MONTERREY, MEXICO / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2018 / Madrid is a city packed with history, culture and the kind of vibrant beauty that Spain is known for. From its earliest days as a river town to its transformation into Spain's illustrious capital, Madrid has remained the cultural center of Spanish activity, featuring breathtaking architecture, historical landmarks, and cobblestone streets that make it perfect for a romantic getaway, a scholarly sojourn, or a family adventure.
Madrid may be a large city with tons of streets, attractions, and museums to explore, but that doesn't mean that vacationers can't make the most of the city on a shorter trip. Even in the space of a few days, travelers can sample the best the city has to offer without feeling rushed or stressed. With Royal Holiday, members are placed in the center of the city with walking and public transportation access to some of Madrid's most unmissable sights and experiences. At Royal Holiday's Plaza Basilica apartments near the infamous Paseo de la Castellana, travelers are able to access a 360-degree experience of the bustling city from their hotel room. Once they step outside, the magic really begins.
If time is a concern, there's no need to worry. Madrid's most unmissable museums happen to be bunched together to form one central arts district. During a museum day, visitors can head to the Arts Triangle to experience the Museo del Prado, the Reina Sofía and the Thyssen-Bornemisza all in one afternoon. Some of the most famous works by Velazquez, Goya, and Bosch will be waiting at the Museo del Prado, while the Reina Sofia will give viewers up-close access to works by Dali and Picasso.
After a stroll through the Arts Triangle, visitors can head out to the nearby Sala de Despiece for a taste of its fabled steak, grilled artichoke, and ceviche offerings. As a cultural aperitif, the Templo de Debod, an Egyptian temple in Madrid's central Parque del Oeste, will hit the spot. Strolling through the park will bring travelers to the Royal Palace of Madrid, a sight akin to London's majestic Buckingham Palace. To finish off the day, head to a nearby cafe for a strong glass of a local favorite, coffee topped with brandy.
Madrid may be an incredibly walkable city, but that doesn't mean that Royal Holiday vacationers have to do everything on foot. Even on a two- or three-day vacation, members can experience the most of Madrid by heading out to the slightly more out-of-the-way enclaves like Chueca, known as the drinking district for its preponderance of bars, and to TriBall, an artsy, bohemian neighborhood full of quirky shops, cafes and the odd art gallery. For visitors who can't resist an action-packed tour of the bustling city, there's the Tartan Roof, featuring sunbathing, cocktail-sampling, and a ton of different street vendors packed into one place overlooking the majestic Calle de Alcalá.
If all that eating and drinking happen to increase a traveler's hunger for shopping, there's only one thing to do next. Barrio Salamanca is a district devoted to artisan shops, architectural wonders (like the famous Arab House) and luxury wares. For travelers who need to pack a lot of action into one day, hitting the Barrio Salamanca is the perfect way to shop, dine, and catch some last-minute sightseeing before wrapping up a shorter trip.
For 26 years, Royal Holiday has been committed to giving members a world-class vacation experience during each and every year of their membership. Part of that care involves selecting the best, most centrally-located apartments and resorts that will allow vacationers to see the most of their destination without having to spend most of their vacation moving from one place to the next. For travelers seeking to get the most out of Madrid, Royal Holiday provides an unbeatable way to experience the city like a true local.
