lyonhibs Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Our flight from Zurich arrives on the Wednesday too late to head to Seville straight away so we're staying 1 night not far from Madrid Atocha rail station on the Wednesday then getting the train at 9am to Seville, getting in a noon. Anyone else having to stay the night before in Madrid, let me know. And/or, if you're on the 09h10 IRYO train on game day, see you there!! The Countdown is properly on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoofitharder Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 We are staying in madrid on the Wednesday. Some hotel called 8 rooms. It's meant to be close to the train station. We are on the 11-10 train on Thursday morning. It was earlier but has been put back 20mins. I can't wait. I'm 62 and it's my first trip to watch Scotland abroad.

wanderer Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 There on the Tuesday night and getting the Wednesday afternoon train to Seville (got a text the other day talking about rail works being carried out and there would be changes to my route, but from looks of the live table for my train, only adds 20 minutes to the journey). Staying in Hostal Dulcinea, which looks to be roughly half way between the train station of the heart of the city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csinclair Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 We’re in Madrid, currently in La Osita. Cracking little craft beer bar in the centre. Will say we got very confused figuring out getting out of the airport as not much seemed signposted. Went for the metro to be told it doesn’t go to atocha so had to get a shuttle bus from one terminal to another to get the train into the centre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
