Hotel Silken Gran Teatro Burgos

This was an overnight stay while driving around northern Spain. Check-in was quick and easy. There’s a set down area near the hotel’s front entrance. As it was a quick stop for us, we only booked a basic room. Clean and comfortable. While some might find the room size a bit tight initially, if you open your luggage and slide the bags under the bed you can easily move around the room. Our room faced the internal courtyard. While the window could be opened, there wasn’t really a lot of fresh air moving through the room. Also, despite changing settings on the air-con system there was little to no meaningful effect. There is parking under the hotel. The entrance is just to the left of the hotel entrance. Please be warned that access is very tight!! Our rental car was a late model Citroen C4 (a medium sized SUV). Even with all the warning sounds and reverse camera, it still took a while to park the vehicle. If you take care, you’ll be fine. Breakfast was varied and of good quality. The hotel is situated about 10-15mins level walk to the sights of the old town.

Reliable and comfortable hotel in downtown Burgos. Good service and conveniently located within short distance of key local amenities (walking distance to the historic core, the cathedral or the museum of evolution across the river). Nice option for a short stay in Burgos.

The stay was okay but I have to mention multiple downsides. CONS: - the parking is expensive (16.50€ per night), there is no surveillance and the path leading downstairs is very narrow. The walls show marks from different cars. - I had to request a room change twice. The first room was already occupied by another person. The second room had a bathtub full of body hair. The third room was finally ok. I have wasted 40 minutes before finally getting my room and I have received no compensation offer, only the apologies of the receptionist - room walls must have been fairly thin since I could hear everything happening outside and in the adjacent rooms PROS: - staff is friendly and polite - restaurant dinner was tasty except for dessert, below average - breakfast was good and presented a good number of options - location is good, basically in the city centre
