Beautiful place in the mountains with the kind of warm, welcoming, and personal attention one used to get in the old days but is now so absent from the modern hotel machinery. We adored the place and the owners and cannot recommend it highly enough!

Excellent value for a hotel close to the Rute De Cares. While the rooms weren't fancy or anything like that, the service was excellent, and it was a great place to start the hike.

Great find!
A really good find. Convenient location for us. Good value for money for basic accommodation. Breakfast was provided (breads, jams and tomatos). The man in the restaurant made our stay! The staff mainly spoke spanish, but we managed to get by with our little spanish.

Great location for walks
Location is great. 5 minute walk from start of the gorge walk. 2 minute walk to the Bulnes Finicular (or walk). Behind the hotel is the road to the Naranjo de Bulnes viewpoint. Staff hardly speaks any English and I almost felt they were annoyed when a non Spanish speaker showed up (they had to get someone else, ect). Restaurant is basic but fine and well priced. Nice view when sitting outside.

It is all about the location
If you want a head-start to miss the crowds for the famous Cares George walk this is the place to stay. Just a couple of minutes walk from the start it is ideal. In all we stayed here three nights and also did the walk to Bulnes, which also starts just up the road, and also visited Covadonga from here. The breakfast and rooms are basic but the evening meals were nice as was the friendly manager.

Awesome hotel
The hotel is in such an awesome location - for the Ruta de Cares Walk, literally right there at the start of the walk. The staff here are the friendliest around, very welcoming, very helpful and make your stay awesome! The Cafe serves an awesome complimentary breakfast, and the meals and drinks there are wonderful!!!

Excellent location for hiking the Cares Gorge! We stayed 2 nights, arriving late the first night, but still before dinner (8:00 pm). Plenty of parking in front of and around hotel. Manolo, the manager, was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Dinner was very good and the prices were reasonable. Breakfast was sufficient to get us going on our hike. Showers in room were very good, strong and warm - which was great after a long day of hiking. Ate dinner in restaurant again on second night. If you are hiking the Cares Gorge, this is the place to stay!

Good location
300m to the start of the Ruta Cares and surrounded by towering peaks. Room was a good size, clean, and had dramatic views. No fridge, no aircon, minimal TV channels and WiFi kept timing out even if I was only a few feet from the router. We didn't expect any better, so these failings didn't really matter for 2 nights. The staff don't speak English and we don't really speak Spanish, but the menu had English translations, so we coped ok. The staff were very friendly and tried hard to please. The food tended towards rustic, and was well cooked and presented. Breakfast appeared basic, but included fresh orange juice, good coffee and lovely toasted bagguette. We enjoyed our stay.

What a location!
This friendly hotel met all our needs and was well placed for stunning walks in the area. Food prices and quality were very good considering the hotel has little competition. The hotelier was very willing, cheerful and despite is having little Spanish we managed to share a few chats together. The bedrooms and bathrooms are adequate and having a poor Wi fi signal and no phone signal because of the mountainous location was actually an unexpected relief.

Perfect hotel for walking the Cares Gorge Track
This hotel was perfect for what we needed. Rooms are small but the view from out room was amazing. The staff are awesome. Although they speak a little English and we unfortunately don't speak any Spanish we had no trouble communicating. Manolo was a great host. After walking the Cares Gorge track, the hotel was great to have a drink and meal in. The hotel is right at the start of the track which was ideal. The walk was stunning.

Friendly hotel by Cares Gorge
We were delighted to arrive at this hotel after three days walking hut to hut through the Picos mountains - badly in need of a shower and comfortable bed. We weren't disappointed! The staff were all very friendly - nothing was too much trouble. the room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The eating is 'Spanish bar food' with some Asturian specialities so nothing special but all cooked nicely. We returned for another night after three more days in the high mountains and we welcomed like old friends. Thanks.

The plus is its right at the start of the Cares Gorge trail-which is magnificent. The minus is its a meh hotel with hard beds and mediocre food. But... You didn't come here for the beds or food, you came for the spectacular views and hiking.

Excelente hotel junto la Ruta del Cares
Hotel al pie del inicio del camino de la ruta del Cares, excelente para desayunar y arrancar, y luego a la vuelta, justo ponerse a descansar al llegar con una cervezita 😊. También está justo al lado del funicular que une con el pueblo perdido de Asturias, Bulnes, sólo accesible a pie por ruta por montaña o por este funicular. Comentar también que tuvimos un pequeño lío con la reserva con esta aplicación, y agradecer de enorme manera al gerente del hotel la búsqueda de solución al respecto. Y también el cariño y amabilidad ofrecido por todos los empleados del hotel 🤗

El lugar es increíble y las vistas desde las habitaciones delanteras espectaculares. La carretera está justo delante, pero bueno, es normal en ese tipo de zonas. El hotel es muy básico pero está limpio y el personal es amable. Desayuno abundante. Repetiremos sin duda.

Hotel para los amantes de la montaña
Es un hotel modesto de montaña, ideal si quieres hacer la ruta del Cares o ir a Bulnes, esta situado a orillas del rio y al comienzo de ambas rutas. Es un hotel básico de dos estrellas, el desayuno suele estar compuesto de zumo, café, tostadas de pan con aceite y tomate o mantequilla y mermelada, también bollería, el personal muy amable, el restaurante con una carta pequeña con productos de la zona, poca fruta y pescado, bocadillos y raciones con precios normales. Buena opción si quieres hacer senderismo sin necesidad de coger el coche.
