For those who want to a comfortable stay right in the centre of Madrid, near Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor and the Royal Palace, the 52 m2 private apartment Apartamento Sol is a great choice, especially in the summer months, because this rare apartment has the use of a private swimming pool- a godsend in the searing heat. Enjoy its privileged location walking distance from all the major sites, in the liveliest area of the city! Just 100 metres away from Puerta del Sol, the main square from which natives and tourists both set off for a tapas bar crawl or a night out. The nearby Cervecería Alemana (Plaza Santa Ana 6) opened 1904 as a German bier keller, and to this day serves its beer in steins. Hemingway actually did drink here during his stays in Madrid, and the old place has not changed much since. Taberna Las Gabrieles (c/Echegaray, 17) has a fascinating history as it is was the bullfighter’s preferred bar (and Southern Spaniards know a thing or two about tapas) and was also a hotbed of political activity helped shape the history of modern Spain (there are also Flamenco shows on Tuesdays). The most emblematic points of the city are all pretty much centrally located within walking distance or a short metro ride- the Palacio de Oriente, Plaza Cibeles, Puerta de Alcalá, Prado Museum and Retiro Park are just some of the attractions. Visit the Rastro flea market around the corner on Sunday afternoons. This bright, warmly decorated apartment has a large bedroom with 2 single beds; a living/dining room with a dining table and chairs and a double sofa bed; a kitchen with dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave oven, washing machine, clothes dryer and iron; a full bathroom, as well as heat and AC. If you visit the city during summer, don’t miss the building’s PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL, open from July 15th - September 15th!
