Enterprise car hire locations - León

León is the capital of its namesake province and one of the oldest and most historic cities in Spain. It witnessed the passage of the Roman legions (to which it owes its name) and the creation of the first great Christian kingdom during the Reconquista period, the Astur-Leonés, among other episodes. This past is very present today in the character of a small city that is a pleasure to drive around by car.  Enterprise's branch in León is centrally located at 2 Plaza de San Marcos, a strategic point that will allow you to reach the city's main tourist attractions. For example, Avenida de la Condesa de Sagasta, which runs south of the branch, connects with other major roads, such as Avenida de Ordoño II, which leads directly to the old town. From there, travellers' possibilities multiply.

Car rental at Valladolid Airport

The closest airport to León with an Enterprise Rent-A-Car branch is Valladolid, located in the municipality of Villanubla. These facilities have opening hours from 6:30 AM to 10:30 PM (occasionally closing at 00:30 AM) and see passenger volumes that are significantly higher than that of other Castilian provinces, including León. In any case, Valladolid airport is connected to León by various bus routes and it takes less than two hours to cover the distance by road.

Things to do in León

The Cathedral of León is undoubtedly the city's most important monument. With a Gothic style (although some sources consider it to be neo-Gothic), the numerous stained glass windows in its interior scatter spectacular patterns of light. Equally captivating are the interiors of the Basilica of San Isidoro, which house an authentic Romanesque treasure. Casa Botines, designed by Antoni Gaudí, is another must-see thanks to its unique nature, as is the Museum of Contemporary Art of Castilla y León (MUSAC). And to pique your enthusiasm for the most striking urban environments, the Barrio Húmedo neighbourhood, and specifically the Plaza de San Martín, are two essential destinations that can be accessed by using a car rental service.

Places to visit outside León

León is located right in the centre of the province, making it easier to travel to other interesting destinations. The monumental city of Astorga is perhaps the most popular destination that can be reached thanks to Enterprise's car rental service. The Episcopal Palace is this town's most striking site, although the Cathedral of Santa María has a much more extensive history. To the south of this municipality is La Bañeza, especially known for its varied culinary delights, while in the north of the province, nature lovers can delight at the vicinity of the Picos de Europa mountain range.

Parking and traffic in León

León is not a complex city as far as driving is concerned. Traffic is fluid during most of the day on the main urban streets, such as Avenida de Europa to the east (which connects with the León-Valladolid motorway), or Avenidas Asturias and Padre Isla to the north. The only exception is the old town, where you need to drive with slowly and with caution. As for parking, those who want to approach the historic centre by car can park in the San Pedro car park, just a stone's throw away from the Cathedral, which is completely free of charge. Free-of-charge parking spots are usually available close to the train station.
