Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Located amid the skyscrapers of Madrid's Azca area, this home is ideal for two couples or a family looking for a cosy base in the city. The open-plan living area is spread over two levels, letting you enjoy some time apart when needed. If cooking is on the agenda, the kitchen has everything you need, and the small dining table by the windows is a perfect spot for light meals. In the local area, you'll find several museums, high-end eateries and the Bernabeu Stadium, while if you want to explore farther afield you're just a short walk from República Argentina Station.

Home truths

    Given the home's spot near several busy roads, expect to hear some street noise during your stay.

    The kitchen has everything needed to cook meals, but it is a little light on prep space.

    There are four stairs from the kitchen to the living area here.

    You'll find a washing machine here, but not a dryer.

    If you're travelling for work, you'll find a desk in the main bedroom.

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

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.
