Guesthouse Casa Diocesana VIA LUCIS
José María Suárez Núñez, 6 , 15705 Santiago de Compostela, Spain – Great location - show map
It’s a very beautiful place, a monastery with a garden in the cloister. It’s very calm and yet in convenient proximity to the city center and lots of attractions. The staff was specially nice, it was a pleasure to interact with them every day.
Czech RepublicComfortable beds. Peaceful place. Nice gardens. Nice staff.
IrelandIt was quiet and peaceful. Convenient to close cafes on the campus. The regular receptionists were professional and helpful. The parking was off the street, inside locked and gated grounds. The grounds were lovely.
United States of AmericaThe staff was very friendly. The location is good, on the campus, with parking, and quiet, but just a 15 minute walk to the cathedral and old town. Overall the price is good for what you get.
United States of AmericaThe staff was helpful the hotel was pintoresque . Rooms are comfortable
ColombiaClean and quiet, staff very friendly, secure, easy car parking within premises; attractive location with nice gardens; university cafe nearby was a great place to get a meal or a drink
United States of AmericaThe entire stay was excellent. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the room was clean and had everything I needed, the water pressure in the bathroom was great, my room oversaw a garden which was very nice, we even had a place to leave our car at for the duration of our stay... The place is about 15 minutes (walking distance) from the center, but the walk is really pleasant and necessary given the amount of tapas we ate every day. If you are looking for a luxurious hotel to stay at right at the center of the city, this is not the place for you. But, if you’re looking for a comfortable, clean, honest and peaceful place to stay at, still close enough to everything, then this is the spot. All in all, it was a great stay and I would both recommend it to my friends and stay there again.
PortugalBeautiful, quiet location on the University campus. Nice grounds, stark but more than adequate rooms.
United States of AmericaVery clean. Great parking inside the premise grounds. A monastery feel.
IsraelBeautiful peaceful environment. Lovely building and gardens and large potted begonias throughout the hotel, lovingly tended to. Many sunny spots where you could sit and read both in the inner courtyard and hallways and alcoves. So spacious. Seemed more like a monastery than a hotel. Very warm reception. Had a washing machine and dryer which was very useful for us. Rooms simple with only liquid soap in the bathroom but this was not an issue for us as the hostel was so cheap. All rooms seem to have a view of the gardens.
