This sophisticated Spanish abode can be found on a quiet street in Madrid’s historic centre. The living room is bright and modern, with Scandistyle furnishings, boho cushions and a family dining table. We love the steel-framed glass wall, separating the living room from the master bedroom (with curtain for privacy of course) and the immaculate bathrooms with hotel-style extras (think fluffy towels and spa-like toiletries). The location is top-notch too. You’re within walking distance of many of the city’s highlights, including the Real Jardín Botánico, the Prado Museum and the Círculo de Bellas Artes. Spend your days trawling Madrid’s stylish boutiques, sipping coffee on bustling squares and visiting vibrant art galleries. In the evenings, it’s all about the tapas and bar culture – with more drinking establishments than any other city on the planet, you won’t know where to begin first.
