Car Rental at Madrid Airport (MAD): Driving and Parking in Madrid
Driving in central Madrid can be interesting to say the least, with much of the city's traffic gridlocked during peak hours in the early morning and late afternoon. Between the hours of 14:00 to 16:00, the streets around the city centre tend to be particularly quiet. Three main ring roads surround the city of Madrid, the M30, the M40 and the M50, allowing you to quickly reach many neighbouring towns and cities with relative ease.

Parking in the city can be problematic at times, with permits required to park on the street. However, parking lots are available and clearly indicated with blue 'P' signs. Many of the city's main hotels and shopping centres also boast parking areas.

Madrid is one of the most popular cities in the whole of Spain and therefore booking your car rental prior to arrival at Madrid Airport is always a good idea. In order to rent a car in Madrid, you must be 21 years old or more and bring either a full driving licence or International Driving Permit. Most cars in the city are left-hand drive and must always be driven on the right-hand side.
