Lisbon-Madrid Night TrainPage 2
ABOVE: A First Class or "Preferente Clase" cabin with upper and lower berths. AccommodationsThe Lusitánia Comboio Trenhotel has several types of accommodations, including: Second-class seats. These are popular with holders of Eurail and InterRail youth passes, who pay only a few euros for a seat reservation. If you crave sleep, you may need earplugs: passengers often bring guitars and sing or socialize well into the night. First-class seats. For a modest reservation fee, holders of a first-class Eurail or InterRail pass can settle back in a reclining seat and pretend they're on an airliner. Tourist. In this type of accommodation second-class passengers share four-berth compartments with washbasins that are segregated by sex.
Luxury-class single or double. I saw one of these cabins but wasn't lucky enough to sleep in it. (There are only five on each train.) "Gran Clase" staterooms cost about 44 percent more than first-class cabins, but they have private sinks, showers, and WCs, and the reservation fee includes dinner with wine and breakfast.
