Setting the tone for a cool stay in the heart of Madrid, this newly renovated top floor apartment captures the charm of its historic setting. Leaving the busy streets behind, the front door opens onto a minimal and light-filled space. Features such as the mid-century modern furnishings and contemporary artwork create an eclectic ambience. It’s refreshingly simple and urban here. But there are all the amenities you could need for a comfortable city stay. From the living area, the striking staircase leads up to the bed, seemingly floating on a mezzanine. Soak in the vibrant atmosphere of the city and walk to iconic locations like La Plaza Mayor, La Puerta del Sol and the Royal Palace. The nearby metro also provides great connections to the rest of the city.

Local guide
About Puerta del Sol
Puerta del Sol is the epicentre of the city and home to Madrid’s most famous meeting point – ‘Oso y El Madroño’, the bear with the strawberry tree. The central square of this neighbourhood is quite literally where all the roads in the Iberian peninsula lead to, which means it’s really hard to get lost if this is where you want to go. This area is popular both day and night, with buskers, natives, and tourists snapping photos of some of Madrid’s most iconic sights.
