In the heart of Madrid’s artsiest neighbourhood, Barrio de las Letras, this studio apartment is the perfect base for a cultural city break. First of all, you’ve got the world-famous Prado museum a five-minute walk away, then there’s the sprawling greenery of Retiro Park, just seven minutes on foot. If locally-grown fresh food and lazy lunches of tapas are your thing, head to Antón Martín Market, an eight-minute walk away.
Perhaps stock up and head back to your quiet bolthole, where a compact but fully-equipped kitchen awaits. Floor-to-ceiling French-style windows let the sunshine stream in, so dining at the table inside is a delight during the day. The decor is neutral and soothing in dove-grey and dusky pinks. The best bit? You can take your fresh olives from the market and a bottle of wine up to the shared rooftop terrace where an outdoor lounge with rooftop views awaits.
Home truths: *At capacity, one guest would be on the sofa bed in the open studio space
*This is a studio so space is at a premium
*The rooftop terrace is shared with other apartments in the building
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair for infants, just ask
*There is no parking with this apartment but you're in the centre of Madrid and there are paid public car parks nearby
*This apartment is not on the ground floor and there is no lift in the building so you'll have to climb some stairs to reach it
