There’s something for everyone in Madrid.

• Exclusive purchases
  Madrid is the capital of exclusive shopping. Here you will find large commercial spaces where you can buy the best national or international luxury brands. Take note of these recommendations! El Corte Inglés Castellana: located in the financial district of the city, it is an undisputed reference of luxury. It gathers an impressive collection of the most iconic brands and offers exclusive and personalized services. Both this center and the ones on Serrano Street and Plaza del Callao have a tax-free lounge from Global Blue where customers from outside the European Union can benefit from a very advantageous VAT refund: up to 15.7% of the amount of their purchases. Both the Serrano and Castellana centers have select gourmet dining areas and respective restaurants by chef Dabiz Muñoz, named three times in a row number one on the 'The Best Chef Awards' list. Galería Canalejas: due to its enormous elegance and the number of international luxury brands it hosts, there is no shopping place like it in Europe. Located in the heart of the city, this spectacular 15,000 square meter space occupies several historic buildings, including a former bank. In addition to its great offer of premium brands, it also has a food hall with thirty bars and restaurants of different styles and nationalities, some of them run by Michelin-starred chefs. WOW Concept: recently created as a new multi-brand store concept, it is an original 'phygital' option, that is, a mix of physical and digital. It offers a carefully selected range of brands from different nationalities, many of them born in the e-shopping environment, and others more traditional and established. In its eight floors, you will find everything: exclusive fashion, technology, leisure, dining, and even an e-gaming space. It has two stores, one on Gran Vía street and another on Serrano street.
