Vic\u00e1lvaro offers entire apartments in a quieter residential area, with public transport connections via Metro Line 9 to Colombia, where you can change to Line 8.

Your choice of accommodation can have a direct impact on both your rest and your daily logistics. Before booking, it is worth considering the actual transport connections to IFEMA, check-in times, access to reliable Wi-Fi for work and the amount of space available for your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Staying right next to the venue may seem like the only option, but demand and prices tend to rise during major trade fairs. A well-connected residential base can offer more space and a more comfortable stay, especially when travelling as a group or staying for more than two nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to get from Vic\u00e1lvaro to IFEMA by public transport<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the Line 9 stations located in Vic\u00e1lvaro, you can travel to Colombia and change to Line 8. Feria de Madrid station has exits next to the south entrance of the exhibition centre. It is a straightforward route with just one change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IFEMA MADRID also lists connections via bus routes 73, 112 and 122, as well as taxis and road access via the M-11, M-40 and A-2. The most convenient option will depend on the event schedule, the amount of luggage and the number of travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Journey times may vary due to engineering works, service disruptions or special events. It is advisable to check the route on the day of travel using Metro de Madrid, Google Maps or the transport app preferred by the guest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Apartment or hotel: which is better for a trade fair<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An entire apartment can be particularly useful when colleagues from the same company, exhibitors, speakers or professionals who need to prepare for meetings are travelling together. Having a kitchen makes it easier to organise breakfast and dinner without always relying on restaurants; the living area provides space to review presentations, while separate bedrooms allow for better rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A hotel may be suitable for a very short stay or for solo travellers. An apartment often offers better value when the cost is shared between several people, when greater privacy is needed, or when the stay covers several days of set-up, the trade fair itself and dismantling<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which Casa Bandi apartment should you choose?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Casa Bandi Huerta offers the most space and capacity: up to 8 guests, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and approximately 90 m\u00b2. It is well suited to teams, professional groups or families travelling together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Casa Bandi Villardondiego and Casa Bandi Condesa accommodate up to 5 guests, with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and approximately 60 m\u00b2. They are practical alternatives for smaller teams or guests who prefer a more compact layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All properties offer self check-in. Standard check-in is from 4:00 pm and check-out is by 12:00 noon, subject to the conditions of each booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tips for trade fair days<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Book well in advance when IFEMA\u2019s calendar includes major conferences or international trade fairs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep your digital ticket handy, confirm your hall and check which entrance is closest.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Allow extra time: demand for the Metro, taxis and ride-hailing services increases early in the morning and when events finish.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are travelling as a team, agree on a meeting point and use a single communication channel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make use of the apartment kitchen to prepare an early breakfast or a simple dinner when you return.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ask about mid-stay cleaning if you are staying for an extended period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Direct booking for business travel<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Booking through the official Casa Bandi website gives you access to a 10% discount on the standard rate set in Lodgify, as well as direct contact with the accommodation provider. For corporate stays, teams or specific trade fair dates, you can also request a personalised quote before confirming your booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Availability, the final price, cancellation policy and included services should always be checked in the booking engine before payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is Casa Bandi next to IFEMA?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Casa Bandi is located in Vic\u00e1lvaro, not next to the exhibition centre. Its advantage is that it offers entire apartments in a residential area with a convenient Metro connection involving just one change: Line 9 to Colombia, then Line 8 to Feria de Madrid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Which Metro station serves IFEMA MADRID?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The nearest station to the exhibition centre is Feria de Madrid on Line 8, with exits by the south entrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is an apartment better than a hotel for attending a trade fair?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It depends on the type of trip. For teams, multi-day stays or guests who need a kitchen and workspace, an apartment is often more comfortable. For a one-night solo stay, a hotel may be sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can I arrive late after an event?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The apartments offer self check-in. Standard check-in starts at 4:00 pm, but guests must complete the registration process in advance and follow the access instructions provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Is there a discount for booking direct?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. Casa Bandi offers a 10% discount when booking through the official website compared with the standard rate listed in Lodgify, subject to availability and the booking conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can Casa Bandi issue an invoice?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The booking should be made using the correct company details. It is advisable to request the invoice and confirm the billing and tax information before or during your stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Coming to IFEMA MADRID?<\/strong><br>Check your dates, number of guests and available apartments.
