About
Elena Fortún is a public library in Retiro, Madrid, with a wide collection including manga and children's books. The building is spacious with study areas for both adults and children, though reviewers note that most interior space is taken up by central stairs, leaving limited seating and desks. The location is convenient, near Retiro Park. Visitors can obtain a free library card with a passport.
The library is generally quiet and suitable for studying. Some tables have power outlets for laptops. The computer room lacks air conditioning but is available to visitors for 60 minutes of internet access. Busyness varies by time of day, and finding a seat can be difficult during peak hours.
