The Royal Palace of Madrid is the official residence of the Spanish Royal Family in the city of Madrid, but it is only used for state ceremonies. King Philip VI and the Royal Family do not reside in the palace, choosing instead the more modest Palace of Zarzuela on the outskirts of Madrid.
The palace is located on the Bailén Street (“Bailén Street”) in the western part of downtown Madrid, east of the Manzanares River, and is accessible from the Opera metro station. Several rooms in the palace are regularly open to the public except during state functions. An admission fee of € 11 is required. Some days it is free.
