Hotel Details

Location

Steps from Puerta del Sol and Sol metro, placing you at the heart of historic Madrid within walking distance of Gran Vía, Royal Palace, and Plaza Mayor.
The entrance is less than a hundred meters from Sol Metro station (lines 1, 2, and 3), and the apartments sit directly on a pedestrian street buzzing with shops, bars, and restaurants. Most of Madrid's major sights - Gran Vía, the Royal Palace, Plaza Mayor, and the Museo del Prado - are within a 15-20 minute walk. For supermarket needs, there are grocery stores and pharmacies just steps away. The pedestrian street outside the building means no car access for drop-off at the door; you will need to walk a block or two from the nearest taxi or ride-share drop-off point.

Accommodation

Soundproofed apartments with fully equipped kitchenettes, air conditioning, and private bathrooms. Units range from compact studios to two-bedroom layouts.
The apartments are decorated in warm tones and come with a wardrobe, desk, flat-screen TV, and tea/coffee making facilities. Kitchenettes include a microwave, coffee machine, refrigerator, and basic cookware. Bed configurations vary: studios often have two single beds, while larger units can have one double and two single beds plus a sofa bed in the living area. Some two-bedroom apartments have two separate bathrooms with showers. A number of apartments feature a balcony with city views. While the apartments are centrally located, double glazing keeps the interiors quiet. Note that some studio apartments are on the fifth floor, accessible only by stairs.

Dining

No on-site restaurant or breakfast is served; each apartment has a kitchenette for self-catering, and the area around Puerta del Sol is packed with cafés, tapas bars, and restaurants.
There is no dedicated hotel dining facility, but the apartments' fully equipped kitchenettes make self-catering straightforward for breakfasts or light meals. The immediate neighborhood offers a wide array of eating options within a 200-500 meter radius: from traditional jamón bars like Museo del Jamón and Casa Labra to sit-down restaurants such as Restaurante Botín and Inclán Brutal Bar. Several bakeries and cafeterias are within a minute's walk, with one bakery directly below the apartments. The food scene is both diverse and walkable, suiting short-stay visitors who prefer eating out.

Leisure

There are no on-site spa, pool, or gym facilities. The location in central Madrid provides immediate access to the city's parks, shopping, and cultural attractions.

Amenities

Free high-speed Wi-Fi, luggage storage, tour desk, and digital self-check-in via app. Private parking can be arranged nearby for €20/day.
All apartments have soundproofing, air conditioning, heating, and a flat-screen TV. The property offers a digital check-in system using an app for both check-in and door opening, providing flexibility for late arrivals. Free luggage storage is available at the reception office (Calle de Bordadores 9) from 11:00, allowing you to explore the city before check-in and after check-out. Housekeeping is provided for stays of two nights or more, with a free mid-stay cleaning and towel change. A paid airport shuttle can be arranged via the property. The building has CCTV in common areas and fire extinguishers.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Use the digital check-in app and electronic door lock for contactless and flexible arrival, avoiding the need to visit a separate office.

  • 02

    Request a room on a lower floor if stairs are a concern, as the building has no elevator and some apartments are on the upper floors.

  • 03

    Arrive via Sol metro station (line 1, 2, 3) to reach the doorstep in under two minutes, avoiding city-center traffic.
