need to be supervised around the pool area at all times.

    This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.

    The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.

    Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.

    This host requires your check-in to be within 3-5 days from when the last booking ends. If you are unsure if your dates will work or for help finding alternatives, please contact our Matchmaking Team.

    Please note that the building amenities such as the pool and gym may have specific hours of operation and might not be available year-round.

About Argüelles

Argüelles is a residential neighborhood of Madrid, popular with young professionals and students. It’s a green and quiet area, surrounded by parks and universities. You won’t see many tourists here – none of Madrid’s famous attractions are located in the immediate vicinity. However, the area is well-connected and you can get to the busy centre in less than 30 minutes.
