Plaza Promises

Plaza Promises: Community of Madrid

It’s not every day that you get the chance to stay within a world-famous landmark. But this beautiful apartment sitting within Madrid’s famous Plaza Mayor offers just that, and so much more.

Wonderfully modern yet boasting traces of the building’s history within its carefully curated design, the home offers privileged views across the plaza, best enjoyed from its many Juliet balconies. Make yourself at home in the open-plan living room and open up the French doors to gaze out onto the goings-on below over your morning coffee or evening glass of Spanish red. The stunning main bedroom – boasting an original headboard from a 17th-century monastery and a stunning gold-accented en-suite – offers equally privileged views you’ll relish waking up to.

Throughout, you’ll find parquet floors, eye-catching works of art and an abundance of natural light. Not to mention a selection of luxe additions courtesy of your host, including the option to book chauffeurs, personal trainers and private chefs.

While you could easily spend all day admiring the ever-changing city tableau from the comfort of your home, step outside your door to be immersed in the heart of the city. From here, you’ve got easy access to countless points of interest, not least of all Puerta del Sol (a four-minute walk), the Royal Palace of Madrid (a ten-minute walk) and Gran Vía (a twelve-minute walk).
