About this property

Elegant apartment next to the Prado, Thyssen and Reina Sofia

Next to the Prado and Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Reina Sofía, CaixaForum and the Círculo de Bellas Artes. Cibeles, Las Cortes, Plaza Mayor and Sol.
The District of the Letters takes its name in homage to the great writers who inhabited its streets in Century of Gold. Cervantes, Quevedo or Lope de Vega ... The charm of its pedestrian streets and its many shops and restaurants make it especially lively, yet elegant and without excessive noise.
The building is from the late nineteenth century renovated and with elevator. Very cozy and quiet.

88 m² Recently renovated, it opens as a tourist accommodation.
The flat consists of two bedrooms en suite with full baths, one with bath and one with shower. Full kitchen. Spacious living room.
Full equipped. With all appliances, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, kettle, iron, hair dryer ...
It is elegant, comfortable and quiet. The sofa bed is 1. 30m easy to open and available upon request.
I offer coffee capsules, tea, infusions, Cola Cao, juices, milk, sugar, buns and sweets ... everything you need for a good breakfast.
Also, to prepare something to eat, it has olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, soda, beers ......

There is a porter from 9am to 2pm and from 5pm to 8pm from Monday to Friday

If you want, I can pick you up and take you to the airport or station. Give them the directions you need from the city. Help you with public transport. Recommend restaurants, shops, shows. Count on me for what you need. I will leave maps of the city, the transports and the most important points of interest.
You will find reading about the most relevant attractions of Madrid and other Spanish cities.
There is a map of the world in which the guests leave a record of their country of origin and a map of the area so that you locate the points of interest without problem.

The building is very beautiful inside and out, S XIX but renovated and with elevator, although it maintains the flavor of its era. It is a quiet neighbors community, so you have to avoid noisy events.

You will find the written instructions, the key WIFI (optical fiber), operation of the electrical appliances, etc. Anyway, there is a doorman who can lend a hand if you need.

The District of the Letters takes its name in homage to the great writers who inhabited its streets in Century of Gold. Cervantes, Quevedo or Lope de Vega passed through this area between the Paseo del Prado and the Plaza de Santa Ana, one of the most popular in Madrid because of the charm of its pedestrian streets and its many shops and restaurants that make it especially lively. weekends.

From the Plaza de Santa Ana, famous for its terraces and tapas bars, streets like the one in Huertas, whose cobblestones are engraved by great writers in Castilian, slope down to the Paseo del Prado. It is precisely in Lope de Vega Street, in the church of San Ildefonso (Convent of the Barefoot Trinitarians), a commemorative plaque remembers that in an undetermined place of the building rests the remains of the author of The Ingenious Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha, Miguel de Cervantes. Not far from there we find the house-museum of the great playwright Lope de Vega - curiously on Cervantes Street - which is also buried in the neighborhood, in the church of San Sebastián (Calle Atocha).

One of the favorite quotes from the regulars is the Frog Market. On the first Saturday of each month, local merchants take their products to the streets, decorate their windows and offer special promotions, while concerts and street theater enliven the atmosphere.

Metro stations nearby (less than 7 'on foot): Bank, Sevilla, Sol, Atocha. Crowd of buses. Stop of the 2 'City Tour in Neptune. Walk to Plaza Mayor 11 ', to Sol 7', Museo del Prado 5 ', Thyssen-Bornemisza 2', Las Cortes 1 '
It is surrounded by restaurants, taverns and cafés of the most pleasant.

Agréable séjour
L'appartement est très bien situé et permet d'avoir accès rapidement aux principaux attraits touristiques de Madrid. Une dame nous a accueillis et nous a expliqué rapidement ce qu'on retrouve dans l'appartement. Il faut savoir que toutes les fenêtres donnent sur une cour intérieure et qu'il n'y a pas de climatiseur. Par contre, il y a plusieurs ventilateurs. L'immeuble et le quartier sont très tranquilles. La cuisine est bien équipée et on a accès à une laveuse à linge. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour à Madrid.

Adequate
Older property with an excellent location. Could use some minor updating. Needs to replace bed in the main bedroom. Needs 1 additional hairdryer. Needs a new espresso machine that accepts commonly found pods. We searched every store around and could not purchase any replacements. That being said, we enjoyed our stay, because it is really well located for the price.

Nice apartment in an interesting neighborhood
We very much enjoyed our stay at Sol’s apartment in Madrid Centro. The neighborhood, Las Letras, is just west of The Prado and Thyssen-Bornemisza museums is a vibrant one with many cafes, tapas bars and restaurants. The apartment is an easy walk-up – on the second floor – but there is also a lift for your arrival and departure with luggage. The generous and well-laid-out space itself is just as pictured on the VRBO site with beautiful hardwood floors, two generous bedrooms with ample closet space, two roomy bathrooms and a smallish but workable kitchen. (Certainly not the smallest kitchen I’ve used in Europe.) We only prepared breakfasts there; but you could cook if you wanted to eat in. It was nice and quiet for sleeping. A washing machine was a welcome plus. Good security locks on the inside of the door. Sol was a responsive host through VRBO and someone met us for check-in, going over all the details of the apartment. All in all, a very nice city apartment; we would certainly stay there again.

Family stay
We had a great time at Sol’s place after Christmas through New Year’s Day! We walked everywhere and enjoyed all the restaurants that were around the apartment. The apartment was plenty big for the four of us. I loved how they had coffee there for us and someone was waiting for us to let us know what was nearby when we got there. Agar was especially helpful. You are about a block or two from the Prado and Retiro park. Many other neighborhoods nearby are fun to walk through and experience. We didn’t take a cab anywhere. We walked between 5 and 9 miles a day!

Where you want to stay in Madrid!
Sol's apartment is the perfect spot to see all Madrid has to offer. A very short walk to many of the city's top museums, Retiro Park, great shopping and excellent food and drink. Sol provided a great list of restaurants and bars - not tourist traps, but wonderful spots where she and other locals go. We hit many of her recommendations and were thrilled with all of them. Roomy, clean, perfectly located. Would gladly stay there again on a future trip to Madrid.
