Hotel Carlos 96

Day 2 of our Camino brought us to Melide which is a decent sized town. Hotel is well situated on the side of the Main Street. It was very busy, primarily I would imagine with ‘pilgrims’ such as ourselves. Room was quite modern with air conditioning ,tv, phone etc. Very decent bathroom with good towels, hot shower and essential soaps/ shampoo etc. We did not eat in the restaurant that night as the town is very well served with a good selection of eateries. When we returned the bar area was very busy with local patrons. They also served dinner and seemed to have a big crowd booked in. Breakfast on following morning was really good, excellent selection of cereals, juices, bacon/eggs together with cold meats/ fruit etc. Overall a very pleasant stop on our walk.

Fabulous amenities and good location with excellent service. Thank you Luis you make a great cuppa and serve a first class brandy. The evening meal and breakfast were delicious. Made use of the laundry and there is a massage service for the Camino walkers payable locally. Rooms are clean and bed comfortable.

We arrived after a very wet Camino walk and were very grateful that our room was ready even though it was quite early in the day. The room is large with an enclosed balcony area which was very useful. The restaurant is incredible! Menu of the day was offered at lunchtime at €13 and was nothing like the pilgrim menus usually offered. We both had two different dishes and everything was perfect. We then had a different nighttime menu of the day for dinner, again every dish was wonderful with the owner taking a personal interest in your opinions of the good. Breakfast was also brilliant, a good variety and everything fresh. The family who run this place are so nice, thank you for having us! Would definitely return.

El hotel está muy bien, limpio, comodo y habitaciónes muy amplias… la verdad he estado en hoteles de 4 estrellas de inferior calidad, y para mi, lo más importante, el trato del personal, inmejorable, atentos en todo momento…. Si quiero hacer una reseña del comedor del hotel, simplemente increíble, muy buen trato , muy buena cocina y unos precios asequibles, no hay que buscar mucho….. sin duda un buen hotel y restaurante, para repetir.

The hotel is just a bit off of the Camino but is easy to find as it is on the main street. Our accommodations were booked by our Camino Tour operator and included dinner and breakfast. Our room was quite large and comfortable, and hot water for a shower after a very rainy walk. Meals were filling (large breakfast buffet) in a large busy dining room that caters to the Camino pilgrims, so service, while friendly and efficient, can feel a bit impersonal and rushed. We saw several pilgrims using the handy laundry machines on offer.

Mi marido y yo hicimos aquí una parada haciendo el camino de Santiago. Nos alojamos con nuestra mascota , y nos llevamos una grata sorpresa. Es un hotel de una estrella, pero le daríamos alguna más. Está ubicado cerca del centro. Habitaciones amplias, limpias y cómodas. Desayuno muy completo y variado. Si volvemos por Melide, para repetir. Nos hemos sentido muy cómodos en este hotel. Gracias por todo.
