About
Pension Mar Azul
Pension Mar Azul occupies the fourth floor of a building on Praza de Galicia, putting you in the middle of Santiago de Compostela's daily life. With just six rooms, it's a modest, no-fuss base rather than a full-service hotel. The guest house is roughly 600 metres from Botafumeiro and within easy walking distance of the cathedral and the old town.
The rooms are heated, with flat-screen TVs, electric kettles and city views from the superior queen room. Wi-Fi is available throughout. Check-in runs from 15:30 to 22:00 and check-out from 07:00 to 11:00, with express and VIP check-in options. Luggage storage is available, and the building has a lift and disabled access.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Small scale — With only six rooms, this is a simple guest house, not a full-service hotel. Don't expect on-site dining or extensive facilities.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:30 to 22:00, which may be inconvenient if you arrive later or earlier.
- Value rated lower than other aspects — The value category scores 7.2, below rooms and service. Some guests found the price reasonable, but it's not the strongest point.
