Our travel advisors’ insider tip
58 euros separate the two hotels. The question here is less which hotel – and more whether it should be a suite.
The A Quinta da Auga Santiago de Compostela lists six categories, each with a stated size. The four rooms lie between 30 and 35 m²; the two suites – the Suite and the Grand Suite – measure 100 m² each. Choose the suite here and you have almost three times the space.
The Hotel Palacio del Carmen Santiago de Compostela lists seven categories, two of them suites, and stands in the Asén district. In return it credits your stay in Marriott Bonvoy and offers an early check-in or late check-out.
Our advice: if you arrive at the end of the Camino and want room to spread out, take one of the 100 m² suites. If a late check-out on your last day matters, the Hotel Palacio del Carmen Santiago de Compostela is the choice.

How long to stay: two nights. The old town and the cathedral fill one day; the second belongs to the pilgrims' mass, the markets or a trip to the coast at Finisterre.
At both hotels the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
When it is at its best: in May and June and in September, when it is mild and the pilgrims arrive at a calmer pace. Our recommendation for a first visit.
In July the city celebrates the feast of the Apostle on the 25th. Our recommendation for anyone who wants Santiago at full volume – and the green, quiet winter for anyone who wants the cathedral almost to themselves.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year just as in the busiest.
