Hotel Burgos dengan Gim

My partner and I are staying at Hotel Rice Reyes Católico in a group booking as part of an arts festival in beautiful Burgos, Spain. We have been in Burgos 17 times (but who’s counting?), so we know the town and the hotels. When we arrived at the hotel and went to our room, it was stuffy. We turned on the air conditioning, but nothing happened. No cool air came out of the vents. We left, had dinner, and returned around 11 p.m. Still no air. We asked the night desk clerk about the AC. He said, “Do you have a fan?” We said that we didn’t, but when we entered our room, we saw that a fan had been brought to the room. This fan was our air conditioning. In Spain. In July. On day four of our stay, the fan is still our AC, despite repeated requests to the front disk to have the AC fixed. The response is always, “We hope that the AC will be fixed today.” Hopes and prayers, y’all. Our room, upgraded from a basic domicile, is barely large enough for two people and their luggage. The closet space is minimal, and you can’t hang a suit jacket without it touching the.bottom of the closet. This is a dorm room or a youth hostel, not a hotel. Furthermore, our upgraded room is on the back of the hotel, with a view of a concrete wall. Charming… And then there’s the smell of sewerage that permeates not only our room, but the rooms of our colleagues. Funky and nasty, to say the least. The breakfasts are barely adequate. The soggy tortilla, the most typical dish in Spain, is inedible. Really? If you are planning to visit Burgos, one of the preeminent smaller towns in Spain, with the most impressive cathedral in the country, please do yourself a favor and don’t stay at this sinkhole of a hotel. There are plenty of better affordable options. The hotel has the nerve to call itself a four-star operation. It’s a two-star hotel at best, and given our experience, it’s actually a one-star establishment. Avoid at all costs.

We arrived here on a tour. One lift to get about 40 people to their rooms. Ended up carrying my suitcase three flights instead of waiting. The room was clean and cosy, large single beds and very quiet. USB plugs in the power points beside the bed were an added bonus. The Bathroom VERY small but the water pressure for the shower was fantastic! Very close to the Cathedral, approx 5-10 minutes depending on how fast you walk. My only gripe was that the bar opened at 8.30pm and I was looking for my nightly G&T at 6pm! Breakfast area way too crowded. The toaster takes an age to cook. One coffee machine for such large numbers is too little. Breakfast satisfactory but nothing startling. Would recommend.

Es la segunda vez que fui con mi mujer de vacaciones allí, la amabilidad de las trabajadoras muy bueno, el único problema fue que llegamos el viernes a mediodía, decidimos bajar a comer al restaurante del hotel, pedimos para comer dos cachopos y cuál fue nuestra sorpresa, primeramente ambos cachopos estaban sin hacer por dentro, lo que viene siendo crudos, aparte de que me tiré 2 días malo del estómago por ellos cuando fuimos a pagar quisieron meternos 6 euros más de algo que no habíamos pedido pero esque cuando vamos a pagar los cachopos en la carga de internet y en la just eat está enn14.90 y a nosotros nos cobraron 19 euros porque tenían otra carta en la que decían que los precios habían cambiado, si en algún momento tenemos que ir iremos por el servicio de recepción pero jamás volveremos a comer en el restaurante de dicho hotel.
