Located right in the heart of Madrid on the main upscale shopping street. Very vibrant, lively and robust. Lots of cafes, bakeries, clubs, theaters, eatery choices for every occasion and price levels. Museums, live shows, boutique stores, department stores. On the weekends, it is so much crowded that sometimes one flows with the wave. City of Madrid for the tourist has a bus service FREE that stops to the major shopping areas, museums and the central train station in the city. The food (Tappas) is served freshly prepared at most of the restaurants, particularly the famous grilled Sardines and traditional irresistible pastries!
