Hotel Real Colegiata San Isidoro

Top choice in León


Now here's something special. Arrayed around a medieval courtyard and an annex to the Real Colegiata de San Isidoro, this gorgeous place has contemporary rooms with soothing linen tones and stone walls. Some of the small windows overlook the cloister, and the use of motifs from the neighbouring museum's frescoes is understated but nicely done.
