サンティアゴ・デ・コンポステーラのオートグラフ コレクションホテル

Unfortunately a big disappointment and 3/5 points is being generous. We had booked this hotel as a special highlight of our tour of Northern Portugal and Galicia, Spain. It was mistake. On a positive note: the junior suite with a view of the cathedral was very roomy; the hotel is situated in a quiet area and has on-site parking, not far from the centre of the city; the staff was always friendly and helpful. Nevertheless, the old fashioned and out-of-date furnishings of the room and of the hotel provided more of a stale, rather than an elegant oldy-worldy, atmosphere. The coffee machine in the room had two tiny PAPER!!! espresso cups and there was no hot water kettle. Has anyone every made tea with hot water from an coffee machine? Yes, it tastes like coffee. The 2 television sets in the room were ancient. The bath and shower were very basic for a 5 star hotel. The breakfast buffet was just embarassing. Stangely enough it was the same breakfast buffet, which was offered in the 4 star Marriot hotel in Vigo, infact it was a little less. Even in Vigo they managed to provide it in a fresh and inviting manner. In a 5 star hotel I would expect more. The coffee/tea machine was old and didn’t function properly. The manual toaster took ages to lightly brown anything. There was no freshly prepared egg station. No hot savoury dishes……. The quality of the product didn’t match the price. I have never been in a 5 star hotel in Spain just like it.
