Madrid is a very well-developed metropolis. The streets are always busy, lots of hustle and bustle, and new skyscrapers are being built by the second, as you can see with these four new shiny buildings. Now, let’s finish cruising through the city and head to our hotel. We’re finally here. Our hotel was around 20 minutes away from the airport. Welcome to the Princessa Plaza Hotel.

We hope you enjoyed our tour of Hotel Princessa Plaza Madrid. Now, without further ado, let’s take a walk around the city. Downtown Madrid is the vibrant heart of the city, a place where history, culture, shopping, and nightife all come together. At its center is the iconic Puerto del Soul, a bustling plaza known as Kilometer Zero, where all of Spain’s roads are measured from. Just a short walk away, you’ll find the Grand Plaza Mayare, a 17th century square surrounded by charming cafes and historic architecture. The area is packed with famous landmarks like the Royal Palace, Almadena Cathedral, and the elegant Grand Villa, which is like Madrid’s version of Broadway, full of theaters, shops, and lights. Art lovers will want to head over to the Golden Triangle of Art. Homes to the Praau Rea Sophia and this and Barnameisha museums. And when it comes to food, downtown Madrid doesn’t disappoint. From traditional tapas bars and century old taverns to trendy rooftop spots with panoramic views of the city. Whether you’re exploring the narrow streets of the Austria’s district, shopping around Khalifank, or catching the sunset at the temple of Debot, downtown Madrid is where the city truly comes alive day or night. Have any of you seen the classic movie The Good Burger with Kenan and Kell? Take a look at what we found. The real life version. All right, if you’re in Madrid and need a quick burger fix, you got to hit up The Good Burger or TGB if you want to sound cool. It’s a Spanish burger chain that’s kind of like fast food but way better vibes. The burgers are juicy, the fries are crispy, and they’ve got some wild specials sometimes like truffle or kimchi toppings. Yeah, fancy stuff. The place is super chill with a cool urban look, and it won’t wreck your wallet. Okay, I know what you’re all thinking. What are Don and Ashley doing in a grocery store while on vacation? Just stay with us because this is not your average grocery store. If you’re in Madrid and looking for a grocery shopping experience that goes beyond your average supermarket, Super Mado Ela is a top choice. Think of it like a gourmet market where you can find everything from fresh, highquality produce and artisan bread to an impressive selection of wines and specialty foods. Whether you want to pick up local cheeses, premium meats, or international products, this place has it all. Plus, they offer a super convenient click and car service, so you can order your groceries online and pick them up right from your car. Perfect if you’re short on time. The prices tend to be a little higher than your regular supermarket, but with the quality and variety on offer, it’s definitely worth it for a special shopping trip or when you want something a bit extra. [Music] Okay, now that we have our groceries and snacks for later on back at the hotel, let’s take a stroll through the neighborhood of Grand Villa. Grand Villa is where Madrid truly comes alive. It’s the city’s buzzing main street that perfectly mixes oldw world charm with modern energy. Walking down Grand Villa, you’re surrounded by stunning early 20th century architecture, iconic buildings like the Edifio Capital, and non-stop shops ranging from bigname brands to unique boutiques. It’s the ultimate spot for shopping, dining, and entertainment all in one place. Whether you want to catch a dazzling musical at one of the historic theaters, grab delicious tapas at a cozy cafe, or just soak in the vibrant street life, Grand Via has got you covered. And when nightfalls, the street lights up with a spectacular vibe that makes you feel like you’re in the heart of a city that never sleeps. If you’re visiting Madrid, this is a must-sea street that perfectly captures the city’s energy and style. As we were walking around, we were treated to a show featuring the Transformers. That’s just some of the things you’ll see in the busy, never a dull moment streets of Grand Villa. [Music] Up everybody travel. We are in Madrid. As you can see, it is live. This reminds me like Time Square. See all the here. Every corner you turn is always something new. We are enjoying Madrid. We hope that you enjoy the episode as well. All right. If you’re in Madrid and you’re not walking down Grand Villa, what are you even doing? This street is the heartbeat of the city. Full of life, lights, and that classic Madrid energy. It’s where gorgeous old school architecture meets modern vibes with theaters, shops, cafes, and rooftop bars all packed into one iconic strip. You can shop your heart out, grab some killer tapas, catch a musical, or just people watch and soak it all in. Day or night, Grand Via has that big city magic. And trust me, it’s one of those places that instantly makes you feel like you’re somewhere special. It’s not just a street, it’s a whole vibe. All of that walking worked up an appetite. So, we stopped at this cool restaurant for a bite to eat called Kichiwa. If you’re in Madrid and craving some solid ramen, you got to check out Kenichi. They’ve got a couple of locations. One in Kuwink 98 and another in Preci 34. Both pretty central, super accessible. Either vibe is casual but cool. Not super fancy, but definitely clean. welcoming good energy. Okay, the sun is finally going down. Now it’s time for the growing and sexy. Let’s see what nightife Madrid has to offer. We were not only lucky to get some tickets to a flamingo show, but at Madrid’s premier venue, Tablau Flamco Torres Bergas [Music] [Music] together. Another [Applause] Another [Applause] [Music] Come on. Come on. Hallelujah. [Applause] for me. [Music] Amen. [Music] [Music] We hope you all enjoyed the Flamingo show with us as we embrace the beautiful culture in Spain. Now, let us share with you all a little bit more info about the night life here in Madrid. Madrid’s night life is on a whole different level. Seriously, this city doesn’t sleep, it dances. Whether you’re into chill rooftop cocktails, underground clubs, or wild nights that go until sunrise, Madrid has it all. Start your evening with some tapas in Vermont and Latutina. Then head over to Malisagna or Chua for buzzing bars and trendy spots that feel straight out of a movie. And when you’re ready to really turn up, hit clubs like Tiatro Capital with it seven floors of music and madness. or check out cool hidden venues around lava pas where the locals go. What makes it special is the vibe. It’s electric but never rushed. People here live for the night. You’ll meet travelers, students, artists, and locals just out to have a good time. So, if you’re in Madrid and you’re not going out, you’re doing it wrong. The night doesn’t even start until like 10 or 11 p.m. People are out having tapes and drinks in places like Laatina, then hopping between bars of Malisa or Chua, which are both super lively and packed with personality. Malisagna gives you that indie artsy bar scene. Think dive bars, retro music, cheap drinks. Chica’s more stylish with great cocktail spots and a fun inclusive vibe. Now, if you’re looking to go full send, Tatro Capital is iconic. Seven floors, each with its own music and style. It’s a total experience. Want something more underground? Head to Sala El Solar Barco for live music and DJ sets in a more intimate vibe and rooftops. Madrid has tons. Grab a sunset drink at a Zotia del Collo or Piccolo Gardos and enjoy city views before diving into the madness below. Honestly, Madrid’s night life isn’t just about drinking or clubbing. It’s about energy. People are social, open, and out to enjoy the moment. You don’t even need a plan. Just show up, walk around, and let the night happen. While we were walking around, we found this restaurant for dinner called Goss. Picture a cozy vibe, fairly casual atmosphere, decent service where you can get some pasta, pizza, salads, and all of the comfort Italian classics. But here’s a heads up, though. Because it’s popular, especially at night in central spots, you might wait a little for a table, and service can be hit or miss depending on how busy they are. And that’s it for this episode.
