Checkin was very efficient, and the staff even handled returning my car rental's return to the man collecting it, which enabled me to leave the hotel and meet my wife who was walking the Camino de Santiago's final day of the Portuguese Way. Breakfast was great, in the monks gathering hall. The building is renovated in a monastery built after St. Francis of Assisi visited the Pilgrimage site, and it is about 250 meters from Santiago Cathedral in a quiet area. There was a wedding in the church attached, very nice facilities with long history.

This is our third visit to this hotel, starting in 2009, and really there is not much not to like. It has a perfect quiet location but is so close to the Cathedral and the walking streets near it so it is very convenient, and its history makes it unique. It seems worth the cost.

Driving up to this hotel took my breath away - what a gorgeous, historic building, with wad loads of character. Check in was wonderful - the staff couldn't do more to help. The room we stayed in was on the 5th floor and we had a sofa bed for our child and were able to open the sun lights in the roof - truly magical. The bed was very comfortable and the room was spacious, the bar fridge and coffee machine were an added bonus. Breakfast was outstanding and the staff again, amazing. The pool was perfect for our little family and a nice time-out at the end of the day. Parking was easy to find and the courtyard in the middle of the hotel was a perfect retreat for a parents drink :) The hotel is so central and such great value - you'd be crazy not to take this place up!

Nothing :)

Superb location, excellent staff, comfortable room, excellent restaurant. Breakfast was very good. So close to the major sights of Santiago, an ideal base for this city. I feel like the restaurant could be better advertised- the “convent food” sounds grim but was in fact very high quality food, expert cooking and highly professional service. Beware some strange translations to English! Our room at the front of the hotel was by the lift but with an inner door to the room we were totally undisturbed.

No major complaints. We did try to use the cafeteria one after noon but there were no staff around. I’m sure we could have asked in reception but after waiting a little while decided just to get back into town for more sightseeing

This hotel was spectacular. The location -- it is right in the heart of medieval Santiago. People go past and our rooms looked out towards the cathedral. It was awesome. The rooms were large with room to have the family sitting together to share a drink in one bedroom comfortably. Then the building itself -- it is an old convent which is huge and attached to one of the most imposing churches in Santiago. So if finishing the Camino this is a very welcome luxurious treat.

We didn't eat dinner, but the menu looked a little eccentric. There are lots of great restaurants in town though.

What a great experience!! From the check-in by the highly professional, welcoming, and helpful staff, to the size of the rooms, and especially the fact that you know that you're staying in what was a monastery, it was a true traveler's experience. In addition, the location was close to restaurants, bars, cafes, bakeries, and of course, the Catedral. I can't imagine a better place to stay in Santiago de Campostela. (I was actually surprised that this wasn't a parador. t certainly felt like many of the paradors in which we've stayed in Spain.

My wife found the bed and pillows a little hard, but that's a quibble.

Lovely old monastery buildings. Good value and quality food in main restaurant. Good location very near Cathedral but not on noisy main square. Nice indoor swimming pool and Jacussi.

First night restaurant was closed for a wedding so guests had to eat in the cafe. No complimentary water in rooms. Coffee maker but no tea. Place felt quite empty as so large. 2 lifts that were about 50 metres apart and went to different floors was confusing bit due to age of building.

The building is magnificent. The room is modern and clean but had a great view to the courtyard. The restaurant was shut on Sunday but the setting is wonderful. Breakfast looked too steep at 22 euros but left early anyway. We had a late night coffee at the cafeteria and that was a great area to relax. Easy walk to cathedral area and restaurants to the south. Parking was free but car taken to another area with key kept at reception.

Not much. Cost leans towards the expensive side but the building makes up for that.

The covent is excellently converted into the hotel, and there is so much to see and admire through out. Very big and comfortable rooms, and the amenities provided are excellent value for money. The food at the restaurant was amazingly delicious. The care, attention to detail and professionalism of all the staff we encountered could not have been more excellent. Because we had to leave at 7am, they were very prompt to offer and prepare a takeaway breakfast bag, very complete and that home made cake was superb, thank you! Definitely worth the money for a special occasion or if you simply can easily afford it. Strongly recommend for stress free, comfortable and pampered stay!

The pool house is smaller than expected and the jacuzzi was out of order. It is perfect if there are no more than 3-5 guests at a time, with the jacuzzi working. The pool is long enough for good exercise swimming.

Beautiful hotel in an old monastery. The rooms are comfortable but very plain. There is a fridge and a safe. Bathroom is spacious. Big bonus is the swimming pool in an adjacent building. The breakfast is very good with nice selection of cheeses, cold cuts, fruit, breads etc. - there is even the famous tarta de Santiago to try. Convenient location - everything you want to see in Santiago de Compostela is very close. There is free parking in the back of the building. I recommend asking upfront for the directions to the parking. The hotel is next to a church and the churchgoers don't take it lightly if your car is in their way.

This was a lovely hotel, tastefully adapted from the original building and still attached to a beautiful church. It is a very close to the Cathedral Square - just a couple minutes walk; in fact, I would often return to the hotel to drop things off or to make a quick bathroom break and be back in the square in no time. However, this hotel is not in densely stacked bars and restaurants so it was quite quiet at night despite the superb location. The street from the Cathedral to the hotel has a number of souvenir and food options, but honestly there were much better options elsewhere. Use the fact that it is close enough to explore the rest of the town and you will be happier.
