Old world charm. It feels like your staying in an old European castle. Solid block walls, hard wood floors, antiquities all around and with moder amenties like free wifi!! It doesn't get much better than this for a romantic European stay!

After countless days on the Camino de Santiago and lots of Pensions, we arrived at Hotel Virxe Da Cerca. The room was spotless, warm and cozy. The little sitting area off the bedroom was a real nice touch. Excellent service! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
