Reasons to visit Madrid
The majestic Museo del Prado
One of the world’s leading art galleries, the Museo del Prado is home to thousands of paintings and more than 700 sculptures – including the statue of Diego Velázquez that graces the entrance.
Work by great names such as Velázquez, Goya, El Greco, Titian, Rubens and Hieronymus Bosch can be found here, giving visitors the chance to delve deep into both Spain and Europe’s creative past.
Dating back to the early part of the 19th century, the museum offers carefully selected itineraries to suit people keen on ticking off the greats, as well as tours for those wishing to stay longer in this wondrous place.
Take a tour of the Santiago Bernabeu stadium
Real Madrid’s Santiago Bernabeu stadium has been a sporting stage for some of the finest footballers of all time – from the likes of Puskas and Di Stefano in the 50s to modern legends like David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo. You might spot it from the sky on your Madrid flight.
Go behind the scenes on a tour that takes in the dressing rooms, presidential balcony, coaches’ touchline seats and, of course, the pitch itself. Real Madrid’s dazzling trophy collection is on show alongside shirts, balls, documents, photos and other items of memorabilia telling the story of this great club.
Relax in El Retiro Park
Get away from the hustle and bustle of Madrid for an hour or two and enjoy the soothing sights and sounds of El Retiro Park. An oasis of nature in the heart of the city, the park is spread across more than 125 hectares and features a fascinating array of monuments, sculptures, fountains and gardens.
Rent a rowing boat and head out on the lake, visit the Crystal Palace conservatory, take in one of El Retiro’s regular puppet shows or simply sit back and unwind with some local ‘churros con chocolate’ while watching the world go by.
Things to know before you fly to Madrid
Airport transfers
Madrid Airport is just over seven miles from the centre. Fly to Madrid and book a transfer with Etihad to arrive quickly and in comfort. Alternatively, express shuttle buses run multiple times an hour, day and night. Taxis are available outside the airport too.
Getting around
A tourist travel pass allows visitors to make unlimited trips on all types of public transport in Madrid over a set period of time – available to use over a number of days. The passes can be used on the Metro, blue city buses and commuter trains. They can be bought at all metro stations as well as ‘estancos’ – local tobacco shops.
Where to stay
The Gran Vía is the main avenue running through the heart of Madrid and a good base for people wanting to sample the city’s colourful atmosphere at close quarters. It’s also a five or 10-minute walk from a number of popular districts, including Chueca and Huertas, where you’ll find a mixture of boutique and branded hotels.
Currency
The currency in Spain is the euro (EUR). Credit cards are accepted by most major retailers and you’ll find ATMs and exchange bureaus throughout the city.
Flying to Madrid: FAQs
How many days should I spend in Madrid?
Two days will give you a tantalising flavour of Madrid’s special brand of magic, but a week or more is the ideal length of time to appreciate the city.

From Madrid, explore more of Spain: head north-east to Barcelona or south to Seville.

No stay in Madrid is complete without a visit to a tapas bar, where bite-sized snacks such as Spanish tortilla, croquettes, aged cheese, chorizo and Iberico ham combine to mouth-watering gastronomic effect. For those who want something more formal, the city boasts around 20 restaurants with a Michelin star.
