Pros:

Couldn't have been happier with our stay here. The room with big, thick stone walls was very warm and cosy and the bed, so comfortable.

Staff were friendly and helpful and the buffet breakfast was varied and available until 11am, just in case you want to enjoy the bed a bit
.
Location was fantastic, 5 minutes walk and your in front of the cathedral.

ESTADIA RELAXANTE
Pros:

Apesar e não ser uma localização tão central quanto outras, acaba por ser uma excelente opção. Está a 5 minutos a pé da catedral e do coração de Santiago. Ainda assim existem muitos pontos de interessa muito perto, a começar pelo mercado de Santiago, logo do outro lado da rua.
Staff muito simpático e disponivel, quartos muito espaçosos e confortáveis.
Foi a minha terceira estadia, neste hotel. E penso repetir

Cons:

Gostei de tudo :-)

Un lugar tranquilo, especial y junto al casco histórico. Cómodo para moverse a cualquier sitio de la ciudad andando.
Pros:

La cercanía al centro de Santiago de Compostela. El edificio en el que se nota su antigüedad en materiales como la piedra de suelos o la decoración y lo cuidado que esta. La tranquilidad, con un precioso jardín, aun estando en el centro.

Cons:

nada
