Which neighbourhood should we choose in Madrid?
For the historic centre, Sol-Gran Vía (theatres, Plaza Mayor, vibe alive around the clock). For luxury, Salamanca (Mandarin Ritz, Rosewood Villa Magna, boutiques). For peace and museum access, the Retiro / Golden Triangle of Art (Prado, Reina Sofía, Thyssen). Avoid outer districts unless you have a specific reason — Madrid is best lived on foot in the centre.
