Hotel Altair | Best places to stay in Santiago de Compostela
"Traditionally Galician on the outside, inside this serene little boutique hotel has a Japanese-inspired design, creating a calm and welcoming place to retreat to after a busy day sightseeing.
Located on the edge of the historic centre, the helpful English-speaking staff serve an excellent breakfast, and will help you find just the right restaurant to hit in the evening. There’s also an inspirational library of art and travel books to peruse.
Located on a quiet, cobblestoned, mostly-residential street on the northern fringe of Santiago de Compostela’s historic centre, the Altair is a five-minute walk from the Cathedral, and ten minutes from the Abastos Market, the city’s foodie hub. It’s perfectly placed for exploring on foot, there are dozens of boutiques, bars and restaurants within 5- to 10-minutes’ walk.
It’s a good bet for couples, and there’s parking nearby at bargain rates, so a good option for motorists as well.

Teresa on reception was very helpful as were the breakfast staff. Breakfast was good quality fruit, bread and homemade jams. No complaints about the room. Nice use of stone and timber in the building.

first class hotel and staff. We were a family with three grown boys. Patricia was incredible taking care of us in the evening in the bar and at breakfast. Breakfast was special and served with love. Our room had a terrace and a real treat! A hidden gem in a busy city

By far one of the best hotel’s we’ve stayed in during our camino. After finishing our 11 day walk from porto,Altair hotel was such a lovely place to finally relax so glad we booked an extra 2 days. The staff are super friendly & make you feel really welcome. We had the room with a private terrace which was so nice to have the doors open on to the terrace. The breakfast is amazing all the hotels before had the usual breakfast frenzy waiting for the coffee machine but not at hotel Altair you are served at your table with a wonderful choice of fruit’s croissants toast meats & cheese & cereals great coffee & Santiago cake. If your scrolling review’s for other hotels in Santiago don’t waste your time. Stay here at hotel Altair I guarantee you wont be disappointed.
