Silken Gran Teatro
Next to the museum, five minutes from the old town
Su questo hotel
Silken Gran Teatro sits directly next to the Museum of Human Evolution, an unusually convenient position for a four-star hotel this close to Burgos' second major landmark after the cathedral. The old town is a five-minute walk away and the cathedral itself seven, close enough for a loop that starts at the museum and ends under the west front without needing a taxi at any point along the way. Rooms carry free Wi-Fi and plasma TVs with satellite channels, and the 24-hour reception staff can brief guests on what to see and do in the city on a tight schedule. Easy access to the A1 and A62 motorways also suits anyone arriving by car rather than train, and the restaurant's traditional Spanish menu covers most evenings without a walk back from the old town after dark.

Il nostro parere
This suits travellers building a tight city-break itinerary around the museum and the old town, and business travellers midweek will appreciate the elegant, business-friendly rooms and the reliable Wi-Fi throughout. Anyone wanting to be inside the historic centre itself rather than adjacent to it should look toward the old town's own cathedral-quarter hotels instead of this museum-side address.
- ✓Start your Burgos itinerary at the Museum of Human Evolution next door before the tour buses arrive, then walk the five minutes into the old town.
- ✓Eat at least one dinner in the hotel's own restaurant, its traditional Spanish menu saves a walk back from the old town after dark.
- ✓Ask the 24-hour reception for local tips on arrival, staff here are used to briefing first-time visitors on a tight schedule.

Perché piace agli ospitiIl Silken Gran Teatro è accanto al Museo dell'Evoluzione Umana, che metterei al primo posto in una visita a Burgos in famiglia, con la città vecchia a cinque minuti a piedi e la cattedrale a sette. Il ristorante serve cucina spagnola tradizionale, e il caffè-bar è comodo per uno spuntino quando i bambini hanno fame tra un pasto e l'altro. Le camere sono eleganti, con wifi gratuito e TV al plasma, e la reception è aperta 24 ore su 24.
