Among the grand 19th-century boulevards, glamourous fine dining restaurants and designer boutiques of Salamanca, this luxurious apartment is brimming with traditional charm. Extraordinary bay windows and ornate moldings make this home truly special, and combined with plenty of contemporary touches, this is somewhere you'll look forward to spending time. The building boasts a gym and spa, so you can start your days with some well-deserved self-care with a workout, swim and sauna session to set you up for a day of discovering the city. You'll be a stone's throw from the famous "Golden Mile" here, meaning you've got an array of high-end eateries and boutiques practically on your doorstep. Spend a few hours indulging in a little retail therapy, then head to Platea Madrid for lunch, an upscale market that's a favourite among locals thanks to its gourmet food offerings. After a day of sampling the rich culture and gorgeous architecture of Madrid, head back for a peaceful evening at home. You'll have your own kitchenette here, which has everything you need to craft some delicious food for dinner. Open up the patio doors and bring the outside in for a dining experience like no other, then take a glass of... wine outside on the balcony to watch the sun set over the city.

Local guide
About Salamanca
Salamanca is Madrid’s most glamorous and prestigious quarter. Usually associated with aristocratic façades, wide avenues, and luxurious living (atypical for Madrid’s cosy centre), the neighbourhood attracts domestic and international elite. It’s also home to many embassies and private schools, as well as niche museums and designer boutiques along its ‘Golden Mile’. The demanding clientele has made the food scene equally exclusive, but while you’re likely to find quite a few Michelin-star restaurants in the area, there are lots of relaxed tapas bars for those less willing to splash the cash.
