It may be blasphemy to some, but you can visit St. James' tomb, marvel at the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, without having to walk the Camino.
The Parador de Santiago de Compostela is one of the oldest and most luxurious hotels in Spain. It is in the Plaza del Obradoiro next to the Cathedral. It began as a Royal Hospital with the Catholic Monarchs to offer them shelter and today it’s known as Hostal dos Reis Católicos.
It is absolutely gorgeous. The photo on the front of the car is the view from my room.
The breakfast is stunning because it is served in a royal hall. No matter how late you stay up celebrating the night before, make sure you make it to the breakfast buffet.
An elegant dinner is served downstairs adjacent to the cellar. A beautiful experience, second only to the breakfast.
If you love Spain, become an Amigo de Paradores. It is a free membership, and you get points and perks along the way, while staying in palaces and old monasteries while you travel through Spain.
Book on the Paradores' official website to make sure breakfast is included.
