Few cities can rival Madrid’s vibrancy and charm and this bright and cosy apartment situated at its heart is the ideal place from which to explore all the wonders that this magical city has to offer. This place may be small in scale but that takes nothing away from its appeal. Step through the front door to find yourself in the warm embrace of the open-plan living area. We love the elegant wallpaper with its floral pattern and the unique artworks adorning the walls. This is a great space to relax after a day of dashing about town – snuggle up on the sofa with a glass of Spanish wine or whip up a quick and delicious supper in the well-equipped kitchen. You can enjoy your meals at the stylish dining table which also does a great job as a laptop-friendly office spot. For a taste of nighttime luxury head to the plush bedroom which carries the promise of restful sleep. Factor in the sparkling bathroom and you’ve got everything you need for a restful stay. When it comes to enjoying all the pleasures of Madrid you could hardly pick a better location: just a few minutes away from the... Royal Palace and close to many of the city’s most iconic sights, you’ll be able to truly immerse yourself in the capital’s unique vibes.

Home truths
The home is on the fourth floor – there is no elevator and so you'll need to climb several flights of stairs. This is not suitable for those with reduced mobility.
As seen in the photos, the bathroom is very small.
Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot.
Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.

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.
