Situated at the top of a building complex in one of Madrid's most vibrant areas, this charismatic loft is a unique way to experience the Spanish capital. Tailor-made for friends or family with a penchant for art and original design, it oozes character from every angle. Rustic stone walls look into deluxe wooden furnishings, creating a homely vibe that puts you instantly at ease. The entire home spreads across two floors, which exudes a cosy energy without being crowded. Once you've finished marvelling at your premium home, the magnetic energy of Madrid is just a moment away. Major landmarks, such as the iconic Royal Palace, can be easily reached on foot. Embark on a day of sightseeing, fuelled by pit-stops at the authentic cafes and restaurants for fresh sangria and tasty paella. When the sun shines on the charming metropolis, there are an abundance of luscious parks to rest your legs. If you'd prefer a low-key evening, you can rustle up some tapas in the kitchen and share food and conversation over the dining table.

Local guide
About Lavapiés
Like many neighbourhoods on the rise, Lavapiés proudly displays its rough edges. The Times Magazine has recently included it in the 50 best neighbourhoods to live in the world, and it’s not hard to understand its appeal. It’s a melting pot of cultures, bravely experimenting with international influences. Lavapiés is full of contrast — some streets have already embraced a more luxurious vibe with chic boutiques and fusion restaurants popping up every month, while others are still filled with artistic squats and street vendors. It’s the ultimate antidote to boredom.
