Spacious Apartment in the Heart of the Monumental District!
About this apartment rental
This apartment in a gorgeous stone house is located in the historic core of Santiago de Compostela (declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site), on a lovely pedestrian street just a 2 minute walk from the famous Cathedral of St. James. The house has been in the family for generations and has been carefully renovated in keeping with its original charm. This spacious apartment (45m2) is located on the first floor (no elevator but only 15 steps up) and consists of an all-new fully equipped eat-in kitchen with dining table for 4 people, bathroom including bathtub/shower, and a hallway with exposed stone work leading to the spacious living room / bedroom.

Follow the way of St. James to its final destination: the renowned pilgrimage site of the Catedral de Santiago. Wander the lively stone streets under arcades and through enchanting passageways, through beautiful parks and secluded cloisters, to discover the many wonders of the city. As you go for a stroll you can enjoy typical music of the region offered by musicians on the surrounding streets and plazas. An amazing array of restaurants, cafes, shops, bars, museums, markets are just outside the door!

Pasamos una semana tremenda en el apartamento en Santiago. Estaba bien ubicada, en la zona peatonal y cerca de la Catedral, el Mercado Abastos, los restaurantes, etc. El apartamento lo tenía todo; toallas, sábanas, detergente, champú, jabón, lavadora, café, etc. Estábamos muy cómodos y contentos durante la semana.
Lo único que nos molestaba un poco fue el ruido en la calle a las tres de la madrugada.

The apartment is great and the location is fantastic. This is probably the best location you can be in if you want to visit the old town with all it's grandeur. Conchi, the apartment manager, is very helpful and nice. The place was clean and nicely decorated with nice art on the walls. Very very good!!!!!

Very nice apartment in a wonderful location in this charming city. The apt. was just as described. The kitchen had everything we needed, as did the rest of the apt. Views quite interesting onto the street, although not too loud at night. My only issue was that we had a bit of a wait to meet up with our host to be let into the apt. our train was late and she was also late, so a very long day. Overall very nice stay and I would rent again !!!

Well appointed and comfortable apartment in the old city , only a few mins walk from the Cathedral and numerous bars and restaurants. A wonderful place to stay and soak up the fabulous atmosphere of Santiago. Have the windows open to let in the sound of the city , but closed with the double glazing gave almost total silence. Would definitely stay there again.

My husband and I rented the apartment for a week. It was the perfect size for us and had everything we needed. Great location in the old town close to everything we needed. Sonia was a great host and responded quickly to any questions we had. Highly recommend it.

It is a spectacular location, but if you are bothered by noise, it can get loud at two to five am. We'd go back in a heartbeat.

The flat is very clean and modern with a well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed being in the heart of the old town, close to all the sights and convenient for the airport bus. The lovely street is pedestrianised, but the pilgrims are rather noisy late at night so bring earplugs. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you. Ellen and Brian

Alojamiento estupendo en el centro de Santiago
El apartamento está muy bien y muy equipado. Dispone de una cocina grande que cuenta con productos para lavar los patos y para la lavadora, así como elementos básicos como azúcar y café. La habitación principal es dormitorio y salón con televisión. Esta estancia da a la calle y por las noches hay un poco de ruido.
Muy limpio y equipado con mantas y toallas.
También cabe reseñar que el apartamento está muy cerca de la catedral de Santiago y de las calles llenas de restaurantes y bares.

Ideal apartamento
Muy buen apartamento, en buen estado, con todos los utensilios de cocina que se necesitan, en el mismo centro de la ciudad y a pocos metros de la Catedral.
Buena limpieza y confort, con A.A. Excelente trato personal.
Como negativo, quizás que haya poco espacio en el lavabo para poner los utensilios del neceser etc.

such a darling little apartment right on Rua Nova, which appears to be a hot spot, come morning, come night. The apartment had everything we needed. A complete kitchen (no dishwasher, but we didn't need one), including a washing machine and drying rack. We were surprised that our laundry dried so quickly, because it was rainy and cool. However, it dried quite nicely. The living/bedroom combo worked out fine, because it was just the two of us. Everything was very nice. We had a view of the street from the living area. The street was delightful. We felt like we were living in Santiago. Restaurants/Bars all along the street, as well as delightful little boutiques. We were walking distance to all of Old Town and the new area, as well. Parks, etc., were everywhere. The biggest kuddo was the distance to the Cathedral. An easy walk, which we did daily. Restaurants galore, within an easy walk. We even saw a parade on Rua Nova...The Feast of Corpus Christi came from the Cathedral right down the street. We were just ready to come in and found ourselves standing watching the parade go by. We felt like we were Santiaogans.
Thanks so much for a wonderful stay. We will recommend it to anyone we know who is coming to Santiago. My husband walked 500 miles on the Camino and I met him there. For those so inclined, the Camino is a blessing...every single mile. For those not, Santiago is a blessing as well. The energy of the millions of pilgrims who have walked those stone streets for over one thousand years echoes to you as you walk each step.

I very much enjoyed my stay at this apartment in Santiago. The apartment was charming, spacious and very clean. It is located on a pedestrian street and it can get quite noisy during the night. I am a light sleeper but the frivolity didn't keep me awake. It might be a little different in the summer if the windows are open. The city is wonderful and the apartment is right in the center of it all. It's only a 4 or 5 minute walk to the cathedral. The washer is a great addition for a traveler who want to carry light.

The apartment in this beautiful stone house is very clean, spacious, charming, and well equipped - everything one could hope for in a home away from home. It is right in the center of the old town of Santiago, really just a few steps from the Cathedral. Everything is close by: excellent public transportation to the airport; an array of cafes and restaurants; shops for all the daily necessities as well as the fun non-essentials; streets that invite you to meander and explore.
Sonia, the host, who met us at the apartment with the key, was most gracious and welcoming and proved to be very helpful throughout our stay.
We loved our time in Santiago de Compostela and wouldn't think twice about staying in Sonia's Studio Apartment again!
