Spanish courses in Madrid

Madrid, the capital of Spain, is a dynamic, modern city with a population of around 4 million. Full of charm and contrasts, the city’s architecture is a harmonious blend of the old and the new. Madrid also has plenty to keep you entertained at all hours of the day and night: shopping on the Gran Vía (Madrid’s main thoroughfare), Real Madrid football matches, the Rastro flea market, concerts, discos, exhibitions, tapas bars, etc. All these activities make Madrid a lively, bustling city where it’s impossible to get bored.

Enforex Madrid is located in the heart of the city, just a 5-minute walk from the university and Plaza de España. The school is surrounded by the San Bernardo and Argüelles metro stops and is served by no less than 9 bus lines. It is a 10-minute walk from Malasaña, a lively and festive district with many restaurants, bars, cafés and nightclubs. The school has recently been refurbished and is fully equipped to ensure maximum student comfort.
