    Everything went incredibly well. The bike shop where they store your luggage is even closer to the Atocha train station than the app says. And the staff at the shop are extremely friendly. We will definitely repeat when we return to Madrid.

  • Sheila 6 years ago in Mendez Alvaro Bus Station
    It was easy to find somewhere near our apartment in Madrid and very easy to book on-line. The man in the shop was pleasant and friendly and locked our cases in a back room. We left them there all day and it was very easy to pick them up that evening and then get an Uber to the airport.

Luggage storage at Méndez Álvaro Bus Station

Many travellers arrive at Mendez Alvaro with a suitcase and time to kill before a bus or a train, so it helps to know your options before you start exploring.

The transport hub connects you quickly to Atocha, the airport and central Madrid, which makes a bag-free detour feasible. Matadero Madrid is easy to reach by Metro, while the Salamanca district has no luggage facilities of its own, so sorting storage before you leave the station area is the practical option. The station, also known as Estación Sur, has official automatic luggage lockers available for passengers. These official lockers are on Floor 0, near the Metro and Cercanías entrances, escalators, and the lift. Mendez Alvaro is Spain's busiest bus station and a major intermodal hub connecting long-distance buses with Metro, Cercanías, and urban bus lines. The station is located in the Atocha neighborhood within Madrid's Arganzuela district. With Stasher, you can store bags from €1.49 a day at 10+ locations near Mendez Alvaro Bus Station.

Méndez Álvaro is located within the same transport hub as the train station, where Renfe Cercanías lines C1, C5 and C10, Madrid Metro line 6, and Iryo services all connect. A direct Cercanías C1 train also runs to Madrid-Barajas Airport Terminal T4, saving you from wrestling a suitcase through the city centre, and Atocha station is only 1.1 km away on foot.
