"Stopped for two nights with my husband on a motorbike trip to the Picos. We loved staying here. We had a beautiful balcony view looking out on to farm land and mountains and could hear the birds singing. So tranquil. Loved all the geranium window boxes. So pretty. Staff were very friendly and we got by with speaking English and a little Spanish! The accommodation was very clean and the beds very comfortable. We could have parked the bike in the garage as pre arranged but felt it was safe to leave the bike at the front of the hotel. Breakfast was delicious, not a cooked breakfast , apart from fried eggs and pancakes on one day but plenty of choice and delicious. The restaurant for an evening meal was in a separate building up a hill on the other side of the road. It was only open 1 of the two nights we were there but the quality of the food was excellent and generous portions. The hotel was a perfect position for exploring the Picos and we preferred the more tranquil spot rather than stopping in Potes. Found it a bit tricky to find the entrance to the hotel at first. Think cars had to park on roadside but we could park the bikes in front of the property which was excellent. Wish we'd booked another night. Would I stay again...Yes, definitely. Sad to leave ."

"Perfect spot for quiet, local village stay. Hiking out the door. Excellent food and hosts!"

"What a phenomenal location! Beautiful hotel at the foot of the Picos de Europa, steps from the cable cars! Clean, quiet, charming, family friendly. Worth the drive to get here, next time we will stay longer! "

"This out of the way Parador is perfect if you want a quiet stay with stunning views. It's an older property and some of the fixtures/fittings in the bathroom are tired but on the plus side - shower pressure was good and everything was very clean and we had a great nights sleep. The resturant served tasty local food - very nicely prepared and presented. The staff were attentive and friendly - we would visit again if in the area."

"Perfect for a 1 night stop over. Restaurants 10 mins walk away"

"Beautiful setting in a limestone gorge with a river flowing through it. Better than a white noise machine! There are hiking and mountaineering trails in the immediate vicinity. As a vegan, I appreciated that they included both a vegan and vegetarian option on the dinner menu. The thermal pools and the baths (balneario) were lovely. Don’t forget your bathing cap! "

"Great base to stay In the Picos Some new rooms Friendly and welcoming "

"Basic, and maybe what should be expected for the price, but very noisy (a recurring theme in Spanish hotels). ‘Free’ Wi-Fi didn’t work, when this was pointed out to the proprietor, he just shrugged. That’s alright then 😂. You have to keep a sense of humour."

"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!"
