Location on the Camino toward the end of town but great for starting off your morning. Beds were very comfortable. The couple were very nice and laundry was washed dried and followed for 6 euro.

The town is full of historic buildings and sites, and the surrounding area is stunning and interesting. Being a significant stop on the El Camino Santigo adds to vibrancy. The viticulture and grape industry is beautiful in the surrounding region, and in a very short distance you can be lost in a myriad of very old rural villages.

Villafranca del Bierzo is an amazing town, full of history and with beautiful historic buildings. It is truly an enchanted medieval town in the path of the french Camino de Santiago. We arrived for the town’s celebration of their patron: “El Cristo de la Esperanza”. The “Ayuntamiento” organized a lot of activities, a fair, concerts until late night, wine tasting and tapas. It was memorable. The town is in the UNESCO list of historic places. The Church of Santiago with Las Puertas del Perdon, the church of San Nicolas, La Colegiata, the church of San Francisco have been built centuries ago and are witnesses of the history of the town. These buildings are artistic representations of other times and tell you about the glorious past of Villafranca del Bierzo and its vibrant present. The food is delicious.

Good central location and small terrace with view to a church on the hill above. Compact apartment well-equipped and comfortable. Parking is not easy nearby but there’s plenty up near the Tourist Office. The host was friendly and was at the apartment within a few minutes of phoning him when we arrived.

We spent only one night in Villafranca as we were walking the Camino de Santiago. Nestled between mountains, this is definitely one of the most beautiful towns we passed through, and there were many lovely ones. Points of interest include La Puerta del Perdón and Plaza Mayor. Puerta del Perdón Restaurant served us one of the best meals we had on our entire trip. Villafranca is in the famous Bierzo wine region, so don't miss trying the wonderful wines!

Wonderful small village with a lot of history and points of interest for those interested in culture, history and religion. It has a castle, several palaces, churches and monasteries from 12-16th century.
Take the chance to enjoy the wine with the designation of origin of Villafranca!

I am a pilgrim walking along Camino de Santiago.
I am a pilgrim walking along Camino de Santiago. Camino Santiago is going through Villafranco-del-Bierzo. Yo can have rest and good meal at any cafe or restaurant here. They are always ready for pilgrims. The town has special signs for those who walks along Camino, so yes, it is easy to walk around. There are many churches there, a castle and a very beautiful garden which dates back to the 17th century.

Although the lodging is outside the historic center, it is very convenient, especially if you are traveling towards Lugo, since the bus stop is just a few steps from the hostel. On the other hand the rooms and bathroom are clean and in good condition. The breakfast is very good, to start a day in this small town! Overall I really enjoyed my stay in this area. The historic center is only a 5 or 6 minute walk away and very close to the hotel. Also, if it is a hot day, there is a spa less than 5 minutes away.
This was an absolutely lovely hotel. The room was loaded with charm, with wood beams and stone walls. It had a little balcony with a table and chairs to sit out on.
The manager was excellent...super helpful. We told him we would be leaving early the next day, and since our rate included breakfast, he brought us up a tray in the evening that had juice, cake, little toasts with butter and jam, and a thermos full of coffee ( it was still quite warm the next morning!).
This was a gem of a place!
This hotel was excellent. It is at the top of the village and on the Camino path. The owner was very hospitable and made sure we had everything we needed. Dinner was superb. I wasn’t expecting fine dining! Breakfast was also great. This was the only time on the Camino that I needed the alarm to wake me up, do the beds must have been very comfortable. I would have liked to have a ‘rest day’ here.
The room was tidy, cozy and very well equiped.
The hotel is on top of a hill so the landscape is beautiful.
The owner made me feel super confortable, I enjoyed the conversation and the atmosphere of such a special place.
I am really looking forward to come back.
The location is very convenient, at the center of Villafranca del Bierzo, still nearby parking was available in the street. The rooms are large and functional. There was no breakfast served in the hostal but there are some nearby restaurants open in the morning.
Heaven on earth. It is like a resort. Juan, the host, is the kindest and hardest working hospitalero on the Camino.
Absolutely incredible. The accommodations, atmosphere, food, wine from his family vineyard
This is a must-experience.
Beautiful hotel in the center of town. Spacious, clean room with very comfortable beds. Staff made an excellent recommendation for dinner. Delicious breakfast buffet to get our day started and hotel was very close to the trail.
I stayed here while I was walking the Camino de Santiago from France. Alex, the hotel owner, was super accommodating and such a pleasure to interact with. He was honest and had my best interest as a traveler and pilgrim.
Easy to find. Super clean. Big bright room and bathroom. Lady working there was lovely. No food but gorgeous meal in restaurant at bottom of the street. Very handy to Camino route.
I'm so pleased I stayed in this hotel.
Everything about this hotel is excellent- from the location, to the attentive staff, to the clean and fully equipped rooms, a fantastic bath and then an interesting gift shop. I will be back!
It was more like staying at a hotel than a hostel, the facilities were that good. The hosts were so kind and the food at the restaurant was out of this world. It truly made our Camino.
