Travel from Granada to Barcelona

I've read with interest about transportation from Madrid to Granada, bus versus train versus flying. Has anyone taken the train or the bus? We were thinking about sleeping on the train?
Any suggestions? Thanking you in advance,
Cynthia

Hi Cynthia

We took the train from Granada to Madrid and it was a 4.5 hr ride but enjoyed seeing the countryside. The airport in Madrid is a 35minute taxi ride from the centre of the city and you then have the time checking in -waiting for your flight and then when you reach Granada it is a long taxi ride into Granada - E35 is what it cost us when we dropped our car at the airport.
Definitely train is easier. Maybe not cheaper based on other posts regarding cheap airfares in Spain but certainly not as time consuming.
