Hotel Silken Gran Teatro Burgos
Choose dates and guestsInformation
The Silken Gran Teatro is at Avenida del Arlanzón 8, on the south bank of the river, and keeps the facade of the former Gran Teatro de Burgos; inside everything is new and of contemporary lines. It is a four-star with parking in the building itself, a gym and a bar with a rooftop terrace, and its great asset is what you see from the exterior rooms: the river, the Museum of Human Evolution and the cathedral.
The other side of the Santa María bridge
You cross the Arlanzón by the Santa María bridge, pass under the arch and you are on the Plaza del Rey San Fernando, in front of the cathedral: about five minutes' walk. Opposite the hotel, across the river, is the Museum of Human Evolution, the gateway to Atapuerca, and a few minutes away the Palacio de Congresos and the Auditorium. The airport is about fourteen minutes away by taxi.
Five types of room
The rooms are Confort, Silken Club, Première and Terrace Room, and there is a Confort with an extra bed for a third person. All are soundproofed and decorated with nods to the old theatre. If you want views, ask for an exterior room: those facing the avenue look onto the river, the museum and the cathedral. Some allow early check-in or later check-out if you ask, and if you book on its website late check-out depends on availability.
La Tramoya, on weekdays
The restaurant La Tramoya serves market cooking with a contemporary menu and is only open Monday to Friday: lunch from 13:30 to 16:00 and dinner from 20:30 to 23:00. There is no restaurant service at weekends, so on Saturday and Sunday cross to the old town: Puerta Real, opposite the cathedral, is open on Sunday at midday.
The buffet breakfast is served every day at La Tramoya: from 7:00 to 10:30 on weekdays and from 8:00 to 11:30 at weekends and public holidays. The bar-café is open many hours and has a rooftop terrace with views over the city.
Car, gym and accessibility
The car park is in the same building, paid and subject to availability. On the sixth floor there is a small, well-equipped gym, free for guests. The hotel has the TUR4all accessible tourism label; ask about adapted rooms when you book.
Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out until 12:00.
