Madrid’s nightlife is great too. The districts of Malasaña and Latina are the liveliest in the city and you can feel a great vibe that will go on until the early hours of the morning. When most clubs close in northern Europe is when the party really starts in Madrid. Nationality lichés go out the window here and while you may get a joke or two about where you’re from at first, you’ll soon feel part of the city and its people, since their friendliness is because Madrid is not a place where tourism is overwhelming for the locals, unlike other cities in Spain.
