“Nice place but there is room for improvement”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 August 2011

This property is located not too far from the city center (about 20 minutes walking) but right across a train station and, currently, a construction site. As a consequence, right now it is very loud, especially if you have a room facing the construction. Rooms are noisy inside anyway and you can hear every time someone shuts a door nearby. Other than noise, no big complaints. Rooms are very spacious and the bathroom itself was ginormous, especially for European standards. The bed was comfortable and the internet worked fine but it wasn't wi-fi; you need an ethernet cable to connect, which means only one computer online at a time. Staff was nice and they had a good breakfast in the cafeteria. Also, beware of parking. It's 9 EUR per night unless you can find street parking around (we didn't).

Room Tip: Away from the construction. It gets loud!

“Very modern”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 April 2011

person found this review helpful

I stayed here during a business visit to Oviedo. This hotel was recommended to me by a Spanish colleague. The hotel is about 30 km from Oviedo, however, if you have a car then I would suggest staying here. The room was nice and big. Breakfast was great and the personal in hotel were very nice. The centre is around 15 minutes by foot. I will stay here again.

“Good Value - Questionable location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 April 2011

The rate is good value for a clean and good sized room. Facilities are modern and the staff are pleasant, if not particularly friendly.

Extra for breakfast (11.58 Euros) but the food was to a high standard. Good 2 course evening meal with drinks for a much more reasonable rate.

Location was good for the company I was visiting on business, but perhaps not the best if in Gijon for a romantic weekend with the wife. The view of the station car park out the front didn’t endear itself to me either. Nor did the sound of traffic if you opened the window.

Free internet which made a nice change.

“Can I rate this hotel at 11?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2010

I chose this hotel becuase it was easy to locate from the autovia (roadworks diversions made it difficult but that should not be permanent).
This was a clean comfortable hotel with helpful staff but what made it SUPERB was the restaurnat - Try the Austurain food and service. I drove from Bilbao for business but it would have been worth the drive for the Restaurant - not what I expect from a modern hotel - but marvelous!

“This hotel is a bit too far from the main...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 July 2010 via mobile

This hotel is a bit too far from the main tourist areas to make it attractive for recreational visitors. And there is very little else in the neighborhood. But it is fine for business travelers.

The air conditioning in our room did not work. We advised reception expecting that it would be fixed by the following night or we would be moved. Neither happened.

Despite the wifi logo being prominently displayed on the hotel website there is no wifi. But guests can connect laptops with Ethernet.

The restaurant is not open every day.

The pool is quite small. It is good enough for relaxing in but not much good for swimming. The gym is spacious and there are separate male and female saunas.

Staff seemed pained by any questions or requests and made me feel like I was bothering them.
