“Nice hotel at the city centre”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 August 2011
1
person found this review helpful

The hotel is located in a very good place and is next to El Corte Inglés Department Store. Breakfast was pretty expensive and the Hotel Parking position was a hell to find. The room was clean and cleaning ladies very eager to clean as well.
If you do not expect something more than a place to sleep at night then go for it.

“Okay hotel - wifi was bad”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011

Good location for both center and train/bus station. Taxi ride to airport about 20 Euro with tip. Some decent restaurants and bars nearby that were not flooded with tourists.

Rooms were clean and staff was friendly and spoke English well.

Complaints:
Wifi would not allow any downloading of e-mails via wireless (ipad/iphone). No problems anywhere else - they used "Kubi" network which requires a 24 hour activation password. Hotel provides but only gets to internet. I think this second layer of security caused some sort of problem with e-mail. Staff in denial on this point. Laptop plugged into network via cable provided worked fine but my wife who had been working the entire trip from her iPad had to go elsewhere to do e-mail.

Corner room NOISY if window open. If Window closed, HOT! A/C seemed to have been disabled.

If you are in Leon on Sunday, EVERYTHING except cafes and a few tourist shops on street to Cathedral is shut down.

“Good hotel not far from the center of the city”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 May 2011

The hotel is located some 10 minutes from the old town, 15 to the cathedral. We had a room with the view to the street intersection but actually was quite. Corte Ingles is in front of the hotel as a park. Tha staff was helpfull.

“comfotable, good location, comprehensive breakfasts”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 June 2010

Located on the edge of the old town, about 10mins walk from the cathedral. The location is a pleasant enough area, across the road from a principal Spanish department store.
The room we had was larger than average, well fitted out and modern. Free wifi available with a reasonable connection rate.
Breakfasts were buffet type, with a wide selection of foods, including fresh fruits. These were better than average.
Downsides...lifts seemed busy after breakfast, requiring waiting. Not unusual in busy hotels.
The underground car park, had a rather narrow, winding entry and exit ramp. Many vehicles had come to grief along its edges and corners. I have never seen so many paint marks. Car drivers beware!

“Good location, average hotel. No complaints.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 May 2010

I'd recommend this hotel based on its location, about 5 minutes or so from the old town, right opposite El Corte Inglés and not far from the river. The hotel doesn't have much character but it's clean, good value and the rooms are well equipped. León is a pleasant city to explore and the hotel does the job nicely as a base.
