Nuevos Ministerios - Ríos Rosas

Stately, central, and professionally polished.

Overview

Ríos Rosas is a sophisticated area that hosts several government ministries and the Canal de Isabel II park. It feels professional and established. The northern part is dominated by Ponzano street—the city's most famous 'tardeo' (after-work drinks) destination. The tradeoff: Ponzano can be overwhelmingly crowded on Thursday and Friday nights.

Who this area is for

Best for

  • Middle-to-upper management
  • After-work socialites
  • Families using the Canal park

Less ideal for

  • Those who want to avoid 'bro' culture on party streets
  • Budget renters
