Au cœur de la vieille ville Hôtel simple.
Peut-être un peu bruyant le soir.
The location is excellent, large room and bathroom size, clean.
The bathroom lacked towel holders, and a small table for suitcase would have been handy.
La ubicación
Mucho ruido
Lovely central hotel :)
La situació al centre del poble, el personal molt atent i l esmorzar excel•lent
El matalàs del llit, no era del tot comode.
Skvěla dostupnost, hned u katedrály
I love the location. 2 min walking distance to the catedral plazas and everything you can see. The staff is so nice and helpful. I highly recommend
Location, Location, Location. View of the cathedral from our terrace. Ideal spot for those ending their Camino as you are 50 meters from the plaza.
No negatives.
Perfect location … great staff, wonderful facilities … will stay again

N/A
The hotel is very good with perfect location, the receptionist is great
Breakfast was terrible. The lady at the reception told me they make every kind of eggs for breakfast. When i went down the waitress showed me the 3 sad salami they had. No menu, no question. No vegies no fruit. I went to eat somewhere else.
Room was big (ok, I had a “Junior suite”, as that was the only room available and discounted). Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Interior nicely decorated. All in all, matches a expected quality of a nice boutique hotel. Staff friendly and helpful. Fluent in English. Great location.
Was told bikes “not allowed” in the hotel, and offered an off-site storage option, with extra fee. The fee wasn’t the issue. It’s the hours. Not open till 10am. So anyone needs to leave before 10 will have no option but to leave the bike on the street! Or, if you want to use the hotel as a base for day ride to nearby town, you’re restricted to return before 10pm (~ sunset time). There’s plenty of space inside the room to stash the bike. So the “no bike inside the hotel” policy seems rather unnecessary. Frankly, given the price of the room, they could have easily work with the “storage” place (it’s a souvenir shop) to store the bike for free. Not sure what to do about the access hour though. I would think storing the bike in the hotel between 10pm-10am (in the room if space available, or any space unused at night) should be allowed. Needless to say, although I’m pleased with the hotel as a place to stay in Santiago, I wouldn’t stay there if I were traveling with a bike.
Great decor helpful staff
Old building (but very well and recently renovated) meant room was a bit noisy
Parking on site. Beautiful rooms and comfortable bed. High end toiletries. .
Lots of mannequins used as decorations . Not my personal choice but does not diminish the hotel.
El personal super simpático y nos ayudaron en todo. El sitio precioso y ubicación excelente.
地理位置绝佳!离大教堂广场步行2分钟。周围全是饭店和礼品店,逛街逛累了可以回酒店躺一会儿。前台非常认真负责,早餐量足,味道也不错,有自己烤的当地特色杏仁蛋糕,第二天我们走的早,还帮我们打包好。总之,很棒!
Centrally located to the Cathedral.
Nothing at all, everything was excellent!
It’s overall great Location, and the staff
Love this place, perfect location, fabulous room and great breakfast!! See
A Mary foi incrível, teve o cuidado de saber se conhecíamos a zona e prontamente deu indicações turísticas e hoteleiras. A localização é excelente e o serviço da taverna também!
Nada a apontar
Gran sensación de calidad en general
Entrada al hotel algo dudosa y demasiado ruido en la habitación para tratarse de una Suite....
One minute walk from end of Camino and central location to everything
Nothing
Great location
Great central location. Great facilities (fridge, coffee and tea making) freestanding bath, good shower and all very clean.
Poor noise insulation. Our room overlooked a busy street and we had to put the air conditioning system on to drown the constant noise of party goers and singing drunks with what appeared to be PA systems! You expect cathedral bells on the quarter hour but not someone shouting under the window at 3am! Needs triple glazing and preferably a larger bed.
Pretty location and clean.
There is live music in the street just underneath the bedroom window until 2am. The hotel staff were not present and did not care that we could not sleep. I will never book here again. Terrible experience.
Heerlijk genoten, centrum van Santiago.
Alles was oké 👌
La ubicación
La dirección no advierte es que es paseo peatonal y que la otra entrada no tiene ascensor para el equipaje. No apto para personas con discapacidad y/o hartas maletas.
La ubicación de este hotel es un lujo, a pocos metros de la catedral. La limpieza y la amplitud de la habitación eran sobresalientes. Un acierto alojarnos allí. Sí vuelvo a Santiago repetiré.
The location is so central and perfect. The rooms were well equipped and clean, and they upgraded us to an exterior view room with a small balcony. The reception staff were all so friendly and informative. I asked them about bus transport to the airport, and they were very knowledgeable. We were also able to leave our bags in the lobby until it was time to go to the airport. The souvenir shop just underneath the reception is the best one I’ve ever been to. Definitely deserves all 10 points, and we will definitely be staying there next time we go to Compostela de Santiago.
The room walls and floors were a bit thin, so you could hear cracking floorboards and some street noise, but it’s understandable given that it’s an old building and they cannot change the main structure for heritage reasons.
La posizione centralissima a pochissimi metri dalla cattedrale, la cortesia dello staff e la pulizia accurata della camera. Si esce a piedi e si raggiungono tutti i monumenti in brevissimo tempo, cosi come i negozi o i ristoranti.
Noi avevamo la camera che dava sotto i portici, nonostante gli infissi fossero nuovissimi purtroppo si sentivano i rumori provenienti dalla strada soprattutto il vociare delle persone.
Location excellent in town centre. Helpful reception who texted me once room was ready some 4 hours before official time which was very helpful as wet from last leg of comino and could shower, change and get out for lunch
No coffee facilities and charge for small bottle of water in room. Bathroom door was tight fit and if closed needed good tug to open.
Ubicación excelente cerca de todo.
Muy pequeña la habitación y con falta de mobiliario de apoyo.
Loved and enjoyed being in the City, yet able to sleep with the noise taking place below our window. Was quieter than expected and beds were comfortable. Checkin was a breeze.
Porque tiene SOLO 2 estrellas ? Es un excelente Hotel, muy bien cuidado y atendido. Nos sentimos muy a gusto
En nuestra habitacion se sentian las pisadas del pasillo y la habitacion de arriba por los pisos de madera. Pero nada que impida un excelente descanso
Location
Great location, right in the heart of the old town. Very clean and comfortable
Lo que más me gustó fue la ubicación!!
La relación calidad precio de algunas de las habitaciones. Teníamos algunas de ellas con calidad superior pero otras en cambio no tenían ni ventana, parecían más la habitación de un convento de clausura.
Situación.
Colchones bastante normales
It was all great from checking in.
One member of staff that truly lets the hotel down in my opinion.
La habitación espectacular, y en una situación privilegiada
Noisy people in room above and early noise from deliveries and tradespeople
Clean and lovely!
Hotel curatissimo nell’arredamento e nei dettagli; si trova nel centro pieno centro di Santiago e questo è sicuramente un valore aggiunto, ma se non desiderate percepire il rumore dell’esterno, non fa per voi. Noi lo abbiamo adorato, ci ha fatto pesare molto meno la fine del nostro pellegrinaggio. Personale gentilissimo
Nulla
The front desk receptionist was so helpful. Wonderful location.
Noisy at night.
La posizione molto centrale e la cena nel ristorante
La camera estremamente rumorosa, fredda, letto scomodo , prezzo troppo alto per la qualità offerta
El trato del personal en el desayuno y el desayuno fueron magnificos
Nada de luz en la habitación interior.
Beautiful view of courtyard outside
It would have been nice to be told in advance of the need to book an airport taxi the day before
A lovely welcome from a very kind receptionist. The location.
Amazing location, really nice staff and the restaurant is quite good.
It is VERY VERY loud outside the hotel. We stayed there Sunday to Tuesday so not even a weekend but street musicians stared playing at 10pm just outside the room and trucks come into the normally pedestrian area around 3am and continue until 9am. Its is an old building so understandably not very sound proof but was not expecting it to be this bad. We faced the side street so I except its event louder facing the square that’s busy all evening. We really did like the hotel and had a great stay but the sound is a problem for longer stays I’d say
Lovely spacious apartment, beautiful views and very useful coffee machine! ^-^ The location is amazing as well.
Ubicación perfecta. Amabilidad y profesionalidad del personal. Buenas instalaciones.
Amazing location for visiting the cathedral and a very comfortable way to end our Camino! Clean and luxurious!
The entrance was a bit hard to find. Also - not their fault, but there was a VERY loud screaming argument outside our window for several hours at night, some sort of domestic dispute, until at least 2am. Earplugs were no use! I doubt this is a regular occurrence
Nos gustó todo!!!! la situación es excelente el trato de 10
Todo oki
La atención del personal. Muy silencioso, al ser interior, ya que es una calle muuuy transitada, justo al lado de la catedral. El desayuno bueno y recién hecho a tu gusto.
La habitación era interior, aunque tenia una ventana a una zolana
Emplacement
Hotel situado céntrico limpio agradable a un paso de la catedral
Very clean, quiet, great A/C and right next to the cathedral. Great neighborhood and friendly staff.
Great central location.
Nothing.
Emplacement Chambre confortable et grande Petit déjeuner
Insonorisation insuffisante des fenêtres Nous avions une chambre donnant sur le jardin . Or ce n est pas un jardin mais une petite place très jolie mais très animée avec de nombreux restos et bars donc très bruyante jusqu’à tard dans la nuit et à partir de très tôt le matin . C est dommage il faudrait le préciser .
Situación y atención
Phantastischer Lage , unfassbarer Service , toller Empfang wunderschönes Zimmer , mitten in der Stadt und trotzdem ruhig - einfach herrlich!
Great location in Santiago de Compostela! Our room was on the 3rd floor with beautiful views over the garden and historic buildings. Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely restaurant in the hotel. The hotel is close to everything in the "village".
N/A
Excellent location, very clean and amazing staff who made you feel very welcome.
Nothing, it was perfect.
The property is very well located in the town center: a block from the cathedral and surrounded by restaurants. Mary at the desk got us checked in and settled and was more than happy providing info about the town and the immediate area. I will stay here again the next time I’m in town
Everything was great
Excellent staff and superb location
Localização top, bom hotel
The hotel was clean, in a beautiful historic building but with all mod cons. The bathrooms were fresh and well appointed. The staff were friendly and helpful. They spoke excellent English as well.
I had room 101 which was cold. I tried to change the air con settings but could not get the room to warm up. A blanket was provided in the cupboard and I had to use this. Room 101 was on rua do vilar, which is one of the main streets in santiago centre and was noisy through the night. The room was otherwise beautiful.
Tutto bellissimo!
Beautiful old building. Fantastic central location.
Hotel in an excellent location, staff focused on customer satisfaction. The room was as described.
The rooms are cleaned too late. The room I booked was on the third floor, but someone lived above me, and I could hear their movements until late at night. Breakfast was decent; the only downside was that the orange juice was industrial, and if you wanted real juice, you had to pay.
Adorei a localização, e o quarto. Tudo ótimo!
The location was in the city center. I was near the Cathedral and all the sites, shops, and dining.
The rooms were a little small and I had an interior room with windows that were block.
La ubicación
Las camas y almohadas , aún de resortes los colchones y las almohadas son cojines pésimo
The location and nice staff
The room was really small. After having been in great rooms/apartments along the Camino, this was supposed to be a treat and was the worst of all in my personal experience.
Das supertolle riesige Queensize Bett Schalldichte Fenster Die Lage
Nur ein kleiner Mülleimer im Bad ... für die ganze Suite. Komisch funktionierende Kaffeemaschine.
Posizione centralissima, solo pochi passi per arrivare alla cattedrale. Semplicemente un soggiorno fantastico❤️. Camera e tutta la struttura super pulito e accogliente, non potremmo chiedere di più 🤗 staff gentilissima, letti comodissimi!
Nulla… davvero
The location of the hotel is fantastic. The staff are also wonderful.
Nothing
Great hotel to end my Camino, next door to the Cathedral in the middle of old town. Very clean and the breakfast buffet was excellent. Great A/C!
My one-person room was in the middle of the building with no outside window. Still comfortable but felt a little claustrophobic.
Tout était parfait
La ubicación y el personal
Super amable el recepcionista y camarero Argentino del desayuno, localización inmejorable y la habitación estupenda con vistas preciosas plaza Fonseca.
Todo nos gustó
Clean, well appointed.
The bathroom showers were small.
La camera spaziosa, la vasca per due dopo 800km di cammino, la centralità e l'accoglienza
Qualidade e conforto do alojamento. Excelente localização
Amazing find, not far from the Cathedral. We upgraded to a suite and it was fantastic. Large room and MASSIVE bathroom and even a bath in our bedroom. There is a lot of noise from outside but that is to be expected from a central hotel. We had a drink and lunch/snacks in the restaurant and the team were lovely. We had dinner across the road at the Italian restaurant (no more walking for us!) Breakfast has hectic but done with a smile. Would stay again and bring ear plugs!
Location, clean, great staff
Location is the best and although in the middle of the hustle and bustle around the Cathedral, it is quiet and peaceful inside. Staff was fantastic, including the staff from the taverna downstairs that serves the hotel’s breakfast. Clean, small room but we had three beds so that explains the small spaces. Bathroom was comfortable and shower was great! (we looked for those small wins after walking El Camino). The view from the balcony was also wonderful. I will hope to come back on another visit.
Kevin !!! An amazing receptionist!! Groom was lovely and clean , in good location
Too noisy for me ! Trucks, people it was too much ! Invest in sound proofing
This hotel has a fantastic location in the centre of Santiago de Compostella. The staff are wonderful and helpful. There was a fantastic view of the garden/square from our room!
Nothing
Einfaches zweckmäßiges Hotel in zentraler Lage mit nettem Personal und gutem Frühstück und Klimaanlage.
Das Zimmer war zweckmäßig eingerichtet, aber nichts besonderes. Der Fernseher war mini. Preis empfinde ich als zu hoch.
The location was perfect, the staff were all excellent and the bed was massive
Liked everything
Está en el centro de Santiago, el personal muy amable y cuenta con ascensor que es algo raro en la ubicación en la que está. Además las habitaciones disponen de aire acondicionado y calefacción.
La insonorización de la habitación al exterior, se sentía el ruido de la calle.
A basic but comfortable hotel right in the centre of Santiago de Compostella.
My room was clean and tidy, if a little small.
la ubicacion
la habitacion que me toco no tenia absolutamente nada que ver con las mostradas en las de la pagina, habitacion super pequeña, con vistas a un patio interior pequeño y sin luz, ruidos de la gente que pasaba por el pasillo
Attenzione e ospitalità
Era tutto OK
What a gem! Right off a small, bustling plaza, gorgeous historic property with modern amenities. Staff welcoming and helpful. Loved the tub in the suite with balcony and sunset views. Couldn’t have been a better place close to cathedral to land post Camino.
