From Madrid to Burgos

[Hans Olav]

I will be doing the camino Frances from Burgos to SdC in may/june.
I am coming to Madrid late night, and want to stay on a hotel near the bus-station to go by bus to Burgos the next day.
Anyone who know where the bus station is located at the airport (I imagine it is huge...),
and also: Anyone who have hotel recomendation near the bus station?

Hi @Hans Olav and welcome! The bus station at the airport is at Terminal 4, which is quite a distance from the other terminals, but there are free transit buses between the terminals every ten minutes I think. It is signposted in the airport and is quick and easy. I don't know any hotels but if you find the airport website I'm sure there is info there about the hotels nearby and also how to get to the buses. Buen Camino (og god tur)!

ALSA buses leave from Madrid Intercambiador de Avenida de America to Burgos. Some of those buses make a stop at Madrid Airport T4.

You might want to find accommodation near Avenida de America.

Take EMT Madrid bus #200 from Airport to Avenida de America.

There is no pedestrian access to the Madrid airport even though there are a lot of hotels nearby that look to be walking distance. Pick a hotel near the train or subway line to the airport for its bus stop, or near the bus station downtown.

there are no hotels 'at the airport' per se. there are several near the airport with free shuttle buses from the aiport. if you are skipping madrid city, then jump on booking.com and find a deal near the hotel.

however, the city is close to teh airport (15 minutes without traffic, 20 minutes by metro or train), which is worth a walk around and there will be cheaper accommodation options. there is also a main bus station in town with easy access via the metro in case you do not want to go back out to the airport (same bus compnay ALSA, same routes).

I will arrive at Madrid airport at 2230. Do you know if the EMT Madrid bus 200 will still go so late at night?

Metro runs later ... Aena website says it runs until 0130 ... Take Madrid Metro Line 8 to Colombia and Line 9 to Avenida de America

Thanks! I understand that Avenida de America holds the bus station for the bus to Burgos?
And that there are many hotels located there?

I think the two hotels closest to the Avenida de America "Intercambiador" (that's the name of the bus station) are Abba Madrid and AC Hotel AV. De America.

Thanks for the information!

...and the NH Príncipe de Vergara and the Hotel Dormirdcine that are even a bit closer.
