Hotel Temple Ponferrada

This was the perfect place for us to stay after a long day of travel, ending with a late evening train arrival in Ponferrada from Madrid. It was within easy walking distance from the train station (even with backpacks and wheelie luggage). A completely charming hotel with fabulous staff and clean, comfortable rooms. It was also within easy walking distance to shop at the Decathlon store for last minute Camino needs (hiking poles, rain gear, etc.). Beautiful, well-maintained property!

The breakfast was excellent. However, as I hadnt paid for it in advance, when I tried to pay on leaving, the staff seemed confused about how to handle. They were very easy to work with and I thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

Plenty of character with a good central location. Secure underground car at the rear of the hotel.

Good location really just a little out of town but near the train station. Nice big room

Although the "medieval knights" theme was a bit over the top, the hotel provided everything we needed in the way of clean and comfortable beds for the night. Location near the railway station was good (we had an early train to catch in the morning), and it was an easy walk to the historic centre of Ponferrada.
