School Description

The new Don Quijote Spanish school in Madrid opened in spring of 2008 and is located in Calle Duque de Liria 6, in the heart of the city’s lively and smart Argüelles District. The school is situated next to the Liria Palace, the Madrid residence of the Duchess of Alba and a beloved green island in the heart of Spain’s capital city. On foot, the school is just 5 minutes from the Plaza de España and the Gran Vía, a bustling commercial street often called “Spain’s Broadway” for the abundance of theaters and performance venues lining its sidewalks. As foreign students learn Spanish in Madrid with this quality language school, they will also be a pleasant 5 minute walk from the Plaza de Oriente, home to the Royal Palace and the Royal Theater, as well as an easy stroll from the city’s famous Plaza de Cibeles and the world-renowned Prado museum.

School building / location

The school is located on several major public bus lines, and has a metro station right across the street that provides easy and instant access to the rest of the city. Best of all, Don Quijote new Spanish school shares a building with our Madrid student residence, meaning that going to class is now as easy as waking up and hopping an elevator to your classroom!

The Madrid school facilities, housed in the lower 3 floors of a historic building, are spread throughout 1,800 square meters. The building was recently renovated to provide students with the most modern amenities, yet it still retains the charm of its typical Madrileño architecture. Thirty-eight bright and airy classrooms fill 1,300 square meters of the school building. The school also offers 500 square meters of common areas, including a comfortable seating area where you can relax between classes or chat with friends while enjoying a drink or snack from the school’s many vending machines.
