Recommended accommodation in Madrid: Olavide Apartments
While Madrid slides into the Fiestas de San Isidro and the young urban dwellers eagerly await Mulafest, spring has come to the city. The terraces of the Plaza Mayor are full of people enjoying the sun and tourists wander the streets cameras at the ready. If you are thinking of joining the tourists in the Spanish capital, then today’s article is of special interest to you.
It’s Friday and we want to recommend not just one apartment in Madrid but a whole apartment building. That way you can choose which one best suits you, you can even book several of them if you are travelling with family or friends but want a place to escape your in-laws or that couple who don’t stop telling stories after a few gin and tonics.
The Olavide apartments are in the Chamberí neighbourhood, a safe residential area close to the university but far from the hectic centre of Madrid. In Chamberí there are a lot of cultural activities and many different types of mansions and historic buildings, nerromantic, modernist, gothic and neomudejar…
It is a pleasant neighbourhood that is well connected with the rest of the city thanks to various metro and bus stops. A curiosity of the neighbourhood, if you are interested, is under the streets of Chamberí can be found what was known as the “ghost station” of the Madrid Metro. Today it is the Museo Andén 0.
The Olavide, are 16 brand new apartments in a completely refurbished building and finished with the latest technology. There are 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments all immaculately decorated following the latest trends. French style wooden furniture, pastel toned walls, fully equipped kitchens, walk –in wardrobes, elegant bathrooms, internet connection, Smart TV, air conditioning, heating, dishwasher…
They say a picture paints a thousand words so we will leave you with some photos of these apartments in Madrid.
