Which area of Madrid to stay in??

[Darius]

Hello,

I was hoping someone can give me some advice. We are going to Madrid
for part of our honeymoon. (Actually we are going to Madrid then
Seville then Granada then Barcelona)

I have no idea about which area of Madrid to stay in. It would be nice
to stay in an area that is central to the
attractions/shopping/restaurants. Can anyone please give me some
advice....

Also, we are assuming that there is a train that runs between Granada
and Seville. Has anyone taken this train before, is the ride scenic??

Thanks in advice for any advice!

The Metro system is pretty good, and as long as you're roughly in the
center you can get everywhere of interest quickly, so I wouldn't worry
too much about exactly where you are.

Around the Puerta del sol if you want to be in the middle of everything
No sleep before 1 in the morning at least

Where is the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium located in Madrid? I'd love to see Real Madrid play as they are one of my favorite teams outside the English Premiere League. How safe is the area around the stadium and is there better areas to stay in? I've only been to Spain once and only got to see Barcelona which was great. I'd like to see Madrid and more of Spain. What hotels are good in Madrid? And is there international travel health insurance for traveling in Spain?
