Hotel Forum Evolución — Hotel in Burgos

I loved just about everything about this hotel except the wifi which was nothing short of appalling and unacceptable in this age. It was as slow as dial up and so bad that some standard websites would not open. That aside this is a super hotel and extremely reasonably priced.

Parking is available at extra charge, but as this is secure and 24 hour manned, it is worth the cost. We booked here for our return trip as we were so impressed and returned to the same excellent...

Thankfully the Hotel Forum Evolucion is situated right behind the monumental Forum housing the brilliant Museo de la Evolucion Humana on the south side of Burgos, otherwise the modest entry to this city hotel would be a little hard to find. Drop your bags off outside the door and park in the Forum underground carpark. Rooms are somewhere between functional and minimalist, but clean and comfortable (nice wide single beds). Breakfast is not expensive and benefits from the proximity of the coffee-bar adjacent to the hotel. Five minutes walk across the bridge and you are in town, with all the restaurants Burgos...
