Hi Aerocity! Thanks for joining the group!

I just visited your website and only found prices for Madrid interior, inside M-30. Can you give some prices for transport from Madrid Barajas Airport to, say, the Puerta del Sol?

Some people have sent me email asking if there is an alternative to taking their bags on the bus/metro and using taxis from the airport and I'm sure they would like to know the prices before they arrange for this route.

Thanks for this information!!

Saludos,

MadridMan

Hi Aerocity:

Need to know where do you pick up the passengers from at the airport in order to go to one of the hostels that are recommended by Madridman in Madrid?

Thanks,

Jorge

Hi Jorge!
We pick up clients with pre-reserved transfer services to Madrid at the BUS HOTEL Stop located:
In terminal 1, arrivals floor (lower floor), 50 meters to the right of gate number 2 (not crossing the street).

In case of problems finding our vehicles, please call us to 91 571 96 96 to receive instructions.
Thanks for your interest Jorge, we hope to see you soon in Madrid.

I used the airport shuttle last month in Madrid and I highly recommend it. Although I'm not sure it was aerocity. We had to be at the airport at 5:00 am and did not want to worry about finding a cab at that time. Our hostal recommended it, and they were at our front door at 4:30am on the dot. They are less expensive than a cab, with no meters, just a flat rate.

Hello Mary! Do you recall how much you paid for this service and to which hostel did they take you in Madrid, what location? It's great that it was less than a cab.

Saludos, MadridMan

Hi Madridman,

I think we paid 2100 psta for 2 people. They picked us up at Hostal Villar and took us right to our terminal. Unfortunately I cannot remember their name, but Hostal Villar is who made the reservation for us. They will have the name.

It's a shame you don't remember if it was aerocity or not. That would help others who are looking for the service. Oh well. As long as you got to the airport on time-that's what's MOST important afterall. Hope you had a good time in Madrid! Let us know in the other forums as well as your thoughts of Hostal Villar in the Hostels forum. We NEED to know!!

Saludos, MaddridMan

Hi Mary and MadridMan:
I guess Mary used our service as we work for guests of Hostal Villar on a regular basis, and we are the only shuttle system in Madrid.
The rate also seems to match our rates for a party of two from that hostal and, yes it is cheaper than taxi, and often better and more reliable!
It is always nice to have positive and nice feedback of our clients. Thank you, Mary for your post! We look forward to be at your service again soon in Madrid.

Hi Mary, Madrid Man and Aeorcity!

Last week, we too took one of these hotel buses to Hotel Carlos V. We had no instructions on how to find where to catch it, but eventually did, and it was worth the 900 pts each to be taken directly to the hotel. It gives you chance to get your bearings by travelling all the way overground. And anyway, the weather was so hot, and we had a small suitcase each that struggling to find our own way to the hotel via ordinary bus and metro would have been a hassle. We also booked the bus on the way back to the airport. The fees were paid directly to the hotel.


Each bus has a different hotel name on, but I'm not sure if this necessarily corresponds with it's destination.

I don't know who runs these buses - Aerocity or not, but it sounds similar.

Would definitely recommend.

Hi Jo Anne!
Most probably, that service was not provided by Aerocity, because you paid directly to Hotel instead to the driver, and the price does not match our fare for that trip-ours would be less expensive.
Some hotels do have their own legal minibus service to the airport. Some of them charge for the ride and others offer it as a complimentary service.
Nevertheless, I suggest to book the service in advance, in order to avoid the risk of boarding a non-licensed vehicle which could lead to unexpected problems.
Be aware of some "pirate" vehicles operating without control at the airport, lacking any type of license and control.
We place at your disposal our web site www.aerocity.com and/or our toll free number 900 71 35 83 in order to make reservations in advance or from the airport in order to be sure about which vehicle to board.
Best regards.
Aerocity.

How long does it take from Puerto del Sol to the airport on a Saturday morning? We have to be at the airport at 8:30 am on the 29th. Would Aerocity please let me know at what time should I request them to pick us up from Hotel Europa?

Thanks

Madridman and all:

I used Aerocity last month from the Hostal La Plata. It's on the Gran Via about 5 minutes from Puerta del Sol. I also had an early flight and did not want to worry about getting a taxi.

Hostal La Plata reserved the shuttle for me, they were on time and it was 20 Euros for both myself and my friend. It was great and I would highly recommend the service and I would used it again.
