The location in the historic district of Santiago de Campostela was perfect for exploring the area. The staff was so helpful in suggesting activities and dining options. They brought my luggage up to my room and back down, scheduled a taxi for me to get to the train station when I left, and were so kind to me. I would definitely stay here again.

Nice guest rooms in a charming 14th? Century building in old town, only steps from the end point of camino de santiago. Staff was extremely helpful - did our laundry after we finished the camino (for free) and arranged taxis for us. Really enjoyed our stay.

This property is within 5 minutes of the Cathedral and plaza! Close and convenient to food, historical sites, and laundry. The staff were very kind and helpful and they had the most comfortable beds we had slept in across Spain! The one warning I would give is that like most European hotels, there is not an elevator. Fantastic location!!

The Casa da Balconada is a cute, boutique-like small hotel. Everything is clean to the detail, and the rooms are beautifully set. I had a room with a balcony, and great views of the cathedral. The staff is polite and supportive. Perfect for staying in a peaceful environment and, at the same time, very convenient to explore restaurants, historic places, religious monuments.

This place was a phenomenal end to our Camino journey! Just steps from the catedral. The host, Christina, was so helpful throughout our stay (she helped us bring up our suitcases, gave us great recommendations, and organized two early morning taxis for us, etc.). My dad and I loved every part of this stay and would absolutely come back.
