This private hostel is designed for pilgrims on the French Camino de Santiago, but also welcomes tourists and travelers. It is located in the center of Villafranca, a city declared a Historic-Artistic Site. The building, declared a Site of Cultural Interest, dates back to the 17th century and was originally a school of the Company of Jesus. Its architectural design combines educational and religious functions.
I hope you have a pleasant stay at this historic hostel! 😊

The former monastery in the middle of Villa Franca del Birzo is now a hotel and hostel. It is an interesting place and a wonderful place to stay.
