About this property

Luxury Apt. Central Madrid. Barrio Letras, Steps to Museums, Plazas and GranVia

Perfect alternative to an expensive hotel room without giving up luxury or location! The apartment is on the third floor (with elevator) of a completely new building, but with original facade. It's located on a very popular street, "Calle de Huertas," situated in the Historic Center of Madrid, "Barrio de las Letras." Walking distance from the Prado, Thyssen and Reina Sofia Museums, and the Palacio Real. The apartment has a king size bed, plus additional sofa beds in the living room. Lots of light and smack dab in the middle of all the must-see, desirable places in Madrid. The bedroom has 3 walls, meaning it is not totally private. A wall/closet separates the living room from the bedroom (as can be seen in the pictures).

The apartment is right next to Plaza de Santa Ana. Near Puerta del Sol and the Plaza Mayor. You can walk to La Cava Baja, Mercado de San Miguel and also to Parque del Retiro. Truly a perfect location.

*If your stay is at least 10 days, we have a complimentary cleaning that you can schedule at check in. This includes change of towels and sheets. No charge!

*All of our sheets and towels are professionally dry cleaned.

Perfect!

We were so happy with our stay. Gorete provided us with a great written guide to Madrid that helped us plan our short visit. We arrived early in the morning and we were lucky to have access right away. The apartment is small and cozy, it was perfect size for the two of us and the a/c was nice and strong - which we definitely needed! We were walkable to everything we wanted to do and so many restaurants, cafes, and bars. We would certainly rent again when back in Madrid!

Great short stay

We stayed here at the end of our trip to Spain and it was great. High energy neighborhood, lots and of restaurants and shopping. It had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The Host was correct my only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Thank you for a great stay.

We had an amazing stay at this VRBO in the heart of Madrid’s Centro area. The location was perfect—close to major attractions, great restaurants, and lively neighborhoods. Our host was incredibly attentive, providing excellent instructions for check-in and thoughtful recommendations for things to do around the city. Their local insights truly enhanced our experience, making it easy to explore and enjoy Madrid to the fullest. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-guided stay in the city!

Wonderful spot in Barrio de las Letras

Amazing location and very pleasant studio apartment. You can easily walk to the Prado, the Palace, Plaza Mayor and hundreds of tapas bars and restaurants with outdoor seating. The apartment is just right for a couple, though you could have a friend or two crash on the sofa beds in the front room (there’s no door between them, so not ideal if you need privacy from each other.) The kitchenette and bathroom are modern and well-equipped, and you can close the windows and turn on the AC for a quiet night even if people down in the street are still having fun. Very good apartment.

Excellent Accommodations!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this phenomenal apartment during our short trip to Spain. The property was immaculate, stylishly furnished, and offered beautiful views of the surrounding area. Every modern convenience was available, making it feel like a luxurious home away from home. It was in a prime location, close to everything. The highlight of the stay, however, was the wonderful owner, Gorete. From the moment of booking, she was exceptionally communicative and helpful, providing detailed instructions and local recommendations that enhanced our trip significantly. Her warm hospitality and attention to detail ensured our stay was flawless. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a memorable and comfortable getaway in Madrid.

A Week in Madrid

The apartment was nicely furnished, and stocked with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect. In the middle of everything and within walking distance of museums, the Palacio Real, the Plaza Mayor and other must see places. We had great communication with our property manager, who provided us with a ton of information about Madrid and where we were staying. She was quick to answer any questions we had and we were greeted by her assistant on our arrival. The only negative was the washer/dryer was one unit and we didn't know how to work it. A small complaint, compared to all the positives of our stay. I would highly recommend staying here and would stay again if we ever return to Madrid.

Comfortable and great location and so much better than a hotel!

My husband and I stayed for a week while visiting our son who is studying in Madrid. The apartment - spacious and clean, stocked with everything we could need for a busy week. It was so nice to come back to the apartment to cool off from the heat and siesta before gearing up for the late nights. The Huertas neighborhood is charming, and is a home to artists, writers and musicians as well as lovely shops, great restaurants and bars. Centrally located to so many wonderful sights like El Prado, San Miguel Market, Plaza Mayor and more. Gorete, our VRBO host, was attentive to our questions during our trip planning and was very responsive when on our last night, the laundry machine stopped working. Alicia the caretaker came to the apartment on a Saturday night, beautifully dressed to go out for the night, and she and my husband emptied the laundry basin full of water by hand. Without their responsiveness, we would have had to leave a whole load of wet laundry behind! It was a wonderful week - we will be back! Thank you Gorete!

Well organized and great location

The apartment is very well organized and convenient. The only drawback is sound isolation. Unfortunately, we could hear all the movements of our neighbours, and since they went to bed pretty late, this was a nuisance for us. Something to consider if you are noise-sensitive.

Great location. Within walking distance of the Prado museum and the royal palace. Too many restaurants close by to count. Vi Cool downstairs has a varied and delicious menu. The hostess bent over backwards to make sure that everything was ok for us. Nice apartment in a secure building. Highly recommended.

Nice place in a convenient location. Clean and comfortable bed. Kitchen area has everything you need. The only complaint is the street noise after the bars close at 2 a.m. it's part of what happens in the world when young people leave the bars. I'd stay here again for sure

Great location — some problems

The location of the apartment was fabulous. Located in a lovely area of Madrid. The street was quiet even with all the activity generated by its multiple restaurants. The main Madrid attractions are within a walk or a short cab ride away. A cab stand in the square half a block away was very handy. There is a building concierge in the lobby who can be helpful.There are a few issues however. The shower doesn’t drain. It needs cleaning. It was nice to see actual instructions for the clothes washer but they aren’t the right instructions.It would be helpful to know what to do with garbage. The concierge showed us the room with the bins and we took some items to the public bins in the square. The woman in the apartment to the right of us (3D) was a bit of a problem. Apparently she works from home and is at home most of the time. She does not like noise and the walls are thin. We are in our 70’s and not very noisy but she complained once the tv was too loud so we turned it down so we could barely hear it. The second time she complained it was because we were on a zoom call with our family and apparently we were laughing too loud, so you takes your chances.

Do not hesitate!

My husband and I traveled to Madrid for a 9 day stay. These accomodations were perfect for the 2 of us (we are a 64 year old couple. Our 30 year old daughter also stayed with us for one night). First of all, Gorete (owner) and Alicia (the on-site attendant) were always at our disposal. They answered inquiries within minutes, helping to secure taxis when needed. The apartment was thoughtfully stocked: cream, sugar, condiments, tp, soap, etc. It was clean with all the conveniences from home. Because of the layout of the apartment, with the bed in the back, the light and the noise level stays in the front of the apartment (streetside). Delightful experience in a perfect neighborhood.

We have several apartments in the same building, in downtown Madrid and would like to make it available to Madrid visitors and do everything we can to make sure your stay is enjoyable and comfortable! We have been living in Madrid since the year 2000, so we are knowleageable and delighted to share all the information you may need to feel like a local.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! This is smack-dab in the middle of the historic Barrio de las Letras (Literature Neighborhood) very romantic, safe and with countless places to eat, people-watch, on a pedestrian street (no traffic).

What makes this property unique

The building was completely gutted a few years ago and they saved the facade and the 100 year old staircase, but everything else is brand-new modern construction. We have furnished and equipped the apartment with everything we would like to find in a rental, we use VRBO ourselves when we travel so we understand that small details are paramount. Besides, we have lived in Madrid for manyyears, so we are happy to steer you to the best suggestions, whether they are restaurants, site seeing, shopping, trendy restaurants, family places or unique Madrid experiences depending on your date of travel.
