Spain Trip: Madrid Day walk around the Royal City

Dreaming of a Madrid adventure? ☀️🇪🇸 Here’s the scoop on my city break spent hopping between central hotels, decadent eats, and classic culture—think cozy rooms, legendary churros, and world-class art.

Top Spots to Visit in Madrid:
– Chocolatería San Ginés (Pasadizo de San Gines 5): A must for their thick, dreamy hot chocolate and fresh churros—go early for shorter lines and a real local vibe!
– San Fernando Fine Art Royal Academy (C. Alcalá, 13): Stunning Spanish masterpieces, open 10am-3pm Tuesday–Sunday (closed Mondays, public holidays). Tip: buy tickets ahead (€92) and avoid Mondays!
– Paco Roncero Restaurante (C. Alcalá, 15): Modern Spanish cuisine, try their tasting menu for an unforgettable food experience.

Where to Stay:
– Hotel Regina (C. de Alcalá, 19): Spotlessly clean, “exquisite” rooms with blackout curtains, hair straighteners, and an awesome minibar. Central, walkable for all key attractions—plus the breakfast totally slaps!
– Arenal Suites Puerta del Sol (Calle Arenal 8): Super spacious, soundproofed, and secure, with friendly staff and perfect location near Puerta del Sol for exploring by foot.

Madrid is super walkable, but for airport runs hop on the Metro (sol to Barajas) or grab a taxi—both fast options. Buses work too and are affordable.

Don’t miss:
– Breakfast at Hotel Regina: Possibly the best in Europe,
– Stay central for easy sightseeing—most spots are minutes apart.
– Security at Arenal Suites is top notch if peace of mind is key.

Madrid’s nightlife and food are legendary—grab tapas at a local bar near Gran Vía, and save room for churros anytime! ✨
