Vida Romantica

Vida Romantica: Community of Madrid

Step out of the door of this stylish studio, and you are just a two-minute walk from Madrid's most famous street, Gran Vía. Here you'll find some of the capital's most iconic buildings, as well as boutiques, restaurants and bars aplenty. Or, for romantics, head to the Museum of Romanticism, ten minutes on foot. It's around the same walking distance to Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza with its masterpieces by Van Gogh, Caravaggio and Lichtenstein. The gay-friendly neighbourhood of Chueca, on the other hand, packed with cafes, tapas bars and bustling markets such as San Antón and Plaza del Dos de Mayo, is a seven-minute saunter.

Back at this home, open the French doors and admire the ornate architecture. Mix up a tinto de verano to enjoy on the balcony, or savour some huevos estrellados at your dining table inside for dinner. The light and bright living space is complemented by whitewashed walls, dark wood floors and interesting artworks. This place is perfect for a couple or solo traveller looking to be within walking distance from many of Madrid’s attractions.
