What a fabulous little place. Ideally situated in the heart of the old town. Next to the cathedral and all the lovely little tapas bars. We would stay here again in a heart beat.

Glorious Santiago.

Pretty close to Santiago Cathedral, which marks the center of Santiago de Compostela. Had to register at a different address which was 2 blocks away. Old building, remodeled but no elevator...

Cons & Pros: We originally reserved at the Pension next door that is associated with the hotel, however the two-bed room we reserved wasn’t available to us and they wouldn’t let us cancel the reservation. When we arrived, they offered a two-bed room in the hotel at an extra price. I was pretty miffed and it didn’t seem very hospitable at all to hold us to the reservation when the room wasn’t even available! The kindness and helpfulness of the front desk staff woman (didn’t get her name) however was top notch which helped rebuild my trust. The room was also very nice (there was a sitting area and library on the floor that we really loved). Another weird thing is that they wouldn’t let us order the small breakfast buffet unless we reserved 1 day in advance (?). We could sit in the restaurant and enjoy eating ala carte right next to buffet table, but we could not eat/order the buffet. How odd!

The front desk lady was very professional, kind, and good at her job. She gave me much information and when I needed to extend a night she gave me another room and let me leave my luggage in original room (since it was booked) to be transferred while I was out on tour. Highly recommend this place!

Zentraler geht es nicht, direkt an der Kathedrale! In der Umgebung findet man alles was man braucht. Zimmer schön ruhig in einer Seitenstraße. Rezeption immer besetzt und sehr freundlich. Ich fand den Zimmerpreis lediglich etwas zu teuer für eine Nacht.

시내 중심에 있는 숙박 시설 !!

숙박지가 콤포스텔라 성당에 아주 가까이 있어서 언제든지 시내관광을 하다가도 항상 쉴 수 있고 치안도 아주 좋은 편이며, 직원들도 아주 친절했다.
