This is an amazing hotel: comfortable and well decorated, historic, and literally a stone's throw from the cathedral. In the heart of historic Santiago, yet very quiet rooms. The staff is friendly and helpful, and we loved all of the artwork. Fantastic place to stay.

We had a wonderful experience at Hotel Rua Villar. The hotel is very nice and conveniently located close to everything in Santiago de Compostela. The room we had, number 13, was lovely and quiet. The breakfast and service was terrific. But I can not say enough about the front desk clerk, Sandra. She is a fountain of valuable information regarding restaurants and every other aspect of Santiago, even where to go to get the best picture of the cathedral.. She is patient and has so much knowledge of the area. We would stay here again if back in Santiago.

Wonderful kind people in a beautiful setting. Immaculately maintained. Would highly recommend! Only advice is if possible don’t go for the downstairs room (unless there is no choice) - it’s small and more suited to one guest rather than two.

A charming comforting place.

I loved this hotel. It is quaint with traditional details. The young ladies who work at the front desk are the most welcoming, charming hostesses! The beds are older but we still slept well. The location was wonderful. The only difficulty is getting your luggage to the hotel but you can avoid this problem by arriving when taxi’s are permitted on the street. I did not but I would still return and drag luggage through the historic area to be greeted so kindly.
