The Montemar is a fairly typical seaside hotel. The rooms are no frills, but big enough, clean and tidy. there's no air conditioning though, but this part of Spain rarely gets excessively hot. The hotel is close enough to the centre of Llanes, and everywhere is easily walkable. There's a large car park too. Trains and buses are within easy reach. There's plenty to see in Asutrias, with loads of excellent beaches, so you won't be spending too much time in the hotel, but it's fine for sleeping. A bit of modernisation to the bathrooms wouldn't be amiss.

We stayed at Hotel Montemar for 4 nights as part of a package booked with Brittany Ferries which we considered to be very good value.
We were generally happy with the hotel. There were a few minor niggles - no hair dryer and no safe. The room was a little bit too warm and stuffy - the heating was on and there was no air conditioning. There was a large window you could open wide, but no smaller window to open just to let in air. We are not sure how bearable it would be in high summer. The plumbing was a bit quirky too, and there were only two electric sockets. The walls were not that thick, especially when the water in shower in the room next door was thumping through the pipes. Finally the rooms lacked character but we did not expect much character in a modern building.
But those were minor points. The room was clean, We slept extremely well as the beds were comfy . Our room was at the side of the building, looking out towards the sea, and there was no noise from the quiet side street. There was free Wifi. The public areas of the hotel were also clean and well cared for. The staff were very frendly and helpful. Breakfast was fine - typical Spanish serve-yourseff selection of cold meat, cheese, tomatoes, fruit, bread, toast, cakes, coffee and juice. There was a cafeteria which sold a small range of reasonably priced snacks, cooked to order. There's also a bar and two lounge areas, one with a wide screen TV, There was a free car park too, something you don't find too often in Spain. The location was great - just a 5 minute walk for the beach and the shops and restuarants in the centre of the town. We loved the town too, and enjoyed being so close to the centre.
We plan to go back to Llanes and would stay at the Hotel Montemar again.

This hotel is comfortable, the staff friendly and helpful, situated where it is you can stroll to the town centre in five minutes, or you can stroll down to the harbour in a few minutes more. Peaceful location some rooms have views of picos de europa plus sea views. night porter and bar available for late drinks. Cafeteria does basic snacks and light bites.
