Hotels in A Coruña

Very few places are as privileged as the Tower of Hercules to contemplate a beautiful sunset in A Coruña. For this alone, it’s worth visiting this beautiful city in Galicia. Whether you are traveling for leisure or business purposes, we recommend you to book at our comfortable hotels in La Coruña, Spain near the popular Jardines de Méndez Núñez.

What to visit during your stay in A Coruña

The Torre de Hercules is the oldest Roman lighthouse in the world. It’s still in operation and is an iconic place that should be seen during your visit to A Coruña; one of the most beautiful cities near the Atlantic. Its promenade is the longest in Europe with 13 kilometres long and it runs through a big part of the coast of Cantabria.

From the San Antón Castle to Portiño there are numerous places that you could visit on the way. One of the most attractive places to visit is the already mentioned tower of Hercules, a World Heritage Site and Heritage of Cultural Interest (BIC). The tower is 58 meters high and it has a neoclassical facade full of mysterious histories from the I and II centuries AD. In addition, the environment invites you to dream about the Greek and Celtic myths in a beautiful sculptural park integrated into the Tower of Hercules. Another charming place that you should not miss is the Monte de San Pedro, a well-preserved park with a balcony that once served as a defensive surveillance point. The park is 13 kilometres long and nowadays it allows visitors to enjoy the best views of A Coruña. The locals usually run through this walk that is also channelled to other charming places in the interior of its own peninsula, such as the Méndez Núñez gardens. Another interesting square is the Plaza de María Pita, dedicated to the hero and advocate of the city against the attack of the English troops of Sir Francis Drake in 1589.
