Luxurious hotel with exceptional service as was consistent with our other Parador stays on this trip!
Pros:

Beautiful hotel that caters to all your post Camiño needs. Staff is awesome, breakfast delicious, rooms super comfortable. Love the location overall but at the same time location came with its noise challenges.

Cons:

Reception was kind and got us set up in another room. Our first night post hike was pretty miserable and we needed/wanted sleep but I chose an upgraded room that was gorgeous and over amply sized but its windows faced the exterior and it was noisy with people speaking loudly either under our room’s window or a continuous flow of passer bys, garbage service (?), church bells from 2-7am which was a real bummer.

Perfect ending to a Pilgrimage.
Pros:

It was a great experience to stay in the original Pilgrims Hostal /Hospital. Staff were super nice and friendly. The building is very historically significant as a pilgrim and would highly recommend to stay there at least once.

Cons:

Nothing comes to mind

Historical classic hotel right next to Santiago Cathedral.
Pros:

We love the historical building and location that right on the beautiful square Plaza del Obradoiro. Room was big, airy, strong water pressure, good WiFi, nice bathroom with bathtub, comfortable bed, has classic antique wooden furnitures and windows that we can open to let fresh air in. Breakfast was okay. Staff were polite and welcoming. This was my second time staying here and I am looking forward to stay here again probably after the closing in 2028 for the major renovation done (I got this info from the staff).

Cons:

Breakfast should have more vegetables.
