Duplex penthouse with terrace in pure center, 2 to 8 people, at Puerta del Sol
About this condo rental
This penthouse with two heights, retains the taste of old Madrid. Its recesses, its exposed wooden beams, its original floors where they have been preserved and its attic and asymmetrical rooms, give it a rare personality, which we wanted to protect, but giving it everything necessary to make your stay comfortable and pleasant . The terrace, a jewel for the enjoyment of the Madrid sun, which can be enjoyed for much of the day and for much of the year. Two different spaces for leisure and relaxation, one below and one above, on both floors there is a living room with double sofa bed and TV, bedroom with double bed and bathroom, everything you need to let your mind wander after a busy day of tourism or focus on reading, without disturbing or being disturbed. Access to the terrace is located on the ground floor. Also with the furniture, we wanted to preserve a certain taste of old Madrid, recovering pieces that transport us away from the uniform decorative modernity. All textiles, both bedding and towels, are 100% sustainable cotton. You will feel very comfortable in this cozy and warm atmosphere. Perhaps because there are stairs inside the attic, it is not the ideal accommodation for small children or older people or with difficulty moving. The building does have an elevator. You will find on your arrival, cold drinks in the refrigerator, juices, milk, coffee, infusions and some pastries for your first breakfast, in addition to the essentials for cooking, oil and vinegar, salt, spices and all the necessary kitchenware, with Nice tableware You can count on me during your stay, for what you need, restaurant reservations, advise shows, solve any unforeseen events, etc. You can smoke on the terrace, but only on the terrace. The area around Puerta del Sol is the biggest attraction for tourists who come to visit Madrid and the pure center of the city. It is also one of the main shopping places and in its bars and terraces the canes and the soft drinks happen without stopping. It is the home besides the Bear and the Madroño, symbol of the capital. At the Puerta del Sol in Madrid, in front of the Post Office (headquarters of the Presidency of the Government of the Community of Madrid and building in which the famous clock that gives the twelve bells of New Year's Eve is located) is the famous Kilometer Zero from Madrid. It is a tile located on the same sidewalk and made of granite and brass that marks the point from which the kilometers of the roads begin to be counted. Its meaning does not go beyond, it is humble and practical, but the truth is that many tourists love to stand next to her and take pictures. That kilometric point 0 makes them feel like in the very center of Spain and that magical situation is what awakens so much expectation. Just 10 minutes walking we reach the Paseo del Arte. Surely the Paseo del Arte is one of the places in the world with the greatest concentration of beauty. And in just over a kilometer are the Prado Museum, the Thyssen-Bornemisza and the Reina Sofía (which can be visited jointly by buying the Paseo del Arte Card) to which other institutions and buildings must visit . It is a unique itinerary in the world in which three of the most important Museums follow each other, located in a beautiful and emblematic area of Madrid, the Paseo del Prado. This artistic triangle known internationally as 'Paseo del Arte' allows us to see the great masters of the history of universal art gathered in a few meters. Millions of visits to these three great Museums are registered annually. The great wealth of the National Heritage, of the Palaces and Museums of Madrid, form an exceptional artistic ensemble in the Community of Madrid and an additional incentive to visit the city. Being the nerve center of the city, all transports pass through it, train, subway, buses, taxis .... all but the private vehicle, since the area is APR (residential priority area) with access restricted to residents , but it can be passed to access the numerous public car parks nearby.

The location can’t be beat! It’s steps away from Puerta del Sol. There are so many restaurants and shops all around. The apartment itself is wonderfully maintained. Very clean and comfortable enough for 4-adults (2 couples having their own separate rooms & bathrooms). Having the patio was a bonus. To be able to sit outside to enjoy the sun & drink coffee in the privacy of one’s own place is amazing! All in all, an amazing spot!

The apartment was at the top floor of a building with a hostel in it. This made the stay very loud at night as you could hear people talking and the elevator running (which sounded like thunder) in the bedrooms until 2-3 am. The place also smelled like smoke when we arrived, which was a negative for us.
The location and the decor of the apartment are great. I would only recommend staying here if you plan to be out late at night and use the apartment more as a jumping off point for adventures, rather than a place to relax.

Great property in a perfect location to tour around!

Family of four - 2 adults and 2 teens - thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely apartment. The location is perfect - everything is walking distance and there are many restaurant choices. The owner was very quick to respond to emails and upon arrival provided lots of good restaurant and shopping recommendations. It was very hot in Madrid while we were there, so very thankful the air conditioning worked in the main room and upstairs bedrooms. The back bedroom does not have air conditioning, so it did get hot.

This property was an excellent stay for the price. The location is so close to Plaza del Sol, therefore easy to get to the main area and the Sol train station. Easy to bring luggage from/to the train station, not ideal for taxi outside the apartment. There is an elevator and air conditioning in the main room and in the upper two rooms (which houses the pullout couch and the room with the short ceiling) which is great. There is not air conditioning on the bedroom behind the kitchen but there is a fan. The patio is very peaceful. Also, the stairs are not ideal for folks with mobility issues due to a lack of solid handrail. This was greta for us, as my in-laws stayed downstairs and we stayed upstairs.

The apartment was exactly as described. We couldn't have asked for a better location - convenient to restaurants, transportation, attractions. There are lots of wonderful restaurants very near by but the apartment is still quiet at night. It is, however, located near the elevator motor. The motor was not audible from anywhere in the apartment except the bedrooms where it sounded like intermittent distant thunder. We were able to sleep through it without a problem. The "thunder" diminished and finally ceased each night around midnight. All in all, a great place to stay!

Everything you need
We stayed during a heat wave and the ACs really saved us. Everything was perfect. The top floor bedroom ceiling is really low and I at 5'2" did knock my head a couple times so just keep that in mind :)

Location is great and owner was easy to get a hold of. Building isn’t very sound proof so the rooms close to the hallway and elevator get a lot of noise. Air conditioning isn’t great either especially for the main back room. Pictures make it seem bigger than it is but for the price was good.

Perfect location for “First timers” to Madrid!
We arrived mid summer to Madrid and of course it’s a little hot. The apartment has three AC units (two upstairs and one down) so it stays plenty cool when you’re inside. There is also a cute private patio off the main floor which we used at night and early morning. The apartment is located near la Plaza del Sol where you’ll find everything from a major supermarket to fun restaurants to street vendors. The plaza never sleeps but the apartment will give you peace and quiet when you need it. It’s on the top floor and there is an elevator! Agar and Sol contacted us several times before our trip to make sure of our travel arrangements and sightseeing needs. They were great and our stay in Madrid was super!

Top quality location
Everything worked fine. Sol is an excellent host! She cared for everything and was really helpful in any respect (taxis, tickets, places to go etc etc). Thank you very much!
The apartment is tastefully furnished and well equipped, but a bit narrow (narrow staircase to the upper ooms), not so good for elderly people. Be careful with your head in the upstairrs bedroom.
An altogether good tip.
