Time Out: Madrid
You can count on Time Out for content, but navigation's a little tricky (hint: don't click on ALL CAPS entries in the nav bar). Still, features such as bullfighting, sightseeing, current events, and where to eat and stay are invaluable. Just the right amount of information; it feels friendly and helpful without overwhelming.
