Cheap Hotels in Segovia: My Secret Spot for €35/Night (No Tourist Trap!)
I'll never forget my first trip to Segovia, rushing to book a "central" hotel near the Alcázar only to find myself in a noisy, overpriced room steps from the Plaza Mayor. The real magic? Staying 10 minutes away in the real Segovia. After 15 years running travel tours from Madrid, I've found the perfect cheap hotels—no tourist scams, just authentic charm and unbeatable value.
Where to Stay: Cheap Hotels Under €50/Double
Forget the Plaza Mayor—Segovia’s best cheap hotels are in the old town but not on the main square. You’ll save money, avoid crowds, and wake up to the sound of church bells instead of tour groups. Here are my top picks (all bookable via Booking.com for best rates):
- Hostal de los Reyes: €35-€45/night (double). A 7-minute walk from the Alcázar, in a quiet street with a tiny garden. Owned by a local family—ask for their free "Segovia Secrets" map (includes hidden tapas bars!). Avoids the tourist price hike of center hotels.
- Hotel La Casona: €40-€55/night (double). Near the Roman Aqueduct, but steps from the bus station (great for early arrivals). The breakfast includes homemade churros—I’ve been coming here since 2010!
- Pro tip for budget travelers: Book a room with a balcony—most cheap hotels have them. You’ll sip coffee watching the sunset over the mountains for free (no extra cost!).
Insider Tips for Saving More
My friends in Segovia tell me: "Don’t rent a car for the city—park outside and walk." I agree. For airport transfers from Madrid (Barajas), take the Cercanías train (€4.50, 45 mins) from Atocha station. Book tickets 3 days ahead on Renfe’s site for the lowest fare. Never take the taxi from the airport—costs €45+!
For activity tickets, skip the Alcázar line. Buy online at alcazardesegovia.es for €9 (not €12 at the gate). I always add the guided tour (€15) to learn about the medieval legends—worth every euro.
Why These Hotels Beat the "Cheap" Options
Many "cheap" hotels in Segovia are actually near the train station—no charm, no location. My top picks? Walkable to everything (Alcázar, Aqueduct, Plaza Mayor), have real Spanish breakfasts (not just toast), and the owners will give you their secret wine bar. One of my clients, a German couple, stayed at Hostal de los Reyes for 10 days and said, "We felt like locals." That’s the Segovia magic.
Final tip: Book your hotel early—Segovia’s tiny streets mean few rooms. I always reserve 2 months ahead on Booking.com for the best price. For car rentals (if you need to visit Avila), I use Europcar at Segovia station (€28/day, includes insurance).
Segovia’s beauty isn’t in the postcard views—it’s in the quiet streets, the €3 tapas, and the €35 hotel that makes you feel at home. Skip the tourist traps, stay where the locals live, and you’ll leave with stories (not just photos). Trust me—I’ve been doing this for 15 years, and this is how you do Segovia right.
