Why this destination is a must-visit
Gijón is a lively coastal city in northern Spain, set on the Asturian coast between the Cantabrian Sea and green rolling hills. Known for its relaxed atmosphere, seafront promenades and strong local identity, it’s an excellent choice for families and couples looking for culture, nature and great food without the crowds of more traditional beach resorts.
Make sure you visit:
- Cimavilla, the old fishermen’s quarter, full of character, small bars and sea views.
- The Elogio del Horizonte sculpture, one of the city’s most iconic viewpoints.
- San Lorenzo Promenade, perfect for a long walk by the sea at any time of day.
- Jovellanos Birthplace Museum, ideal for understanding local history and culture.
- Gijón Marina, a pleasant area to stroll and enjoy the harbour atmosphere.
Beaches we think you’ll like:
- San Lorenzo Beach: long, urban and well-equipped, right next to the city centre.
- Poniente Beach: calmer waters, ideal for families with children.
- Arbeyal Beach: quieter and less touristy, popular with locals.
- Peñarrubia Beach: more natural and scenic, surrounded by cliffs.
Family-friendly activities:
- Visit the Atlantic Botanical Garden for an easy and educational outdoor plan.
- Explore the Aquarium of Gijón, combining fun and learning for all ages.
- Enjoy a ride along the coast on bike-friendly paths and promenades.
- Spend time in Isabel la Católica Park, with lakes, playgrounds and open spaces.
- Join a guided tour of Cimavilla adapted for families.
Make sure you try these local delicacies:

- Local cheeses such as Cabrales or Gamonéu.

El hotel está bien, sin más. Pasamos una noche solamente y no tengo nada malo que decir. El colchón era cómodo, lo único quizás la almohada demasiado alta ( pero es una opinión personal). El destino tenía de todo
Maybe the cleanliness of the bathroom
Quizás la limpieza del baño

El hotel no puede estar mejor situado para ver la ciudad , el personal es muy amable y el desayuno me ha parecido muy bueno. Las camas muy amplias y cómodas.
The bathrooms are a bit old-fashioned and the rooms could do with net curtains. They have curtains but they let no light through.
Los cuartos de baño están un poco anticuados y vendrían bien visillos en las habitaciones . Tienen cortinas pero ko dejan pasar nada de luz.

Lugar céntrico y con un personal amable .Cubre las necesidades del huésped sin problema
Room 103, besides hearing the street noise, only has one bedside table and the wardrobe is about 20 cm from the bed, making it difficult to open and access the bed.
La habitación 103 además de oír los ruidos de la calle no tiene más que una mesilla y el armario dista de la cama unos 20 cm por lo que es difícil su apertura y el acceso a la cama.

La ubicación del hotel es perfecta. La habitación limpia con un tamaño correcto para pasar un par de dias.
The dining room staff are not professional. On the first day the dining room wasn’t set up for breakfast on time. All the machines were turned off — bottle warmers, coffee machine, toaster... They had only put out the pastries and hadn’t even provided tongs to pick things up without touching them by hand. On the second day the same staff held a fairly loud conversation about what was on the TV and chose to play very loud Latin music.
El personal del comedor no es profesional. El primer día no estaba el comedor montado a la hora del desayuno. Todas las máquina apagadas, calientaleches. cafetera, tostadora.... Solo habían sacado la bollería, ni siquiera habían colocado pinzas para coger las cosas sin tocarlas con las manos. El segundo día el mismo personal mantuvo una conversación en un tono bastante alto acerca de que ponían en la tele y eligieron poner música latina bastante alta

La ubicación es excepcional, el desayuno para un hotel de tres estrellas está bien , una de las habitaciones extraordinaria de grande
One of the double rooms was very small, and there was a faint smell of food on the fourth floor — bearable but noticeable.
They came to clean every day, but despite leaving a "please clean" sign, they didn’t come (I think they assumed we put it up so as not to be disturbed).
Una de las habitaciones con cama de matrimonio era muy pequeña, olieres de comida en la planta cuatro soportable pero se olía.
Pasaban a limpiar todos los días sin embargo a pesar de dejar cartel de limpiar habitación no pasaron ( yo creo que se creían que lo poníamos para no molestar).

Hotel céntrico junto al ayuntamiento, playa San Lorenzo y zonas de tapeo.
Los estacionamientos por la zona son de pago.
El personal muy amable y agradable.
Pudimos alojarnos con nuestra mascota y acceder a todas las zonas salvo el comedor.
La habitación muy limpia y acogedora con todos los servicios salvo nevera.
Un gran hotel para repetir salvo el problema del estacionamiento.
That this hotel accepts pets but doesn’t have an area where we can be in the dining room with ours.
Que siendo un hotel que acepta mascotas, no tener una zona donde podamos estar en el comedor con ella .

Lo mejor de este hotel es su situación. En un barrio de mucho comercio,hostelería y ambiente.
I don't think the hotel deserves three stars; it's very basic in terms of decor. We went with friends and had three rooms, none of them the same—even though we all paid the same and they were on the same booking. Cleanliness was so-so and breakfast was adequate, lacking something hot like eggs. Fine for a couple of nights, but I wouldn't recommend it.
El hotel no creo que merezca tres estrellas, está muy justito respecto a decoración . Fuimos con amigos y tuvimos tres habitaciones y ninguna igual. A pesar que todos pagamos lo mismo y entraban todas en la misma reserva previa. Limpieza relativa y desayuno correcto ,faltando algo caliente como huevos. Para pasar un par de noches suficiente,pero no lo recomendaría.

La ubicación y el personal muy correctos y educados.
The dining room is very neglected; supplies aren't replenished and there isn't enough staff to attend to it.
El comedor está muy desatendido, falta de reposición en productos no hay personal suficiente para atenderlo.

Hotel sencillo pero cómodo, céntrico y muy limpio. El desayuno es pequeño pero rico. Por el precio, está muy bien
The bed was quite noisy and the soundproofing with other rooms wasn't the best.
La cama hacía bastante ruido y el aislamiento con otras habitaciones no era el mejor.

The room was a bit small and the furniture isn’t the latest, but for one night it was fine.
La habitación un poco pequeña y el mobiliario no está a la última pero para una noche estaba bien.
