Getting There

Detenderete is at Calle de Santa Cruz de Marcenado 13, in Madrid's Centro district; in the Malasaña barrio. Its own site names Argüelles and San Bernardo as the nearest metro stations.

Nearby

Malasaña is where the city keeps its energy, a tight web of streets that turns over fast and stays up late. The eating is young and restless, with vegan kitchens, coffee bars and creative rooms wedged between places that have not changed in decades. It runs down to Gran Vía, and it rewards walking without a plan.
