Travel to the city of León, located in Northwest Spain, and stay at one of the best hotels in the region, the NH Collection León Plaza Mayor hotel. As its name suggests, this hotel is located on the city’s central Plaza Mayor, just a few meters from all of the most popular tourist locations and the main areas for restaurants, tapas bars, and shops.
The NH Collection León Plaza Mayor hotel was constructed in a former 18th-century nobleman's building, with a historical façade from this period despite its more modern interior. This combination of styles makes this hotel in León unique, and allows it to be a part of the city’s historical atmosphere without sacrificing modern comforts. Most of the rooms at the hotel have views of León’s Playa Mayor, a place full of history located very close to the city’s Gothic Cathedral. At the hotel, you’ll also find an elegant and up-to-date hotel restaurant specializing in Mediterranean and Spanish cuisine, which is perfect for tasting the local gastronomy. As León is an important part of the Camino de Santiago or “The Way of Saint James”, many of the pilgrims who travel this route stay at our hotel to rest in the comfort they deserve after days of walking.
From this hotel, you can easily access León’s tourist sites such as the León Cathedral, which dates back to the 13th Century and is built in Gothic style with French influences. The most remarkable aspect of this cathedral are its imposing stained-glass windows, which bathe the interior of the building in light and color.
Other places to visit in León include the Casa Botines, a neo-Gothic-style building found near the Guzmanes Palace, which stands out because it is one of the few buildings designed by Gaudí outside of Catalonia. If you want to enjoy some of the area’s typical cuisine, in León you’ll find many bars and restaurants in the so-called Barrio Húmedo or “Wet District”, which includes the routes from both the Plaza Mayor and the Plaza de San Martín.
If you want your stay in León to be the best, trust NH Hotels and stay at the NH Collection León Plaza Mayor hotel which, as a result of its unique location and the amenities on offer, is the best place to discover this wonderful destination in Spain.
