Occupying a privileged position in Madrid’s famous Plaza Mayor, this beautifully styled apartment puts you in the heart of the city, with countless points of cultural and historic interest right on your doorstep. Housed in a building dating back to the 17th century, elegance and modernity come together in perfect harmony here. Dressed in a sophisticated white and grey palette, the living area strikes a stunning chord with its modern art, contemporary furnishings and ample natural light. Open up the French doors to step out onto a private balcony overlooking Plaza Mayor – the perfect spot to people-watch over your morning coffee or celebratory evening sundowner. The bedroom area, meanwhile, is just as chic with its beautifully dressed bed, while the sleek kitchenette is all set to whip up intimate meals when you’re not delighting in the local tapas restaurants or sampling the Spanish delicacies at the San Miguel Market (a three-minute walk away). When it comes to sightseeing, you need only walk out your front door to be standing within one of the city’s most iconic squares, while both Gran Vía and the Royal Palace of Madrid are a ten-minute walk away. You’re also a four-minute stroll... from bustling Puerta del Sol, and the world-renown Museo Nacional del Prado is just under twenty minutes away on foot.

Home truths
It's on the first floor of a building with no lift, so it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
At capacity, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room – this will be at the expense of lounge space, however, so we think this home is better suited to two adults
A cot is available on request
As you're in a wonderfully central location, you may hear some street noise
Well-behaved pets are welcome to stay with prior agreement from your host
There's a laptop-friendly workspace
A change of bedding and towels is provided every six nights
The building's entrance is communal
We recommend skipping the car here and making use of Madrid's public transport instead – Sol station is a three-minute walk away
