i am going to madrid on the train from seville on wednesday and coming back thursday morning is the a secure car park either at or near the station and how much will it be to leave a car there for 26 hours

There is a good secure underground car park with a ticket machine and barrier behind the hotel Occidental, which is just accross the road from the station. I used it when we stayed at the hotel for a couple of nights. Sorry I can't remember the cost, but it wasn't expensive, otherwise I'm sure I would remember

The train station has its own secure car parks on site.

Are you going AVE? Did you buy preferencial seats? If so your parking is free.

bought seats over the internet in january they are for the AVE but dont know if they are preferencial i should think they are 2nd class as only 60 euros return, i would be surprised if we got free parking for that price

That's a good price! Did you get them directly from the website?

mark donna

yes they had special offers on in january the differance in price was amazing so i just hope ive bought the right tickets, its a similar system to airlines were you print your own tickets and seen as there all in spanish im hoping that i have the right ones

I'm sure you have. I always worry whether I've got the right ticket when I get a good deal. I've just come across an article that says you can get up to 60% off AVE ticket prices; I'm thinking a couple of days in Madrid is in order!

Btw, if you've got any queries on the language side of things, just ask on here, one of us will come along and help, I'm sure.
