Burgos Recommendations

Hello!
Any recommendations for Burgos for a family of four? We come in by bus from Madrid at 2pm and leave the next morning so our stay will be short. Looking for a comfortable place along the Camino. Thinking Abba Burgos Hotel

Best,

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Stayed twice in Hotel Fernan Gonzalez, not far from cathedral and all the tapas bars. First time whilst on the Camino alone, for a treat (bath!) and second time with husband who had to come from home in France to collect me from near Fromista as I had tendonitis in my hip. Over the top decoration, but friendly staff, good breakfast and clean well appointed rooms. Worth the money. 15 minute walk from the bus station.

Buen Camino
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
The last two years I have stayed at the Hotel Majon, Gran teatro 1, 7º C, Burgos, 09004. Tel +0034947208689 and email hostalmanjon@yahoo.es
I booked in advance through Booking.com as I was celebrating my birthday each time. Basic but clean and friendly and they will do laundry for you. about 10 mins walk from Cathedral and just a little to left of Camino as entering Burgos centre. I think about 30 euros per room per night.
 
My wife and I also stayed at the Majon and can recommend it. We just called from Atapuerca the night before and reserved a room. Nothing fancy, just a basic clean bed and private bath for a change from the albergues.

Stayed in Hotel Cordon last September (2013). It was clean, comfortable and the service was very good and quite pleasant. The breakfast was the traditional Spanish breakfast of cafe con leche, bread, jam and butter. The hotel is located a short walk from the Cathedral and the Paseo de Espolon and has many little nearby places to eat and have drinks. It was around 60 Euros and we felt it was well worth it.
 
I have stayed in both Hotel Norte y Londres (within a few minutes of the Cathedral) and Hotel El Cid (within a few meters of the Cathedral) on different visits. Found both to be very good, clean and comfortable, very friendly staff, can recommend both.
Buen Camino.

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
My wife and I also stayed at the Hotel Cordon and would highly recommend it. WE were there for 2 nights in 2012 and stayed there again in September 2013. Good breakfast and close to everything 1 block off the Camino and 5 minutes from the cathedral.

Hi Mandy,

I stayed in the Abba Burgos last year, it was very comfortable. We arrived early and were given our room with it's own private garden, it was great to stretch our weary legs in the sun (or shade for hubby) for the afternoon whilst drying out our clothes. A lot of rooms with either terrace or garden Lovely indoor pool to relax in as well, if you get a good price for the hotel I would recommend it. 2 minutes to the cathedral and on the camino.

The Marriot also had a pilgrims rate 65 eur in march 2013; close to cathedral and river
 
The Puerta Romeros (http://www.puertaromeros.com/) has the advantage of being at the west end of Burgos, just after the Parque Parral and not too far from the Monasterio Real de las Huelgas. It cuts out about an hour of early morning urban walking. The innkeeper and his family are very friendly and helpful.

Hi Mandy,
Just took a closer look at your picture, My wife and I walked numerous days with your clan in Sept 2012.
We went back to Burgos last year and completed our walk back to Santiago. Looks like your heading back.
Buen Camino

New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
We stayed at Northe Y Londres in 2013. Great location & clean. Only drawback was that they would not turn on the heat in the rooms until about 5 pm or so and it was very cold when we were there (think snow flurries)
