Was a cool place to shop away from the center. On a weekday, crowds weren't too bad & the parking…read moregarage offers 3 hours of free parking woo! I found the options for clothes and shoes excellent, stores were all very clean and organized. The food options were limited if you like to grab food while you shop. I had a small snack from Cafe & Te but other than that, I didn't see much. Overall, it's a nice mall with good options, wouldn't make a day out of it - but it was a well kept mall!

And just because I am feeling some sort of nostalgia I wanna write a review of one of my favorite…read moremalls in Madrid. (I miss my hometooown, sadface!!) Anyhow, this is thaa mall. I always go shopping here and I love it. This magnificent marble shopping center is fresh, different and beautifully built. You can find pretty much everything you are looking for and there's always some new store every time I go. You can find restaurants, cafes, huge variety of clothes/shoe stores, cinema theater and much more! It's usually very alive and crowded during winter but it can get a bit quite during the summer. I love the fact that I can find all of my favorite stores here. Outside the mall there's other stores such as Media markt, Ikea, other furniture stores and a big supermarket. It's 20/30 min away from Madrid center but totally worth the trip! STRONGLY RECOMMENDED FOR TOURISTS! You can get there by bus or by subway (which is like a 10 min walk from there). I would recommend to go by bus since it stops right outside the mall but the subway works as well! For those of you getting there by car: 3h free indoor parking or outdoor parking (unlimited free hours). The architecture is stunning, you will love it!!

I'm writing this review specifically about the Mercadona hidden in ABC Serrano (not currently…read morelisted on yelp). This is a very pleasant shopping experience, quiet, great quality product. Some products that are hard to find in Madrid - a great hummus, and great cheddar cheese are always mainstays when shopping there.

Madrid Xanadu is a mall with more than just shopping. This facility is what Americans would call a…read moresuburban shopping and entertainment center. Complete with an array of restaurants at varying price levels, this is where locals seem to go to get away from the throngs of tourists in Madrid. Mostoles is a smaller city/town south of Madrid and easily accessed from Madrid by the highway and a bus that goes directly from Príncipe Pío to the mall. Take advantage of the late hours for one section of the mall where most of the restaurants are located along with a movie theater showing the latest American movies and yes, the indoor skiing attraction. Even in the deathly hot days of summer it is reported that you can don your winter coat and snow pants and romp around on the side of a man-made mountain. It's nothing compared to the alps... Or the Adirondacks... Or even my very own Bristol Mountain... But when you're on the plains of Spain, this is the perfect place to get some winter fun in. Actually given the mild winter I've experienced, I'd welcome the opportunity to ski at any time of year. Lastly, it is worth mentioning that you can get just about anything you need at Xanadu. Shopping for a pre-paid SIM card for your cheap European phone? Check out the The Phone House. Need a higher quality Wal-Mart experience while abroad? El Corte Ingles is on site. Want to jump around on a trampoline tethered to bungee cords?....Yeah, they've got that too! It's all you could ever need or want in the style of the American Mall so you don't feel quite so far from home.

This store in the heart of Puerto del Sol in Madrid, ES is a discount brand from Zara. The apparel…read moreoffers better value and nice in trend pieces. The store layout is spacious and multiple floors. The men's section is on main floor and it's huge. The merchandise is presented nice and easy to reach. I bought a matching tshirt and shorts combo. The fabric is thick and of good quality. This outfit will be perfect for lounging on a beach or patio in summer. The checkout process in Europe is so modern. They have self checkout and regular checkout. Self checkout can use AI to scan the items you are buying. Very cool! I wish they bring this technology to Canada but unfortunately the honesty and integrity values are not the same as Spain.

Although the name has now changed to 'Lefties', the great bargains are still there. A plain black cardigan for only 4 euros and a lovely lightweight trench jacket for a bargain 16 euros! I remember seeing this in a Zara shop in the UK for £60!
