The staff was helpful and the room was clean and comfortable. We were walking the Camino de Santiago, so we left really early to beat the heat, and didn't get to experience the in-house restaurant. But, upon our arrival, we had a lemonade in the bar, and it was the best! They even loaned us plates and utensils for our grocery-delivery dinner in our room because we had to eat before the restaurant opened so we could go to bed early!

Because we were on foot, walking the Camino, it was a bit of an extra trek to get to the hotel once we were in town, but if traveling by car or taxi that wouldn't be a problem. It just seemed awfully far to us, because we were already tired from walking all day!

The hotel is conveniently located right on the Camino route, making it easy to start or end your day without adding extra kilometers. The restaurant downstairs was a great perk - no need to walk anywhere for dinner, and the food was delicious. In the morning, breakfast is available (though we just grabbed coffee to go). A supermarket is only a 10-minute walk away. Our room had everything we needed, including a balcony and a comfortable bed. For the price, this property is amazing, and for our one-night stay, it was just perfect.

Big room. Big enough to do yoga on the floor. Bathroom was spacious and nice. Felt very clean. Restaurant on site. On the Camino path.

Sullen and sour staff. Seems no one liked being there. Food was average at the restaurant. Not just this hotel, but smart TV’s and Spanish dubbed tv is the norm and quite tiring. Sundays, the town is dead. You can’t check in till late but by the time you do, there’s no near grocery or many options. No staff at 7 am on Monday so I left key on the bed as there weren’t any check out instructions or key drop noted. No wifi password given.

We were surprised at what a great value this property offered. The hotel had wonderful old style classy character but with a modern, spacious room with a balcony overlooking the serene landscape. There is a restaurant onsite for breakfast and lunch (closed at 16:00) on the day we were there. It is a 5 minute walk to a few restaurants and grocery store and 10 minute walk from the Camino de Santiago trail. This was a convenient and comfortable stay prior to a long uphill hike into Vigo and we appreciated the comfort and value.

For those looking for more amenities (swimming pool, laundry service, gym etc.) this place does not offer that. We didn’t mind as we were looking for a comfortable place to sleep and didn’t care about those options.

The room was a very good size with a window with a garden view that had flowering plants and shade trees. There was hanging facilities with hangers. The beds and sheets were crisp clean. The toilet clean and had soap. the shared sapce outside was a wonderful way to meet up with othes and we had some great conversations.

The resturant was closed for the day - a heads up on that would have been a good idea - maybe it was a part of the instructions and I missed it.

We travelled for two nights with little expectations, just wanting to have a nice room with a private bathroom for a reasonable price. El Retiro absolutely exceeded our expectations. The rooms are very big, the bed is very comfortable, and the shower (and water quality!) was amazing. The staff were always very helpful and kind too. They let us borrow a hairdryer and iron from reception. Breakfast was very good too (toasts with tomato, with jam and butter, or with jamón). They also have a very nice terrace in the back perfect for having a Estrella Galicia in the afternoon. I would 100% recommend, many star hotels won't give such good service.

Big room with a bath. The bed was big and soft. Very clean. We went to the beach for something to eat but struggled to find a taxi to bring us home. The owner saved us and brought us home! This was very much d he went above and beyond what would normally be expected. Thank you very much.

Nothing

Conveniently located on coastal Camino (but we recommend you take litoral route from A Ramallosa). Basic room, but they have a restaurant with limited hours. Near other restaurants.

They seemed to have a foot soaking area, but it was not operational - would have been nice!

It was right on the coastal Camino trail. It was fine for a night, and there were restaurants in the area.

Their restaurant was not open for dinner, and it opens late for breakfast (for Camiño walkers). However, staff in restaurant served us breakfast before opening time!

This property delivers far above its cost. It is located above a restaurant so very convenient to get both breakfast and dinner for anybody walking Coastal Camino. Friendly and efficient staff.

Because the property is so affordable, a number of Camino pilgrims who normally stay in albergues stayed here. For some reason, they decided that 5 am is the perfect time to make as much noise as possible as they were packing for thee day ahead. Pretty annoying, but hopefully not something that happens all the time.
