Standard Spanish Accommodations: Leon

For those looking for cheap hotels in Spain, there are standard, 4-star accommodations available for as low as around $50 a night, an exceptional value, in locations of interest such as Leon. Leon welcomes “pilgrims” who come to see such sites as the stained glass windows of the Rayonnant, a gothic cathedral. San Marcos monastery, in beautiful irony, boasts ornate facades, as does the Palacio de los Guzmanes, the provincial parliament. The Basilica of San Isidoro includes Romanesque paintings as well the tombs of the Kings of Leon. Beside its more somber and dignified offerings, however, Leon also offers a time and place for levity at the Plaza del Grano and Barrio Humedo.
