At the Pousada de Peregrinos San Amaro (just before the Meson de Pulpo mentioned in Brierley) we asked if there were any rooms nearby. For €30 for a double room with private bathroom we were picked up and taken to the Hotel San Martin only a few minutes away by car. There's a nice restaurant and we'll get a ride back in the morning. An option to the Albergue de Portela

Are you sure this is the correct San Amaro that's being referenced in the original post? This link goes to Quinta de San Amaro, a high end hotel in Meaño, about 25 minutes by car from Pontevedra (halfway between Pontevedra and O Grove). It's gorgeous there; we went for lunch one day (on a non-camino trip). The restaurant was excellent and they are very well-known for the horreo next to the swimming pool that has been redone as a room for lounging with huge windows to take in the views of the hillside vineyards.

No, I am not certain that this THE one. However it was the only place found through Google which used the name San Amaro and was in the general vacinity.

Looking at Google Maps and using Don Pulpo as a reference, which is very near A Pousada do Peregrino, it looks like there's a place not far called San Martin 2. Seems like a likely match for what the OP is describing, and very close by!

www.sanmartin2.com

(I think San Amaro in the title is referring to the name of the town/village where Don Pulpo is located rather than the name of the hotel.)

Buen Camino, all!

[But for a bit of post-camino luxury, one could do worse than staying at Quinta de San Amaro, visiting wineries and touring the coast (O Grove / Cambados / Isla de Arousa), enjoying local seafood and albarino wine!]
