Lodging So. of Madrid

We want to travel to Granada, Seville, Cordoba. Is there a central city we can stay in and do day trips?

You can stay in Sevilla, but Granada requires more than a day trip.

Try the Antiquera parador - equal distance from Cordoba and Granada and a bit farther to Seville (and closer to Ronda).

I don't think nevertooold has been to Spain yet, or any of the town you're considering, but you are well advised not to try to do Granada as a day trip, in part because touring the Alhambra at night is something you should not miss.

Seeing the major sights in Cordoba is easily done as a day trip from Sevilla, which comes aiive at night and has many attractions that would want to make you spend nights there.

I would suggest booking accommodations in both Granada and Sevilla.

You don't say whether you are using public transportation or having a car, or where you coming from or headed next.

absolutely agree. the only day trip in my book here would be cordoba from sevilla, but i would be more tempted to stay somewhere before cordoba and do it on way TO sevilla.

do not miss carmona. very nice low key town near sevilla.

and with a car i would be tempted to stay just at edge of granada with parking, and take a taxi to the alhambra.
