Oxford Suites Santiago de Compostela garners praise for several aspects but receives mixed reviews regarding its breakfast offerings. The hotel does not include breakfast in its standard services and the options available are limited. Guests frequently mentioned that the café downstairs, which operates separately from the hotel, does not open until after 9 AM, posing inconvenience for early risers or those with tight schedules.
When breakfast is available, it consists mainly of simple items such as coffee and toast or cold sandwiches, rather than a more substantial selection including hot dishes like eggs or warm toast. This minimalistic approach left some guests wanting more variety and quality. Despite these shortcomings, guests noted that the hotel staff was helpful in directing them to nearby places where they could find more comprehensive breakfast options.
The overall atmosphere and cleanliness of the hotel were appreciated and the convenience of having a bar and restaurant on-site was noted, even if the breakfast offerings fell short of expectations.
