Bright and comfortable, this apartment in Madrid’s Chueca neighbourhood offers a centrally located base from which to explore the city’s sights with ease. Step into the open-plan living area to be met with a laid-back space that invites ample socialising on its sofas and chairs as the Spanish wine and conversations flow, or around the dining table for celebratory meals when you’re not out sampling the local tapas scene. With a pair of simple yet comfy bedrooms, two sofa beds for flexible sleeping arrangements and relaxing rainfall showers to boot, you’ve got everything you need for a carefree stay.

When it comes to going out and exploring, you’ve got a wealth of cultural and historic sights from which to choose nearby. Go for a stroll in beautiful El Retiro Park, admire some art at Museo Nacional del Prado and indulge in some luxury retail therapy in the upscale Salamanca district with its swish restaurants and designer boutiques.
