Ein wunderbarer Abschluss und Highlight einer anstrengenden Reise!
Pros:

Die Lage ist fantastisch, vom Balkon sieht man direkt auf die Kathedrale. Ebenso auf einen kleinen Platz, bzw. Park. Dieser ist zwar belebt, aber dennoch sehr angenehm für die zentrale Lage. Gibt es was Schöneres, als nach dem Camino von den Glocken der Kathedrale geweckt zu werden? Ebenso hervorzuheben ist das angeschlossene Restaurant im Souterrain. Sehr lecker und auch das Frühstück war besser als in meinen anderen Herbergen und teilweise teure Hotels.

Cons:

Mir ist eigentlich nichts negativ aufgefallen, ja es ist kein Neubau und im Flur etwas verwinkelt. Ich komme auf jeden Fall gerne wieder. Zentraler geht fast nicht, was sehr gut ist, wenn man von einer langen Wanderung kommt.

Fantastic location!
Pros:

The location simply can’t be beat. It’s on a charming square and a block from the cathedral. Lovely view from the window over the square. Terrific staff at desk and restaurant.

Cons:

Room (triple) was tidy but pretty spartan. However, we didn’t mind as we were there to see the city just for a night.

Aangenaam verblijf, maar prijs/kwaliteit/service net te duur.
Pros:

Een hele ruime kamer met fantastisch bed en heel mooi uitzicht. Charmant & gezellig vlak aan de kathedraal. Veel natuurlijk licht & luiken voor de vensters. Koffie & thee op de kamer. Heel netjes en kraaknet linnengoed.

Cons:

Een lege minibar, water voor koffie en/of thee wordt niet aangevuld. De prijs/kwaliteit van het ontbijt is ondermaats. Ga tijdig ontbijten, zo niet moet je je tevreden stellen met de restjes. (Ontbijtbuffet wordt niet aangevuld.) Reiskoffers worden niet door hotelservice op je kamer gebracht.

Ordentliches Hotel im Zentrum von Santiago de Compostela.
Pros:

Hotel in Toplage

Cons:

Leider hatten wir ein Zimmer mit Fenster zu einem Lichtschacht. Klein und nicht zu belüften. Waschbecken und Dusche mit falschem Gefälle. Wir haben uns andere Zimmer angesehen, die top aussahen, aber leider belegt waren.
