Husa Ciudad de Compostela - Santiago de Compostela, Spain 

This is a modern comfortable hotel just outside the historic centre. It’s a bit of a hike up to the old town but taxis are plentiful and cheap. Our room was fine and was comfortable enough for a couple of nights. It was at the front of the hotel and overlooked a fairly busy main road but we slept OK despite the fact there was no aircon so we had to leave the window open slightly. The beds were fine and the bathroom good, the walk in shower was great. The staff though were excellent. We didn’t arrive until fairly late and we hadn’t eaten properly for a while so it was great to discover the caf? at the front of the hotel served food till 11.00 pm. We had a pretty decent meal and the waiter couldn’t have been more helpful. We were the only ones eating and I can think of umpteen hotels I’ve been to in the past who wouldn’t have been bothered under those circumstances. He even popped back a couple of time to ask if everything was OK and was the wine he’d chosen to our taste. He was a really nice bloke. The reception staff were also very good and found a continental adaptor for us when we said we’d brought an Egyptian one by mistake. All in all, an excellent start to our holiday and just what we needed to kick things off. Despite the fact the hotel’s not central, I’d recommend it.

We stayed for 3 nights the hotel was great,clean and quiet. The breakfast was adequate self service. There is no coffee making facilities in the room but the hotel has a cafe bar street side where you can purchase drinks and food and stays open till midnight (there is a minibar in the room) If you turn left out of the hotel and up the hill on the left after the steps there are a couple of good local resturants/bars and on the right is an octopus tapas bar which is very good and their local red wine is excellent and very cheap. The old town is about a 20 mins walk or a taxi is about 5 euros. The station is a turn right out of the hotel and a 20 mins brisk walk there is a good Sunday market in Padron it has a nice old centre where you can sit in the square at a bar and watch the world go by. We would use this hotel again.
