This colour-splashed apartment sits in the elegant Chamberí neighbourhood. Away from Madrid's go-to sights, there are still hidden-gem museums, international eateries, and green spots on your doorstep. Despite the room to sleep and seat four guests, there isn't a wall to separate the bedroom from the living area. Some may find this home better suited to romantic getaways or solo adventures, given the lack of privacy and storage space. But easy public transport links let you tick everything off your bucket list.

Home truths:
*This home does not accept groups of young people, please check with your host which age restrictions apply. *Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area. There are no walls to separate the bedroom from the living area, so privacy is limited. *Parking in Madrid can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible. *If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.
