Hotel Bruselas

Arrived at this hotel after a long walk. The hotel frontage looked less than inviting - very dated. The receptionist was less than friendly. The reception room looked like a taxi waiting room, lots of clutter. Our room was recently redecorated with a new bathroom. What they hadn't done was invest in air-conditioning, so we had a choice of suffercating or being kept awake by the main road beneath. Neither had they invested in soundproofing, so we could hear all the noise from downstairs - the taxi waiting room had become a card playing and watching football den. The beds were comfortable and clean, though. The meagre breakfast was doled out by two ladies, neither of which wanted to engage. We had to queue to be given our rations of bread and coffee. The food was low quality and no comfortable chairs to sit on.

+ Very comfortable bed + cleaning + Modern bathroom featuring a glass shower screen and a rainfall shower head

Lovely stay and good value

Clean, new furnitures, baths and good vives

Hotel Bruselas was one of the highlights of our Camino. When we arrived, we were greeted by Marisa, who welcomed us and made us feel comfortable from the moment we met her. The hotel is immaculate and had everything we needed, including a delicious continental breakfast. What made this place so special though was the warmth of the very special host-- this sort of human touch was one of the reasons we walked the Camino-- and we found it at Hotel Bruselas in the beautiful town of A Guarda. Thank you Marisa, for making our Camino even more special. We hope that Santiago sends you many more pilgrims! Mil gracias!
