Nice place, friendly staff. Right in front of the port. No cafeteria or restaurant service weekends, only breakfast and room minibar. Hart to find a nice restaurant close to Hotel, something rare in Galicia

6/10 Good

The hotel is set in a beautiful building and enjoys a fantastic location — just a short walk to the city centre and the boats, which was especially convenient for our island-hopping plans. That said, I would strongly recommend requesting an exterior room. Ours was an interior room, and it felt very dark and confined, with a tiny window facing a shadowy inner courtyard. The room itself was also quite small, which added to the feeling of claustrophobia.

Good hotel

Lovely hotel in the centre of Vigo. Unfortunately the door to the balcony leaked due to the torrential rain we experienced one night. The bar was not open during our 3 night stay. Vigo is very, very hilly.

Excellent hotel, especially for the price. The hotel does not have a parking however there was one just across the street, very convenient, but very expensive. 30 euros overnight (!!)

Location was great. Staff allowed us early checkin because our room was ready. Nice! We were here during Christmas light season so it made it extra special. Cleaning crew for our room was perfect. Did not matter what time of day we went out if we left our clean room sign on door it was done when we returned. If we asked for extra towels, toilet paper, etc. they were quick to service. Front desk staff spoke English in case you don’t know Spanish. We did not use on sight restaurant/cafe or bar during our visit. It was closed at certain days and times, but we would not have eaten there anyway, so many great options within walking distance. The area is flat walking and some up hilll walks, however, city has done well accommodating the elderly with escalators and elevators on steep inclines. Overall great location, clean and nice hotel and area! Please note: You are right on the harbor. Our room was third floor water view. You do get street noise and harbor ship noise. If you are a very light sleeper this might not work. It was fine for us after long days walking and sight seeing we could sleep through anything.
