Questions and answers about EUREKA School of Spanish Language

  • “It is indeed true that there can be quite some noise in some accommodation. This is because EUREKA is localised in the historic centre of Madrid, so there is a lot of movement there.

    If you would like to book the quietest accommodation possible, EUREKA recommends studio accommodation. They have some studios that have a balcony to a courtyard (patio). If you would like to book this, please indicate this in the comments of your booking. These accommodations are scarce so it is important to book early.    ”
    Ángel Luis Piñuela Pérez, Director from EUREKA. SCHOOL OF SPANISH LANGUAGE - May 28, 2024
  • “We have 30 places between Shared flat A, Shared flat B and individual studios. These accommodations are offered all year round. Only when all rooms are booked, we cannot offer our accommodations.”
