Accomodation

Host family
The school selects a network of host families which are of a quality which allows the students to make the most out of their stay. Having the possibility of sharing meals with the family effectively enables the students to practise the language and to immerse themselves in everyday life with greater ease and pleasure. Students stay in single rooms.

Student residence
The school provides single rooms in a student residence for students which are located approx. 20 minutes away from the school. This type of accommodation allows for independance in the city centre and for sharing common areas with other students.

Leisure

For all of the proposed activities, there is an emphasis on countless points of interest offered by the rich cultural heritage of the Spanish capital. Art lovers will be delighted with the wide choice of exhibitions and galleries that the city offers. Its political and historic situation rewards it not only the role of capital of Spain but also that of the Hispanic world. Every week, excursions outside of Madrid are organised and the school also proposes nights out to allow you to merge into the Madrid nightlife. The city has numerous clubs, theatres, concert halls, flamenco tablaos, cinemas and…Real Madrid!

WiFi is free.
