Hotels near Plaza Ponferrada, Leon

Last January I had the wonderful fortune of stumbling upon this place… and what an experience it was! I found Domus Oncinae after having walked 18 days from Roncesvalles. I have completed the Camino de Santiago Francés seven times in the last 15 years and I know how difficult and unlikely it is to come upon something truly original in a journey as well established as the Camino, yet the people at Domus Oncinae have managed to do so, and they have done it in a great way. The place might seem unassuming at first, after all Domus Oncinae is located in a relatively discreet and less traveled variant of the Camino, in Oncina de la Valdoncina. Once you step inside, you realize this is a very different place unlike what you might have expected. Calling it a “rural house” or “a high end albergue” or “a fancier than usual hostal” would be a disservice to Domus. In a way, it is all of those things, but the owners and the staff have made it something much greater than the sum of its parts. For those Peregrinos who -just like me- have walked long for many days, it is an oasis of silence, peace, privacy, delicious food and the BEST mattress I have ever slept on while on the Camino (trust me, I have tried about 250 beds). For those starting in León, this could be the perfect way to transition between the noise of daily life onto their pilgrimage. The rooms and overall feeling are quite minimalist, yet nothing feels sparse, enpty or lacking. It is evident that Juan Salguero and his wife Fabiola, the proprietors, have carefully chosen every single detail, you can tell nothing has been left to chance. The food was traditional and elevated, as well as abundant, and I let the owner choose for me, a decision which I do not regret at all. One of the most unique aspects is their philosophy regarding technology and sustainability. From beautiful headboards made from the old structural beams and ancient farming tools beautifully displayed as art pieces in a museum, to the convenience of usb ports and opening the door to your room using an app, their electric vehicles and solar panels, this is not only a modern accommodation, this is a socially aware vision and a solid passion. I like to think that if the late Steve Jobs had ever decided to enter the hospitality industry, this is exactly what he would have created. I have plans to stay here again in the near future and I can’t wait to strap my boots on and make Domus Oncinae, once again, an oasis in my Camino.

What a great hotel, full of history, with a not to be missed museum and ancient convent next door. The Parador is a renovation of the sixteenth-century Monastery-Hospital of San Marcos for pilgrims walking the Camino Frances, and is one of the most important monuments of the Spanish Renaissance. Our room was in the renovated part overlooking the Plaza de San Marcos. It had a spectacular view, and was quiet, spacious, charming, and luxurious. The art in the common areas is impressive as are the exposed excavations of the ancient hospital and earlier dwellings. A great place to stay for a last night of comfort if you are planning on starting your Camino in Leon. It is located right on The Way with a monument to the pilgrim right out the front door.

Very unimpressed with this AC Marriott property. Arrived on a Friday after a very hard week. Staff has been very hands off. Bathroom is outdated and below par. The worst of the worst was no food service, no room service, and basically no service on the weekends. Their restaurant is closed Fri, Sat, and Sun. Very disappointing after walking all day and expecting to enjoy a nice evening in my room. I’d pass on this property and spend your euros elsewhere. Done with Marriott in Europe after a several bad stays.

I liked the location,in less than a quarter of an hour walking you reach any point of your interest, we have a very good rest. Quality/price of the very good room(that the cathedral is viewed from the window of the room to far ... was a plus We wanted to enjoy the city and from the hotel it was easy.

The hotel is located in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre, in the

the hotel is very well located, close to the Cathedral and main places to visit in Leon, but the best is the staff, very professional and kind. The rooms are nice, clean and confortable!!! Tripadvisor should reduce the requirement of 200 characters! that's too much for free!!!!!

Overall nice hotel, ok reception, BUT the employees seemed forced to be untruthful when it came to whether or not the A/C worked. The window to one of our rooms was open upon our arrival and the so called A/C or ventilation system had to be turned on. It started, but there was no cool air. We were offered to change rooms and embarked upon a wild goose chase trying to find a cooler room on the floor below. The window in the new room was also wide open, letting in the hot outside air. The A/C did not work there either so we stayed in the original rooms. Large rooms and large bathrooms. The shower was a bit small for the size of the bathroom and the shower door in one room was very creaky. The employees tried hard, but the management was clearly lacking.
