Hotels in Santiago de Compostela
A network of historic inns and manor houses, organized through Pazos de Galicia, offers a marvelous new way to stay in Galicia. All the properties have been restored with an eye to comfort and quality. A map on the website shows historic homes around the cities of Galicia, with A Coruña, Santiago de Compostela, and Pontevedra being the most preferred choices. Of course, you’ll need a car to reach these places, which lie outside cities or towns of historic interest. They include Pazo da Touza, Rúa dos Pazos, 119 (tel. 98-638-30-47), an eight-room 16th-century manor house near Vigo, and Pazo do Souto, Calle Torre, 1, Carballo (tel. 98-175-60-65), a restored rustic manor house with a pool on the Costa da Morte.
