Not able to reserve overnight train tics from Barcelona to Andalucia!
Hi, I want to reserve ahead a first class sleeper frm Barcelona to any part of andalucia. But the official site does not take reservation for overnight trips. I don't want to arrive and buy tics. Too risky. I want to know ahead you know. Any suggestions? Call them? Other leads?

Hi I had a similar promblem last year buying train hotel tickets from Madrid to Paris. Finally, I called talked to the information and what I was able to do, was for them to hold me the tickets for 72 hs. precisely ( or may be it was 48 hs.) I bought them at Barajas Airport at a Renfe office.
No big deal but at least I flew knowing I had the tickets waiting for us.

There's an all-Preferente all-sleeper (2-person compartments) overnight Talgo Barcelona - Sevilla that departs BCN at about 22:30 (arr. Sevilla 08:20). I don't know how much time you are planning to spend in Barcelona, but I bought my tix/reservation Thursday at the Renfe Office in Santander for Sunday night's Barcelona-Sevilla train.
As to whether they'll take reservations by phone: If they do, you have to be 'ticketed' a certain number of hours before departure.
BTW
That all-Preferente Talgo was quiet and comfortable.
