Cortes is a traditional neighbourhood, situated right in the centre of Madrid, with cobbled streets full of tapas bars and restaurants. The most historic part of Cortes is often referred to as the "Barrio de las Letras" ("literary neighbourhood") due to the fact that it was, and still is, home to many of the city's writers, performers and artists.

For art enthusiasts this area is a real haven. Not only is the famous Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum located in the neighbourhood, but the Prado Museum and Reina Sofia Museum are also close by. Together they form what is known as the "Golden triangle of Art".

The Paseo del Prado, one of the city's main boulevards, runs through Cortes. It is a wide, tree-lined boulevard, perfect for jogging and cycling. Along the boulevard there are some impressive sculptured fountains including the Neptune Fountain and the Apollo Fountain.

The area shares a border with the Royal Botanic Gardens of Madrid, eight hectares of land filled with thousands of species of plants and trees. A walk through the gardens is the perfect escape from city life right on your doorstep. Furthermore, traffic is severely restricted in Cortes, creating a peaceful environment perfect for families.
