Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful experience at the hotel. My front-facing room on the 1st floor was amazing, with a lovely view especially from the loo. The room was large, old-fashioned with a high ceiling, and well-maintained. The view towards the valley and the cave was breathtaking. The service was very helpful and friendly, and the location was stunning next to the Covadonga Basilica and sanctuary. However, the dining experience was a bit average with limited choices and prices felt a bit high. Overall, a great stay.
My stay at the hotel was truly memorable. The rooms were beautifully designed with a balcony offering a splendid view of the cathedral. The high ceilings and old-fashioned charm added to the overall experience. However, some interactions with the staff were less than satisfactory, as they seemed a bit unhelpful at times. The location, nestled in a breathtaking site near the cathedral and shrine, was unforgettable despite occasional noise disturbances. The dining experience was good but a bit overpriced. On the bright side, the facilities were well-maintained, providing a comfortable stay overall.
