I visited the Costa Vella at Christmas time for a family reunion, and by the end of the week, the staff felt like family too. Powering the first-class personal service was Roberto, who is a lovely guy and, unsurprisingly, a regular marathon runner. Even on Christmas Eve, he was running around the place to make sure we were comfortable and... More

A 5-star experience at a VERY reasonably priced B&B. My wife and I booked a five day Christmas stay as it's our son's first Christmas day ever. Along came both sets of grandparents, an uncle, aunty and great-aunty. Coordinating the rooms, a cot, travel advice and even a buffet for Christmas Eve was all faultless. Easily handled before we got... More

This little gem has lots of charm, a great location, and a wonderfully accommodating staff. We were in Santiago to attend a wedding and needed help with the logistics of coordinating with other guests as well as transportation. Several staff members each went the extra mile for us....and most importantly, with a very gracious spirit. We took the attic room... More

We chose the Costa Vella here in Tripadvisor based on the warm reviews, and the truth is we couldn't be more satisfied with our experience. Other users point out the strong points of the hotel, to these we would add two more: one, the priceless self-edited non-commercial City Guide provided by the hotel in Spanish and English which provided us...

The best thing (but certainly not the only good thing) about the Costa Vella is the helpful and welcoming staff, who are helpful and accommodating every step of the way. The location is conveniently near the historic center, but away from the crowds. The hotel is in a recently restored old building tucked close to the old city walls, with... More

We loved this hotel and will stay here when we are in Santiago again. First, the staff, especially Roberto, were beyond helpful. They were gracious, informative, and went above and beyond in every way. The hotel is in a wonderfully restored old building. Our room was on the back of the hotel with glass walls/windows running the length of the... More

I can't say enough nice things about Hotel Costa Vella. The location is excellent, the room lovely, and we especially enjoyed the garden patio. However, what impressed us the most was the graciousness of all the staff at the hotel. The owners, Roberto and Jose, do an amazing job of providing hospitality with personal attention. We were made to feel... More

Cute all around. They have a fantastic bar-cafe with a beautiful garden. For hotel guests, there are also 2 tranquil sitting areas on the first and second floors, with great views of the cathedral. Our room was on the top floor, with angled ceilings and loads of charm. It was not spacious, but quite adequate. Our room's bed was a... More

Three weary girls post the Camino walk arrived at the hotel but we left revived, refreshed and totally relaxed. We were made to feel at home instantly. The friendly staff could not have been more helpful with everything from restaurant recommendations, laundry, Galician history and stories. We enjoyed a glass of wine in the lovely garden area which had such... More
