El Retiro

El Retiro

The Retiro is a more quiet and subtle residential area!

The famous El Parque del Retiro distinguishes the neighborhood and offers a few shops and restaurants in its surroundings. It’s a good place for a family because of all the greenery and tranquillity. The area of Retiro is considered pretty calm and it’s next door neighbor is Salamanca. Life in the Retiro neighborhood is traditional, laid-back and still connected to the city centre. It’s very close to the famous Museo del Prado and it has attractions such as the Palacio de Cristal and a little lake situated in the centre of the park. This is a great place to live if you want to be be right in the middle of things, live in an middle/upper-class neighborhood and still be able to escape from the city stress by going to the park anytime you want.

Retiro is great if you:

  • are a family with children.
  • like to live in a quiet neighborhood.
  • want to have nature and green surroundings.
  • have a lower budget but still want an upper class feel to it.
