Luxury Apt. Central Madrid. Barrio Letras, Steps to Museums, Plazas and GranVia
About this condo rental
Located in Centro, this charming condo for $233 per night is a great choice for your next break. 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.

This wonderful, renovated apartment overlooking LasHuertas- a street full of boutiques and tapas bars…and historic as the heart of the literary quarter had everything! We visited all three “golden trio” museums- a quick walk away. Walked to everything, actually! So many great restaurants! We took the host’s advice and found the mushroom restaurant one night, too.

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.

This is a fantastic spot, close to metro and the center city sights and sounds of Madrid. The accommodations were wonderful, and Gorete was a very responsive and wonderful host. The location is close to good breakfast and tapas spots within very close walking distance. The accommodations were clean, comfortable and well laid out for our family of four - posed no problems at all. Would recommend and book again!

This is the best VRBO property I have used. (And I have stayed at quite a few all over the U.S.) The location cannot be beat. The owner/manager Gorete Fieira is both responsive and a great source of local information. The on-site concierge, Alicia, is also terrific. The apartment is kept spotlessly clean and is very well equipped, including the appliances. A fantastic place!

Well thought out and appointed apartment on a wonderful street. Walked everywhere-Retiro, Prado, Plaza Mayor, Puerta del Sol, El Rastro, etc. great communication and a lovely space- I would come back again (and stay a month)!

This apartment is in an excellent location and closest by foot to the three major art museums, tons of eating options and not too far from a couple of metro stations.
The place itself is a modern, cozy and highly functional home away from home. It is spacious enough to be able to relax and do practical things like laundry. Gorete is the best VRBO host we have ever had. She has been so responsive and full of great information prior to our arrival and when we arrived. She understands when you travel from abroad that detailed instructions even for the simplest things inside the apartment or advice on how to get to the apartment helps travellers feel more confident and less worried about the little things. It is so great she tries to arrange to have someone meet you in person upon arrival. Muchas gracias, Gorete!

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!

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.

We had an amazing time staying at this beautiful, stylish apartment in the middle of downtown Madrid and its many attractions. Gorete, the owner, is an incredible ambassador and was quick to communicate. She provided lots of wonderful background on the neighborhood and its history as well as great suggestions for dining and entertainment. Check in was easy and efficient. I can't wait to return to this wonderful city.

My friend and I really enjoyed our stay here! It was perfect for us - great location and very clean. Note that the bed is not comfortable, so if you need a comfy bed to sleep, this probably isn’t your spot. Otherwise, no complaints here and was a great stay!

Beautiful, well equipped apartment. Fantastic, well located - we walked everywhere! Our host ensured we were welcomed and provided detailed information about the apartment, restaurants nearby, things to see and do etc. We would return in a second!

The location of this apartment cannot be beat. We walked everywhere with our 12-yo and 9-yo kids. But because it is very central, do be aware that there may be rowdy revelers late at night. For example, my 12-yo was awoken at 3 am by a large group of folks chanting and cheering as they walked by the street (like soccer match-type cheering). We were prepared for this though, and gave our 12-yo earplugs. She fell right back to sleep (her mama, on the other hand, was another story).
Gorete was also a wonderful host and very accommodating - we arrived late at night and she made arrangements for someone to meet us and let us in.
Thank you, Gorete - we will try to make it back to Madrid and stay at your wonderful apartment again!

The apartment was equipped with the basics as well as many thoughtful extras in the kitchen and bathroom, from a new package of coffee, olive oil, different sweeteners to individual wrapped toothbrushes and a shaver plus nice body wash, etc. The owner put together a useful binder of good info and tips, read it first thing, it will save you lots of time! Plus she is always available for a message and responds quickly.
There are wonderful restaurants right on the same block, esp the Vietnamese on the corner, excellent!
The clubs on the block can get a bit boisterous so I took OTC sleep aids like Melatonin or a P.M. ibuprofen but a better idea may be to simply join them 😊
Great place, good strong shower, lots of room to spread out. Nuf said.

Great location
The apartment was just as it appeared in the pictures and reviews. Gorete was a terrific host! As some of the reviews mentioned, it can get a little noisy at night but cities can be loud and this wasn’t a big issue for us. We loved the location and appreciated the king sized bed and spotless apartment!

We are experienced, retired travelers on our first trip to Madrid. We were thrilled to have found 11 Huertas in Las Letras. Gorete’s lovely flat is within easy walking distance to the Prado Museum, the beautiful Retiro Park and a host of other cultural activities. Every little street brought an adventure of some sort with bistros, tapas bars and beautiful architecture. We found farm to table restaurants and welcoming locals. We enjoyed the neighborhoods and streets surrounding this fully fitted, meticulously clean flat. Gorete and her assistant, Alicia were readily available to answer questions, offer suggestions and assist. We highly recommend you to choose staying here on your travels to Madrid.

The apartment is cozy, very functional and extremely well-located. The building is very well-maintained and elegant. The only drawback is that because one is located in the heart of the City, there is a lot of street noise nearly every night of the week, owing especially to the presence of two nightclubs below. Still, one is within walking distance of the museums, Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, Chueca, Lavapies, Atocha train station, etc. There is no shortage of great restaurants, pharmacies, tapa bars, and supermarkets.
