Just superb!!
Imagine a great house placed on an incredible green valley, surrounded by wild horses and cows, with an spectacular view of the Picos de Europa, and 10 minutes away from the nicest asturian beaches. Don't expect luxury!! This is a country house rebuilted over an XVIII th Century ruin and furnished with some antiques and confortable beds.
The food is superb!!
I spent one week there with my family and can't wait to go back.

Staying at the Halcon Palace is like stepping back in time.

The hotel is beautifully situated on the side of a hill overlooking the valley and the Picos de Europa Mountains beyond. Truly spectacular!

The hotel is full of old world charm. It's furnished with antiques, the rooms are large and service excellent. Someone even turned down the beds for us each evening. The Benz family ensure that each person that stays there gets individual attention. The food is superb - the evening dinner is a particular bargain. We ate there each evening and were served with huge portions of delicious local fare.

Can't wait to return. Hope the weather's better next time though as it was too cold and wet to get into the beautiful swimming pool.

I have stayed at Halcon Palace about 6 times over the last 5 years. It is run by a Swiss man Leo Benz and his spanish wife. His brother is the chef. the location is rural which I like. No discos or other facilities within walking distance. The views are stunning and if you like walking and birdwatching as I do then it is an ideal location. The coast is about 12 miles away. The Picos de Europa mountains are within easy reach.

The hotel is family run to a very high standard. There is an excellent resturant with a wide variety of dishes from many parts of the World. The standard on cleanliness and general facilities are in my opinion the best I have experienced and superior to Hotels costing over twice the price.

Leo speaks English as well as four or five other European languages.

I cannot wait to return.
