Spending the night at the airport
Spending the night at Madrid airport is not that traumatic, as several services are available 24 hours a day. While there are hotels nearby, not all passengers are willing to pay for one night when their flight leaves after midnight or early in the morning. While there are Air Rooms inside the airport, which are suites with a common living room to rest for some hours, these are payable. If you are tight on money, you better find another alternative. The most important thing is that the airport is open 24 hours a day.Where to rest?
Terminal 1 is not very comfortable nor does it have many seats, except for some coffee shops, while terminals 2, 3 and 4 have more space and benches, but not very comfortable. Some of these (especially in the boarding areas) do not have armrests and are ideal for resting on two or three of them. If you find two or three together and unoccupied, do not hesitate and grab them. By gate 17 of Terminal 4S, you can find a few reclinable chairs.Take into account that none of the terminals has areas with too much privacy and the lights usually stay on, so you best have an eye mask. If you have to sleep on the floor, have a blanket, since the place is usually cold at night. The children's playgrounds provide spaces with a bit more comfort. Another option (by paying around €30.00) is to use one of the VIP rooms. Some of them are even available 24 hours a day.
Is there a 24-hour left luggage service?
In terminals 1, 2 and 4, there are luggage storage offices, but they close at night. The Terminal 4 office is in the Arrivals Hall, in Terminal 2 it is on floor 1, and in Terminal 1 it is opposite baggage room 2.24-hour eating and drinking options
