Hotel Corona de Castilla Burgos
Between the cathedral and museum, both a short walk
About this hotel
Hotel Corona de Castilla sits almost exactly between Burgos' two headline sights, five hundred metres from both the cathedral and the Museum of Human Evolution, and just two hundred metres from the Burgos Archaeological Museum for anyone building a fuller museum day out of the visit. Rooms keep wooden floors and air conditioning throughout, with a private bathroom and hairdryer as standard rather than an upgrade reserved for pricier categories. The hotel's own restaurant serves traditional Burgos cuisine, a rarer find than the international menus more common closer to the tourist-heavy cathedral square, and the historic centre along with the bus station both sit a five-minute walk from the front door for onward travel toward the wider province.

Our take
The hotel suits travellers who want equal, short walking distance to both of Burgos' main attractions rather than favouring one over the other, and the traditional Burgos cuisine on site is a genuine draw for food-focused visitors staying more than a single night. Anyone wanting a room directly on the cathedral square itself, rather than a short walk from it, should look further into the old town instead of this dual-landmark position.
- ✓Split your sightseeing evenly between the cathedral and the museum, this hotel sits almost exactly halfway between the two landmarks.
- ✓Try the restaurant's traditional Burgos cuisine at least once, it is a more authentic menu than most hotels closer to the cathedral square.
- ✓Use the five-minute walk to the bus station for day trips, the historic centre is equally close in the opposite direction.
Why we love it
- Five hundred metres from both cathedral and museum

Why guests love itHotel Corona de Castilla Burgos sits about 500 metres from both Burgos Cathedral and the Museum of Human Evolution, which makes it easy to split a family day between the two on foot. The varied buffet breakfast helps with fussy eaters, the café covers snacks, and the restaurant serves traditional Burgos cuisine in the evening. Rooms are elegant with wooden floors, satellite TV and free Wi-Fi. I would choose it for location and food.
