Overview
Imperial stretches along the river, directly adjacent to the Royal Palace and La Latina. It offers a rare mix: the charm of the old city and the modern openness of Madrid Río. It is greener and quieter than neighboring Palacio, though its hilly terrain and older building stock mean that finding apartments with elevators can sometimes be a challenge.
