Housed in a beautiful building in Madrid’s elegant Almagro neighbourhood – known for its grand mansions, foreign embassies, and art galleries – this comfortable apartment puts you in an ideal spot to experience the city’s art, culture and gastronomy. Inside, wood floors, contemporary decor and a collection of eye-catching pieces of art create a calm and welcoming impression in the open-plan living area. The sectional sofa beckons chilled-out evenings over a good book and a glass of Spanish red, while the desk space here comes in handy for those needing to catch up on work. The dining table invites sociable breakfasts over invigorating coffees and celebratory dinners when you’re not out sampling the local tapas scene, and the three comfortable bedrooms are ready to ease you into a restful night’s sleep at the end of a long day of sightseeing. Speaking of exploring, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including the Sorolla Museum (seven minutes), bustling Gran Vía (twenty-two minutes), leafy El Retiro Park (twenty-four minutes) and the glamorous Salamanca district (fifteen minutes). Home truths: *While there's a lift in the building to reach the apartment on the fourth floor, there are nine steps to climb upon entering the building *The third bedroom doesn't have any external windows so lacks natural light *There's a desk in the living room for those needing to work from home *As you're in a central location, you may hear some street noise *The building's entrance is shared with the other residents *You'll receive an in-person check-in *There's no parking here but we recommend skipping the car and using Madrid's public transport instead – Iglesia station is a seven-minute walk away
