Hotel Landa Palace is located at 3 Km south of Burgos on Motorway N-I. It is in a handsomely restored castle from the 1300s with later additions. Pilgrims once stopped here en route to Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, but they wouldn't recognize the grandeur of the place today.
Decorated with tasteful antiques, the lobby sets the tone with its white marble and ornate coffered ceiling. Rooms are large and cozily inviting with antique decorations and tile floors. Marble bathrooms are state of the art with all the extras, including plush towels and tub/shower combos. Even though parts of the hotel look a little worn, the courteousness of the employees compensates.
