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.

Bull's eye.
An excellent location and a delightful apartment, Gorete's property offered convenience, quiet (even on a very busy street) and rest after wandering around Madrid. Check in was smooth and the management unobtrusive but efficient. The entire property presented well and literally, was steps from bars and restaurants (none of which could be heard at night) and a short walk from Plaza Mayor, the Prado and Reina Sofia. The apartment was spotlessly clean. The shower hot with a strong water flow, always welcome after a hard day of 'touristing'. Gorete was proactive as a host and the staff who looked after us charming and helpful, despite language barriers

Noisy at night
Enjoyed our stay as we went to the Madrid Tennis. The noise from the bar across the road was very loud, went on until 3am. Very annoying Would have been great to have an expresso coffee machine. Don’t like drip coffee . The apartment was well equipped.

The comforts of home
The apartment was perfect for us - it was close to everything we love - galleries, great food and the buzz of the city! Everything in the apartment was really comfortable and a great respite from the heat of the day. A well stocked kitchen made it easy to apply our culinary prowess should we so desire, while the local bars provided adequate opportunity to sample some wonderful tapas, cervezza or a glass or two of a local wine. Fantastic all round!

At home in Madrid
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

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!

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.

Perfect apartment in great area
My husband and I had a great week in Madrid, staying at this apartment. Well furnished with adequate kitchen equipment to do some cooking, a combo washer/dryer. On 3rd floor with a well functioning elevator. Many restaurants and bars nearby, convenient to taxi stands. Short walk to train station for day trips. Located on a lively street, but the noise did not keep as awake. Host was great Very responsive.

Great Location and Apartment
This apartment was perfect for our 1 week stay in Madrid! The location is great. It was close to many of the places we wanted to visit, and there were Metro and Bus stops nearby for other places. We could even walk to the train station for our day trip to Toledo. The apartment itself was fantastic - having a kitchen was very convenient and we walked to markets nearby for supplies. Having a combination washer & dryer unit enabled us to do the trip with minimal luggage. The AC was able to keep up with the hot August summer weather and the wireless internet was faster than we have at home!

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.

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.

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.
