Reconstruction of Hotel Moure

Not all roads lead to Rome. For a number of Santiago de Compostela pilgrims, the journey heads northwest to the Iberian Peninsula. After several weeks of abstinence and a visit to the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, one gladly rewards oneself with a warm shower and a soft bed in the homely environment of Hotel Moure. Initially, this four-story building, located in a row of historical buildings, served as a student boarding house, where the owners also lived on the upper floor. Subsequently, the building underwent several renovations to serve exclusively as a hotel with nineteen rooms and a shared living room with an atrium on the ground floor.
The first major intervention was lowering the main entrance from the street to allow barrier-free access to the rear area, which is illuminated by a newly created atrium. Operational and technical rooms (reception, restrooms, cloakroom, storage) are hidden within the walls behind vertical wooden paneling. Around the rear atrium, dining tables and a built-in sofa extend from three sides. Guests have access to a small kitchenette, so they feel at home and are eager to return.
