Not lavish at all but spotlessly clean(apart from a dirty loo brush and a bit of mould on the bathroom ceiling-sorry but I am a stickler for cleanliness)The staff really are to be commended -they are fantastic and hotel is in a great location.Perfect after a hard day on the Camino!

A little hard for us to find but wow! As we we walking towards the door a couple coming out said 'you're going to love it here'. They were absolutely right. As we walked in us grubby and weary Camino travelers were greeted by smiling faces no different than if we were clean and shiny. The man and woman behind... More

It isn't perfect, but for the price it is definitely 5 star. I wish I didn't have to leave my room key at the door when I left the hotel to go out, and like all Spanish hotels you are carrying around two actual metal keys instead of cards. But that's a minor quibble. Very, very accommodating hosts who are... More

We stayed here for one night during our camino walk, and it was a pleasant experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was ok, but a bit small. The bathroom was great – clean and nice. The beds were a bit disappointing – somewhat hard and not very comfortable. Compared to the other accommodations available on the... More

We were a couple of tired perigrinos looking for a break from the Camino. Casa Benilde was just what the doctor ordered. The location was great, the rooms were clean, but most importantly the staff was the most helpful and friendly we have met in Spain. Pilar and Francisco (the husband and wife owners) were quite simply amazing. They went... More

The team at Casa Benilde couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. The room was exceptionally clean, small but comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble for staff and all done with a smile. They made our stay at Palas due Rei all that ,ore enjoyable.

By far one of the most accommodating staff we met on our recent El Camino trip. They anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. The bags were already taken up to our rooms and the best part was they provided us with a place to hang our clothes to dry! No other hotel we stayed at offered this... More

it would be easy for a hotel to just 'coast' in Palas de Rei. As a stop on the Pilgrims Way to Santiago, there is a constant stream of pilgrims looking for cheap basic accommodation. So the fact that Casa Benilde doesn't just coast and offers a very good level of service and accommodation comes as a welcome surprise. It's... More
