Beautiful old hotel in excellent condition. Plenty of public spaces to stretch out and mingle. The garden and bar are both great locations for afternoon tea or drink. I would happily return and sty awhile.

This was the perfect place for my stay in Santiago de Compostela! It is right on the edge of the central district, with easy access to shopping and a short walk from the cathedral. The property is beautifully decorated, well-kept and comfortable.

Since there is no elevator from the parking garage, there needs to be a bell service to help with bags.

We upgraded to room that was part of the old Jesuit monastery with lots of stone, very nice. Nice green area in the back and cozy little areas for sitting. Staff was very knowledgeable/helpful. We would highly recommend this hotel!

What a wonderful place. They have the courtyard in the middle that is so inviting. Great for a cup of coffe or drink in the evening. The service was amazing and the breakfast was really good. Easy walk to the city center and the local places to eat.

Amazing hospitality and friendliness
Amazing hospitality and friendliness. It felt like we had arrived at a friend’s home. We had to make changes to our booking due to flight delays, but the staff made it easy for us and also made sure we didn’t have any additional inconveniences. This is an old building which used to be a Jesuit residence, but this really adds to its charm. And the patio area is nice and quiet. The hotel sits just outside of the old city wall but access is just across the street. Overall, I do recommend this place when visiting Santiago de Compostela.
