A six-minute stroll from the Nueva Numancia station, this minimalist apartment offers great public transport links for sightseers and commuters alike. Indoors, this home keeps things simple with its Scandinavian style, but climbing the stairs to the third floor won't work for everyone. That said, we think that the free toiletries and baby travel equipment offer a thoughtful touch to holidaymakers. Greenery awaits at the Real Jardin Botanico, and the Paseo del Prado Boulevard is a thirty-minute metro ride away.

Local guide


About Atocha

When thinking of Atocha, the mammoth train station immediately comes to mind. While it’s a transport hub connecting Madrid to all others parts of Spain, its appeal lies in more than just logistics. The station itself is full of restaurants (some are the best in the area), and the sprawling streets around it will slowly lead to some of the best museums in town. Staying here will place you within walking distance of Prado, The Reina Sofia Museum, and Retiro Park.
