Hotel Virxe da Cerca by Pousadas de Compostela

Very central located hotel with lovely garden overlooking to the old city.

A great place to stay! The staff couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful and the vocation was ideal for access to the old city.

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 is a really wonderful hotel. We have stayed in Santiago many times and always been happy with our hotel, but this is where we will stay in the future. The building is so beautiful, the gardens an added bonus and the rooms so comfortable, Add to this a great breakfast and such friendly and efficient staff and you get a 5 star experience. Thank you so much

We love this hotel! Excellent location, right across the street from the old town quarter, just a few minutes walk to the majestic cathedral, restaurants, shops, bakeries, markets, cafes. Front desk reception staff were super helpful, warm, friendly. Check in was fast and easy, the lovely lady receptionist gave us informative instruction about breakfast which served in the bright, sunny breakfast room overlooking a gorgeous garden filled with gardenia, geranium, and also a bird aviary. Wonderful self-served breakfast buffet, with so many types of bread, pastries, cheese, meat, fried eggs, bacon, milk, coffee, juices, and tea. Heathy breakfast choices included cereal, muesli, oatmeal, natural yogurt, and fruits. Breakfast room attendants were very nice. We booked 3 rooms for 2 nights on the old, classy, charming 3rd floor of the hotel. Very comfortable beds (great for tired feet and bodies after our epic Camino Portugués walk!) with large, clean bathroom, luxurious bathtub, cool AC, desk, closet. There’s also an elevator! We didn’t have to drag our 8 suitcases up and down the stairs like at many old European hotels. On check out day, the lady receptionist arranged a taxi van to take our group to the airport. Definitely of one of most memorable, most wonderful hotels we’ve stayed on our month long trip across France, Portugal, and Spain. Highly recommend!

Charmingly converted older building. Lovely garden. Attentive staff. Right at edge of historic center, so it’s easy to walk to the sites or get a taxi to the airport.
