The hotel is 3 km away from the city center of Santiago de Compostela right off the 6 lane high way near the Convention center. There is a bus running to the City Center but not very regularly. So you better have your own transport to go to the center of this marvellous city. But where to park there?????
The hotel is marketed as a five star hotel. It has big rooms and good beds. It reminded me of a resort hotel in the US. There it would gain 4 stars, since it lacks those special things of a five star: Towels were not abundant, there was no bell boy to help with the luggage at 9 PM, the breakfast buffet big, the quality fine, but not overwhelming.
The main draw back was the sound proofing: My neighbour's television seemed to be in my room. Perhaps he was deaf?
I booked the hotel on the same day on a European hotel reservation site and paid 75 euros for a double room with breakfast buffet for two. That was very good, since all the more centrally located hotels in Santiago were fully booked.
In my opinion this is a hotel for tour groups, but as an individual traveller you will be better off staying near the city center where you don't have to take a bus to get to the next café.
