“Near the heart of Pontevedra, but just outside the busiest pedestrian zones, the location particularly suits those walking the Camino. I found the modern rooms, some with balconies, a real plus, offering ample space and comfort, though I think including complimentary water would be a thoughtful touch for pilgrims after a long day.”

Breakfast starts early, at 7:30. They serve eggs! Excellent to fuel up before hitting the Camino.
