Recommendations – Madrid

How to get to the clinic

The location of the Instituto Médico del Prado in Madrid is unbeatable. Situated right in the heart of the capital, within the exclusive Jerónimos neighborhood (Retiro district), our clinic is just a ten-minute walk from the Madrid-Puerta de Atocha-Almudena Grandes train station. Therefore, if you are traveling from anywhere else in Spain, one of the best recommendations for reaching Madrid is taking the high-speed train (AVE).

If you land at Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport, the fastest and most comfortable option to reach our hair transplant clinic is an official taxi (which offers a fixed rate to the city center) or ride-hailing VTC services operating in the capital, such as Uber, Cabify, or Bolt. Additionally, there is an Airport Express bus (Line 203) that directly connects the terminals with both Atocha and Plaza de Cibeles, two stops located very close to our facilities. Another more budget-friendly public transport option from the airport is the Madrid Metro network or the Cercanías commuter train to Atocha or Recoletos.

To get around from anywhere else in the city, you can use any of the options mentioned above, as well as the extensive EMT city bus network. We recommend using Google Maps to plan your route from your starting point to our clinic on Calle Moreto and find the optimal way in real time.

The Jerónimos neighborhood

The Jerónimos neighborhood is one of the most prestigious residential enclaves in Madrid, renowned for its stately charm and proximity to the city’s most iconic landmarks. The axis formed by the Paseo del Prado and Buen Retiro has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site under the name Landscape of Light. Bordered by the famous El Retiro Park, this district offers a serene and distinguished atmosphere where strolling along tree-lined streets allows visitors to enjoy the finest classic Madrid architecture alongside historic buildings such as the church of San Jerónimo el Real, the Royal Spanish Academy (RAE), and the Prado Museum.

Staying in this area perfectly combines elegance, privacy, and comfort for our patients. Its welcoming cafés, terraces, and fine dining restaurants provide the opportunity to enjoy the best local and international cuisine in a relaxed setting. Furthermore, the presence of art galleries, embassies, and select boutiques, combined with excellent transport links to the rest of the city, makes Los Jerónimos a safe and distinguished urban environment.

In terms of leisure and relaxation, the neighborhood offers direct access to El Retiro Park, the main green lung in central Madrid, where you can enjoy peaceful outdoor walks by the Grand Pond or the Crystal Palace in a quiet, natural setting. With its unique blend of history, culture, and green spaces, the Jerónimos neighborhood is a true gem in the heart of Madrid and the ideal setting for your medical stay.

Recommended restaurants

One of the greatest attractions of Madrid is the vast and diverse culinary scene it offers its visitors. The Spanish capital has established itself as a global gastronomic benchmark where traditional local recipes and avant-garde fine dining coexist in harmony. During your stay, you can enjoy everything from iconic dishes and classic tapas in century-old taverns to signature cuisine in restaurants awarded with Michelin Stars and Repsol Suns.

World-renowned chefs gather in the city to offer dining experiences suited to every palate. Very close to our clinic in the Jerónimos neighborhood, as well as in neighboring areas such as the surroundings of El Retiro Park (Ibiza and Menéndez Pelayo), the exclusive Salamanca district, or the historic Literary Quarter (Barrio de las Letras), you will find an extraordinary concentration of traditional roast houses, seafood restaurants, bistros, and gourmet markets like the famous San Miguel Market.

What to see in Madrid

The cultural, scenic, and leisure offering in Madrid is among the most complete and vibrant in Europe. During your visit, you can stroll through neighborhoods full of character such as the historic Madrid de los Austrias, bohemian Malasaña, Chueca, or the Golden Mile in the Salamanca district, as well as admire iconic landmarks like Puerta del Sol, Plaza Mayor, Puerta de Alcalá, El Retiro Park, or the stunning sunsets at the Templo de Debod.

In the cultural realm, three world-renowned art galleries stand out above the rest along the famous Art Walk (Paseo del Arte), located just a few meters apart and right next to our clinic: the Prado Museum, Reina Sofía, and Thyssen-Bornemisza. Inside their galleries, you can admire universal masterpieces by Goya, Velázquez, Picasso, Dalí, Miró, El Greco, Dürer, Caravaggio, Manet, Francis Bacon, and Rubens, among many others.

Meanwhile, every true lover of musicals, theater, and shopping must visit the famous Gran Vía, where major classics from cinema are adapted into stage performances across the dozens of historic theaters in the capital. Known as the Broadway of Madrid, this central avenue is the main hub for major international productions year-round.

For those interested in history, a visit to the Royal Palace is a must. It serves as the official residence of the Spanish monarchy and is a magnificent example of Baroque architecture, where visitors can explore its state rooms, the Royal Armory, and enjoy the impressive Sabatini Gardens and Campo del Moro.

On the sporting front, two of the world’s major football clubs play their matches in our city. Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid have their stadiums in the districts of Chamartín and San Blas-Canillejas, respectively. Watching one of their matches, whether in domestic or European competition, can be a major highlight of the week, as is taking the official tour of their home stadiums, the renovated Santiago Bernabéu and the modern Metropolitano Stadium.

Finally, if you have extra days in the country before your procedure at our hair transplant clinic, don’t just stay in Madrid. Less than an hour away from the Spanish capital by high-speed train, there are several historic UNESCO World Heritage cities that are well worth visiting, such as Toledo, Segovia, Aranjuez, Alcalá de Henares, Cuenca, or Ávila.
