Madrid Madrid at Christmas
Posted: Thu July 2, 2009 12:36 PM UTC
We will be visiting Spain at Christmas time. We are flying into Madrid on the 24th December and have to check into our resort in Marbella on the 25th. Should we stay in Madrid or travel down to the coast. Will gas stations be open on the 25th. Any advice would be helpful. I'm thinking to stay in Madrid on the 24 and then drive on the 25th.

Thanks for reply how about on the 25th. Also will Restaurants be open on 24th and a nice church/cathedral for midnight mass. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Plus activities for children age 13 and 11 both speak spanish, parents don't.

the 24th you will find services until night, then its close for the Christmas big meal when Spanish familias get together for dinner, the 25th is close Navidad/Christmas unless you stay on expressways toll, they keep it open. Lots of traffic thus. Its better to leave on the 25th in my opinion.
