Last updated: 30 December, 2023
Located in San Isidoro’s monastery – originally built in the 12th century but re-done in the Renaissance – this 3-star hotel opened in 2005 with ornate public rooms. Bedrooms are modern, if slightly monastic, and overlook the pretty cloister or the Roman walls.
The hotel is right on the Camino, so good for pilgrims or history lovers –and as an added bonus, guests are given a free tour of the basilica, with discounts on the tickets for the wonderful Royal Pantheon, now a museum.
The hotel offers free parking (in the pedestrian area, so be sure to ask how to get there when you book).
Surrounding area
The Real San Isidoro is in Leon city centre, yet it’s quiet because there’s the no traffic noise: the loudest sound will probably by the splashing fountain in the courtyard.
It’s a six-minute walk from the Cathedral and Casa de Los Botines, and the city’s restaurants and bars.
