Get directions→Getting There
It is on Calle del Casino, 16, in Lavapies, part of the Centro district and one of the most multicultural corners of Madrid.
Nearby
Lavapiés is a steeply layered corner of central Madrid, a tight grid of narrow streets where the cooking comes from everywhere at once. The rooms are small, the prices are honest, and the good ones fill with regulars rather than reservations. Museo Reina Sofía and CaixaForum Madrid sit uphill from it, El Rastro at the bottom.
