Located on a pedestrianised street in the heart of Madrid, this apartment is perfect for those who want to check out the city’s most famous sights. The Royal Palace, Plaza de España and Plaza Mayor are within easy walking distance, and the Sol metro station is nearby for trips outside the centre. Back at home, there is a private terrace for alfresco dining (although it's a little dated) and two cosy bedrooms. The curtains, however, don’t fully block out the sunlight, so we recommend packing an eye mask if you plan to enjoy a lie-in.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace. *Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible. *If you need to pick up provisions during your stay, there’s a small supermarket a five-minute walk away. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *The terrace is a little dated. We think it could use a refresh. *The bedroom curtains here don't fully block out the sunlight. If you're hoping to enjoy a lie-in, you might want to pack an eye mask.
