Galicia, located in the northwestern corner of Spain, is a captivating tourist destination known for its rugged coastline, verdant landscapes, and rich cultural heritage. This region offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, historical landmarks, and vibrant local traditions. The dramatic Atlantic coastline, known as the Costa da Morte (Coast of Death), is dotted with fishing villages, stunning beaches, and ancient lighthouses, providing visitors with opportunities for scenic hikes and coastal exploration.
Galicia's most famous city, Santiago de Compostela, draws thousands of visitors annually as the final destination of the renowned Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. The city's UNESCO-listed old town is a maze of cobbled streets, historic buildings, and the awe-inspiring Cathedral of Santiago, a must-see architectural gem. Other notable cities like A Coruña and Vigo showcase Galicia's maritime heritage, with lively ports, seafood markets, and a mix of modern and traditional architecture.
The region is also home to several enchanting small towns and villages. Combarro, famous for its hórreos (stone granaries) along the shoreline, offers visitors a glimpse into Galicia's rural past, while the medieval town of Ribadavia is known for its well-preserved Jewish quarter and annual wine festival. Inland, the Ribeira Sacra region is a hidden gem with its terraced vineyards and ancient monasteries perched on the slopes of the Sil River gorge, ideal for wine lovers and nature enthusiasts alike.
Galicia’s lush green landscapes, often referred to as "Green Spain," are perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and birdwatching. The natural parks, including Fragas do Eume and Islas Cíes, offer pristine environments for nature lovers to explore. Visitors can also enjoy traditional Galician cuisine, including world-renowned seafood dishes like octopus (pulpo a la gallega), fresh shellfish, and empanadas, accompanied by the region's famous Albariño wines.

The domain HotelesGalicia.com was first registered in 2001, originally serving as a parked page listing the name for sale. By 2005, it had a new owner who used it to promote a list of hotels until 2010. After that, the domain was listed with Sedo, a domain parking company. In 2015, it was acquired by a Spanish company but remained listed for sale until 2019.
In 2019, the domain was purchased by Glasgow-based digital entrepreneur Tommy Butler. His vision for HotelesGalicia.com is to develop it into a comprehensive platform promoting hotels in Galicia and Santiago de Compostela, alongside local restaurants, accommodations, apartments, and points of interest in the region. This initiative aims to enhance visibility for local businesses and provide valuable resources for travelers exploring Galicia.
