Cerro del Tío Pío, located in Vallecas, is known as the place with the best views of Madrid, especially if you combine it with  the sunset/dawn and a mini picnic.In case you're wondering, the name "siete tetas" or "seven boobs" comes from the seven elevations in it.

9. Quinta de los Molinos

There is no better way to welcome spring than by visiting the blossoming almond trees at Quinta de los Molinos.The two weeks of flowering vary from year to year depending on the weather, but they tend to be around January and February, so watch out for the news on those dates!

A classic. If you haven't rented one of the boats at Retiro, have you really been to Madrid? Nothing represents Madrid's lifestyle better than enjoying the sun in a relaxing boat ride ;)

corte ingles callao

14. Corte Inglés in Callao

In the heart of Callao, El Corte Inglés has a terrace on its ninth floor. Unforgettable views of Gran Vía.The terrace is a cheaper option, because you do not need to pay to enjoy the views, although it also has goof food and drinks.

15. Edificio España (Hotel Riu)

We are sure that the rooftop is the most visited spot in the last few months and the panoramic is simply incomparable. There is no known rival for these views over Casa de Campo, Gran Vía and all the roofs in downtown but did you know what you see at the foot of the building it is the new Plaza de España?

Here on a previous blog entry of Bastardo we already talked about the details of the renewed area but the best perspective you will ever get will be from hotel RIU’s rooftop.

16. Streets: Malasaña y Chueca

The streets of the centre reflect the history and madrilenian lifestyle, and are the perfect place for a photo shoot. You don't need anything else. So we encourage you to explore and wander around until you find a street that inspires you. But if you're going to get in the middle of the street, watch out for cars, please.

Dopamine Land Bastardo hostel Madrid

20. Dopamine Land

Lose yourself in the place, interact, feel the joy Dopamine Land transmits and your body feels. The most difficult thing it that ALL THIS has to be seen through the pictures you are showing on social media. It is an unmissing experience you have to share!

Sweet space Bastardo Hostel

21. Sweet space

It is an experiential museum through different themed rooms. It might has nothing to do with Dopamine Land except for the tons of pictures you can (and have to) take here too.

Show your sweetest side. It is for everybody!

Museo de las ilusiones Bastardo Hostel

22. Museum of illusions

This tour covers different rooms all equally surprising and captivating. You will question everything appearing right before your eyes so you’d better capture it. It will be hard to believe otherwise….

As a museum it doesn’t miss its educational purpose. Go to learn, to explore, to experiment, to doubt, to understand and to lose your mind too. Charge your phone battery on full!

Restaurente Bloom Bastardo Hostel

23. Restaurante Bloom

We change the subject because it is not a place for interaction and experience as such; However, it is probably the restaurant with the most spectacular entrance in the whole city,

Bloom is intimate, delicate, surprising, carefor and with all this attention and detail every moment taken will turn out perfect.

Alternativx Bastardo Hostel

24. Alternativx

It is an art and clothing shop “Made in Spain”, no gender, plenty of creativity, authenticity and principles. All these take place in Conde Duque, a charming neighbourhood in downtown. Visit them, they have a lot to share (and not just through the fashion).

The experience can be booked on the webiste.

25. Aseo del Canopy by Hilton Madrid Castellana

We totally surrender ourselves to the charms of this place.
Pictures taken in the toilet, posing in front of the mirror, are a classic, right? Well, in this restroom you won't picture yourself like that but on the couch instead, with a flaming red background and the neon sign quote "Madrid me mata" (meaning "Madrid kills me").

lavanderia bastardo

Bastardo's laundry

Bastardo's laundry is not only because it's ours, but it's a really cool place. The mix of retro with neon lights creates a perfect combination to get many likes.
