Alda Entrearcos
Two hundred metres from the cathedral, bar on site
About this hotel
Alda Entrearcos sits two hundred metres from Burgos Cathedral and only slightly further from Museo Burgos and Iglesia de San Gil, making it one of the closest budget addresses to the old town's main landmarks in the entire city. The on-site bar covers an evening drink without needing to leave the building, and Plaza Mayor sits just two hundred metres away in the other direction, keeping the entire old town loop within a few minutes on foot from the front door. Rooms stay simple, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with either bath or shower, but the one-star rating reflects modest furnishings rather than a compromised location this close to the cathedral square and its surrounding streets.

Our take
This suits budget travellers who still want to be inside the cathedral quarter rather than commuting in from the edge of town every morning, and the on-site bar adds a social touch rare at this price point. Anyone expecting boutique styling to match the central location should look toward a higher category hotel instead of this simple, budget-first address.
- ✓Book early for a weekend stay, the two-hundred-metre cathedral distance makes this one of the most requested budget rooms in the old town.
- ✓Use the on-site bar for a pre-dinner drink, it saves navigating the busier cathedral square bars during peak tourist hours.
- ✓Walk rather than drive here, the airport sits seven kilometres away and the old town has no real parking to speak of nearby.
Why we love it

Why guests love itAlda Entrearcos is a one-star hotel 200 metres from Burgos Cathedral and 400 from the Museo de Burgos, so a family can cover the old town on foot without a car. Every room has a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with either a bath or a shower; I would ask for a bath when travelling with small children. There is an on-site bar and free Wi-Fi throughout, and the 8.2 score suits a budget address.
