Hotel Aroi Ponferrada

I have stayed At the Aroi Ponferrada hotel a couple of days ago, just for one night, on my way to Santiago de Compostela! The hotel is very nice, and has a great location! The rooms are small but have all one might need! Breakfast is algo good, with bread, scrambled eggs, jam, cheese, fruit. I want to thank Silvia, from the reception, who was really helpful when she found out my friend and I couldn’t find a hotel for staying the next night in Villafranca as all the hotels were booked because of a big event in town! She called a couple of hotels and was able to get us what I think was the last free room in town! I would definitely stay there again if I ever go back to Ponferrada!

“Decent clean hotel”

Room though small was very clean and didn’t look too scruffy. Had the usual amenities. Generally acceptable. But the location is not ideal if you are walking the camino. Better to stay somewhere nearer the Templar’s castle. On the corner of the street where this hotel is there is a little grocer… more

Room though small was very clean and didn’t look too scruffy. Had the usual amenities. Generally acceptable. But the location is not ideal if you are walking the camino. Better to stay somewhere nearer the Templar’s castle. On the corner of the street where this hotel is there is a little grocery shop selling dried meats etc. Female shopkeeper was reluctant to serve my husband and ranted at me for taking a photo of the dried meats presumably because she was coincidentally in the picture. Perhaps because we are Chinese. Bear that in mind if you think of patronising.

“It meets expectations”

We got a smaller room this stay then our previous stay which was not a good start. Having said that the room was clean and we had a good sleep in the bed. Next morning we had a lovely breakfast and were on our way to the next town.

“Comfortable and modern.”

my room was clean and comfortable. Modern. I only gave it three stars because there's no window looking out onto the street And I couldn't get the Wi-Fi in my room. There is a ceiling window that will add some ventilation and some light. It's a little tricky to figure out the control. I don't think… more

my room was clean and comfortable. Modern. I only gave it three stars because there's no window looking out onto the street And I couldn't get the Wi-Fi in my room. There is a ceiling window that will add some ventilation and some light. It's a little tricky to figure out the control. I don't think my TV turns on but I didn't try very hard. In all fairness I didn't let Anyone from the Hotel know about Wi-Fi or the TV because I could use data. Back to breakfast buffet which was quite nice. Staff was friendly and helpful. Location is great in the middle of the old town close to the castle and restaurants.
