Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
With its earthy colour scheme, natural textures and old-world charm, this design-led apartment in the heart of Malasaña is a place to relax and take it easy. Enjoy slow-start mornings in the serene living space – listen to a record play on the turntable as you nurse a coffee on the soft sofa. When you’re ready for something to eat, the modern kitchen has everything you need for rustling up Spanish-inspired dishes. After catching up on emails or penning a postcard at the dedicated workspace, head out and explore the city. Take a tour of the Royal Palace of Madrid before people-watching from a cafe in the bustling Plaza Mayor. Shop along the Gran Vía or soak up the glorious sunshine in El Retiro Park. In the early evening, tuck into tapas in a nearby bar, then return to your abode for a blissful night’s sleep in the serene bedrooms.
