HOTEL CARRIS CASA DE LA TROYA

Title says it all - almost! Forgot the lovely staff. Friendly with a positive attitude, nothing being too much trouble. Wouldn't hesitate to book again if back in SdC! Breakfast was included, which was fresh and tasty. Perhaps breakfast room is a little small if they were fully booked and you might have to wait for a table for a little while.

After a flight diversion, we got to spend 1 1/2 days in Santiago. After a frantic look online, we ended up in Hotel Carris Casa de la Troya. We were welcomed by Francisco who gave us lots of great tips for places to eat and where to visit. Pintxos at El Papatorio was a fabulous recommendation. The hotel is in a great location to the old town, cathedral etc. It was a short walking distance from Praza de Galicia where the stop is for the airport bus, which we found to be the best (and cheapest) way to get to the hotel from the airport. Our rooms were comfortable and well equipped, WIFI was free and worked well, the shower was amazing and I didn't hear any noise from the street, however the street the hotel is on is very quiet. Our rooms were on the ground floor and we did find however that there was a very strong smell of damp, which is to be expected in old buildings. If we had been staying longer, I would have been asked to move rooms. Despite this we found the staff to be excellent and they couldn't have been any more helpful. Even though we hadn't planned to visit the city, we had a fabulous time there!

Very nice little hotel in the middle of old town Santiago de Compostela. Great location right next to Cathedral, restaurants and most historic places. Taxis to/from airport take you right next to the hotel for 21 euros. Airport Bus is a 5 min walk from/to hotel for 3euros/ person. Venture outside old town and you will find super nice parks and the, not to miss, "Ciudad de Cultura". Thanks to Francisco and the Carris staff for good service and great tips!

It couldn't be better. Great location, just 3 minutes walk to the cathedral and all kind of restaurants, shops and services. Very clean and comfortable rooms, well decorated, as soon as you walk in the hotel you can feel peace and quietness. I would definitely recommend it.

Nothing is too much trouble for the wonderful staff at Casa Carris de la Troya. The warmth of the welcome we received after a long drive, the efficiency of the registration process and the quiet and simplicity of the hotel were balm to our tired bodies. Silvia helped with everything- luggage, parking, check-in. She even walked with us to our car, parked at a distance to the hotel and accompanied us to the parking lot. The hotel is situated in the heart of the old city, steps from the cathedral, and its quiet location ensures a great night's sleep. Than you so much, Silvia.
