AC Hotel Burgos

Close to the heart of Burgos, this is a chain hotel with a lovely touch of class. Occupying an attractive 19th-century apartment house built at an angle, with three facades of French windows, it is filled with light.

Rooms are contemporary neutral (some look out over the river, others have views of Burgos Cathedral’s distinctive lace-like spires) with corridors overlooking the triangular lobby. There’s a casual chic lounge for cocktail sipping and breakfast, and a terrace for hanging out in front.

There’s parking spaces directly under the hotel, making it a good bet if you’re touring by car – but it’s also right next to the Camino.
