Madrid, Spain

24 hours in Madrid? Don’t let that give you anxiety! There is plenty to see/do in 1 day. Although it’s not the most ideal experience, I have the perfect itinerary for you.

I stayed at Sercotel Madrid Aeropuerto because it was conveniently near the airport and not too far from the city. The front desk was very helpful in directing me where to go and how to get to places!

Public transportation is your friend here.

My top 5:

  • The Royal Palace of Madrid: Absolutely stunning.

  • Mercado de San Miguel: Infamous. Best place to walk around and find all different kinds of food. I loved it here!

  • Plaza Mayor: I loved walking around and had the best lunch here!

  • Museo Nacional Del Prado: If you love art, this is a must! A nice break from the summer heat but also the most gorgeous paintings I have ever seen.

  • Calle Gran Vía: Perfect place to walk around in and enjoy some shopping.

Food:

  • Café de Oriente - Breakfast with a view! So good.

  • El Sobrino de Botín - Infamous and a great experience. Food was delicious!
