Are the discotecas fun? A lot of dancing? What to do?

Any discotecs in particular or just in general? I imagine some are better than others. They say that some of the Barcelona discotecs are just amazing while some in Valencia can be more tame in comparison. Every city has great discotecs, I'm sure. And where there are discotecs there's dancing.

It depends on the style of music you like, the kind of discotheque you like (small vs huge) and, at the end, with the people you go. Going solo can be very very boring, going with friends should always be great

I found the discos to be alright for the experience of staying out all night and meeting people, but not nearly so much fun as bars and cafes. Speaking about Madrid, they are generally expensive and can play some pretty boring music. Lots of dancing, not as much fun. Then again, we were pretty clueless about where to go, so we could have just had a lackluster experience.

I've heard (not actually been) that La Kapital in Madrid is good. It has 7 or 8 different levels with different music in it. They are apparently picky on dress code too.

I think going to a discoteca is a must, just for the experience, but I do say that bars/tapa places are much better for good conversation with friends.

I would recommend Kapital....good fun! And the different floors are awesome, cause its like 7 clubs in one. PLus the top lounge area is great. Another club in Madrid that I had lots of fun at was Joy.

What is the address of La Kapital?

What about places for teens? Are does anyone know of discotecas for teens that are actually fun? I will be leading a group of 14-16 year olds on a tour. We'll be in Madrid and Barcelona on the weekends.

Kapital
125 Atocha - Zona Arganzuela
Phone 91 420 29 06.
I think it opens at Midnight.

Can anyone point me to a good internet map of Madrid? I would like to go to La Kapital (Zona Arganzuela) after stopping at La Taperia de la Abuela Teresa (near Plaza de Mayor) but I don't know if they are near each other.
