    Nothing really.

    Family run hotel in an country house over 500 years old with lots of character. The traditional fireplace in the entrance and the old well in the restaurant are really very nice features; the Staff was polite and helpful. Rooms were cosy and clean. Restaurant serves traditional Galician food, highly recommended, a two course menu with water and dessert included for €30. Good value. Breakfast is included with the rooms too.

    Other than the breakfast chaos we couldn't fault it. It is a beautiful place with lovely staff.

    The beautiful breakfast room is separate from the even more splendid dining room and is a little small. If there are more than ten people in it gets a bit chaotic.

    Good fresh fruit and yoghurt along with the usual jamon and cheese.

    Nothing.

    This is a beautiful quaint former farm property exquisitely converted into a hotel. For us pilgrims, it was a wonderful treat to be pampered in. Decor, room size, temperature comfort, lovely fireplace at entry area. Then we had the staff. The absolute best in our entire 800 kms on El Camino. Carmen was delightful, enthusiastic, beautiful, engaged and so eager to make things not only easy for us but homey, welcome. And we couldn’t say enough about Eduardo. He runs Casa by Brandariz with excellent knowledge and tact. But then, he also has a huge heart. on the morning of our departure there was a torrential rain with lightning, thunder and all. He arranged for our taxi to take us back to the Camino and profusely reassured us that he would be ready to come to our rescue should this be necessary wherever we were. His openness and genuine care for our safety was what made this gentleman the best host that we had in these 38 days walking the Camino. I truly hope to return some day just for R&R.

    In 2 months of staying at places in Spain, I have not been in a place as nice as this. Every aspect is well thought-out, clean and very comfortable. The staff is exceptional.

    I'd really like not to have to do this bit, and it feels a little odd given the high overall rating of the property - but I pride myself on my honest and balanced reviewing so here goes. There was little guidance as to the norms of the property on arrival, such as where to get a drink etc. The hostess was showing some others around but somehow missed our tour. We did take the opportunity for an evening meal. The starter and dessert were both excellent, although the main course (the only one offered) consisted of a very dry chicken dish. I also think that in a guest house thirty euros per head for the menu, not including any drinks, is a little beyond expectations. The price was not advised in advance. Drinks were reasonable, for the most part, although here comes my biggest gripe. I'm a massive aficionado of Anis. They serve Mono, my favourite brand. During each trip to Spain I tend to buy a bottle or two to take home. This costs me approximately eight or nine euros per bottle. Imagine my shock on finding that my one glass, as seen on the bill, cost me eight euros - the price of a bottle! I understand that mark-ups are needed for a living to be made but for my mind, the offer at Casa Brandariz, although good value in terms of the accommodation, was considerably overpriced in terms of add-ons. Oh, and if you stay, best of luck negotiating the peculiarities of the serve yourself breakfast. The big round cheese is amazing though.

    The buildings which comprise this property are stunning. Old and yet beautifully maintained, if a little twee in their presentation in places. Beautiful gardens too. The location is fabulous, with great views over scenic countryside. Our room, which was the one positioned above the entrance patio of the hotel, was fine - spacious enough for the two of us. Good value for money, in terms of a place to stay, but see below. The bathroom was well equipped, although it was not always possible to run hot water in the shower.
