Appropriate not its price, is a hotel with the basics, and so, one would expect a better cost-benefit ratio. Its location is very good as it allows easy access to the marina and the city center. It has parking and Wi-Fi.

We found this hotel excellent and well placed for getting around Gijon, Ovideo and surrounding areas. The staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms are lovely. It is a 10 min walk from the bus station and the old town. This was our second stay in Gijon and I chose a hotel with a swimming pool and gym. However,... More

Dear Sir, Thank you very much for your review. Unfortunatly, we have realised that the machine that heats the swimming pool was broken during your stay. This is already repared. Anyway, as you can read on a board in the wall of the swimming pool, according to the law, the temperature of the swimming can be max of 27ºc. We... More

I cannot honestly say at this point whether the hotel itself is terrible, but the treatment we have received thus far has been well below what I would consider acceptable from a 4 star hotel. I made a reservation online yesterday but immediately the transaction was accepted, I realised I had entered an incorrect date. I booked the date of... More

Perfect hotel to visit Gijon, Aviles and Oviedo. Friendly personnel everywhere in the hotel (reception, bar, dining room). Good information about visiting the city. Not far from the beach and a train station. Breakfast was excellent, big variety, fresh fruit, everything you can desire. Opening hours of the fitness and swimming pool are not so user friendly, they are closed... More

Despite getting lost in Gijon and taking rather too long to find the hotel (our fault!), once in our room we were really pleased. Lots of space, spotlessly clean, robes, slippers, great bathroom, tea- and coffee-making facilities, comfortable beds, good view over the city. When we couldn't get the hairdryer to work, the guy on reception came up to show... More

This hotel was ok. Your average hotel. Nothing too fancy about it. Great location if you want to be right next door to the train. Location within the city wasn't great. Not much going on around it. Although Gijon is pretty small so you can still walk everywhere from it. They were kind enough to serve us breakfast even though... More

I went to this hotel with a lot of prospects because of the other reviews. If I say the truth I am a bit disappointed. The checking at 23:30 PM was very slow. The man in the desk did not inform me about breakfast time, nor Internet access, nor about the hotel does not accept my miles Iberia card. My... More

We arrived by night trainhotel from Barcelona so this was perfect: just opposite the station, and the very friendly receptionist was prepared to check us in early once a room became available. Large parking area in front of hotel, so this could be a good option for those not wanting to drive in the city centre. However, the location does... More

This is a typical hotel of its type - modern, well staffed, very comfortable rooms, Location wise, if you arrive on the train, you cant be better off as the hotel is right outside the stiation.
