“Nobody goes to bed in Madrid,” said Hemingway, “until they have killed the night.” The legendary writer wasn’t wrong. This capital city sleeps not when it’s dark, and barely even when the sun comes up. The night is for neighbourhood restaurants, mesones, tapas bars and music, music, music. But when, eventually, you do want to rest your head, Cinca House from Greatness is where you’ll want to be.
This beautiful, cosmopolitan property is a refurbished luxury family house decked out in a classical, clean style in the El Viso district close to the Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid’s football stadium, and the Salamanca commercial district. But for all its central location it feels secluded and quiet, exactly what you want in a city like Madrid.
The front of the secluded townhouse
Highlights are in the space and the details: Bay windows, wooden shutters, Andalusian style tiles. Enter into the central living area via a spacious hall and find two exquisite sitting areas surrounding one window and a fully functioning fireplace.
