Hotels Near Museo de la Máscara Ibérica in Leon

Last January I had the wonderful fortune of stumbling upon this place… and what an experience it was! I found Domus Oncinae after having walked 18 days from Roncesvalles. I have completed the Camino de Santiago Francés seven times in the last 15 years and I know how difficult and unlikely it is to come upon something truly original in a journey as well established as the Camino, yet the people at Domus Oncinae have managed to do so, and they have done it in a great way. The place might seem unassuming at first, after all Domus Oncinae is located in a relatively discreet and less traveled variant of the Camino, in Oncina de la Valdoncina. Once you step inside, you realize this is a very different place unlike what you might have expected. Calling it a “rural house” or “a high end albergue” or “a fancier than usual hostal” would be a disservice to Domus. In a way, it is all of those things, but the owners and the staff have made it something much greater than the sum of its parts. For those Peregrinos who -just like me- have walked long for many days, it is an oasis of silence, peace, privacy, delicious food and the BEST mattress I have ever slept on while on the Camino (trust me, I have tried about 250 beds). For those starting in León, this could be the perfect way to transition between the noise of daily life onto their pilgrimage. The rooms and overall feeling are quite minimalist, yet nothing feels sparse, enpty or lacking. It is evident that Juan Salguero and his wife Fabiola, the proprietors, have carefully chosen every single detail, you can tell nothing has been left to chance. The food was traditional and elevated, as well as abundant, and I let the owner choose for me, a decision which I do not regret at all. One of the most unique aspects is their philosophy regarding technology and sustainability. From beautiful headboards made from the old structural beams and ancient farming tools beautifully displayed as art pieces in a museum, to the convenience of usb ports and opening the door to your room using an app, their electric vehicles and solar panels, this is not only a modern accommodation, this is a socially aware vision and a solid passion. I like to think that if the late Steve Jobs had ever decided to enter the hospitality industry, this is exactly what he would have created. I have plans to stay here again in the near future and I can’t wait to strap my boots on and make Domus Oncinae, once again, an oasis in my Camino.

Stayed here for one night only, on a half board basis. Beautiful historical building with lots to see in the hotel. Room was fabulous, at the front with a balcony. Bed was enormous and very comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were great. Friendly English speaking staff. Secure parking with cover. You can drive up to the front and offload bags, before driving round the back to park.

The room is OK, clean, spacious and tidy, the bathroom and bathroom are separate, this is very like, the front desk service is very good, there is fluent English, breakfast is not eaten, I don’t know how, the door can be temporarily parked, there are many restaurants nearby, the location is very convenient

This was my least favorite of the AC hotels I stayed in during my trip in northern Spain.. It was located in a relatively unremarkable area and just overall was very dark. The one great thing about its location was across the street from the department store and their massive grocery hall in the basement. Staff opinions were mixed for me - some of the front office staff were wonderful and helpful, another in particular always seemed put off by requests for information or assistance. The room was fine, although with no view of anything in particular. Like the theme of the hotel, it just seemed gloomy. I was happy for the comfort of this hotel but not its location. I'd have to think about whether I would stay here again.

From the moment I walked in the door during my Camino, Carmen at the front desk was brilliant. My room was not ready but she made me feel at home and she has been a great help in providing information about the local area, restaurants, etc. The hotel itself is very nice with spacious rooms and a great bathroom. Just what I needed after a week on the Camino. Highly recommended.

This hotel was really good with fabulous attentive staff. Large bedroom, comfortable bed, super bathroom and very clean. Outstanding breakfast and good cafe style dinner. Ten euros taxi ride into City. Good parking. Highly recommended

the hotel is very well located, close to the Cathedral and main places to visit in Leon, but the best is the staff, very professional and kind. The rooms are nice, clean and confortable!!! Tripadvisor should reduce the requirement of 200 characters! that's too much for free!!!!!

Whenever I go to Leon, I go to Hotel Abad San Antonio. It has a very beautiful atrium next to the rooms which I love. The rooms are very large and I especially love the enourmous bathrooms. The hotel has a very modern design and is very well maintained, kudos!

Every time I stay in León, I usually stay in hotels that are more or less close to the train or bus stations, but this time, for work reasons, I had to stay ”further away.” It seemed like I was going to leave León and it turns out that it is a hotel that is behind the Cathedral: it has a cafeteria, restaurant and garage (although there is a large parking lot next door), and although it may seem that way on the map, it is not far from the main monuments of León. Everything is very clean, the staff is great and the price is very good.

Nuestra experiencia no fue mala de un inicio. Nos atendieron muy bien, nos explicaron que el ascensor por ser el edificio estructura antigua llegaba hasta medias alturas.. algo que no nos importó aún llevando carrito de niño. Era asumible por la situación y precio. Una vez descargado el equipaje e instalados en la habitación, escuchamos una música que salía de una puerta situada al lado de la puerta de nuestro baño. Cuando el vecino habló con su compañera, es como si estuviera dentro de nuestra habitación. Compartimos todo tipo de ruidos, música, conversaciones, gases... ronquidos... llamamos al teléfono de contacto para solicitar cambio de habitación, no nos lo proporcionaron saliendo en Booking disponibilidad de dos habitaciones. Nuestro hijo de 2 años no pudo qued**** dormido hasta la madrugada y nosotros, por lo que podéis leer, tampoco. Además, la luz, se colaba también por debajo y laterales de esa puerta, por lo que teníamos a mayores luz indirecta hasta que a los vecinos se les ocurrió apagarla. Yo no contraté una habitación '' compartida'', para eso hay otro tipo de hoteles.
