Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Furnished with attention to detail and an appreciation for natural materials, this home knows how to make the best out of its assets. While the two balconies make sure that there's plenty of light in the living room and kitchen, wooden details in each room add to a coherent style that is most obviously expressed through the exposed wooden beams. We felt that the two bedrooms could benefit from an update, but the living room with the open-plan kitchen is one of the most stylish spaces we've seen in Madrid so far.

Local guide
About Opera y Palacio Real
The small neighbourhood of Opera y Palacio Real sits next to the Royal Palace and its grand squares with manicured gardens. It’s also home to El Teatro Royal, the grand opera house. This part of town has an abundance of space and is far less busy than other parts of central Madrid – the calmness of the area makes it popular with families. You’ll find high-end local shops to peruse, as well as excellent restaurants, in this refined and sedate neighbourhood.

Get a dose of green at Plaza de España
Pay a visit to the famous monument to Miguel de Cervantes and his famous characters. Plaza de España is a green oasis with some of the most postcard-worthy views of Madrid.
Visit a small part of Egypt at Templo de Debod
Given as a present, Templo de Debod is an original 2nd Century BC Egyptian temple that was relocated to be preserved from flood damage.

Locally recommended, La Bola is a typical Spanish restaurant that has had its doors open for more than 150 years.

Dine in a former convent at Café de Oriente
Located in the vaulted basement of the former San Gil convent, this unique restaurant serves traditional Spanish food. You can also dine upstairs in the cafe with palace views.
Mix and Match at the Cereal Hunters Café
These childhood-rekindling cafes that offer a variety of cereals, as well as pop tarts and other naughty breakfasts, have been taking over the Spanish capital by storm.
Indulge in churros at San Ginés
Churros in Madrid are almost compulsory. We recommend San Ginés, one of the oldest chocolate shops in the city.
Escape to El Invernadero de Salvador Bachiller
Those who love this restaurant call it a peaceful oasis in Gran Via. Its menu is small, yet concise, popular especially during brunch–and with vegans.
Shop for unique presents at El Moderno
This is souvenir shopping on a different level. El Moderno is a lovely concept store with original items and unique gifts.
