“Beautiful hotel. It reminded me of The Grand Budapest Hotel. The shortest of walks take you to the cave and to the basilica. There's not much else to do in the area, so we got there later in the day.”

“Great rooms, excellent location—just a few minutes walk to the basilica or the grotto below. To catch the bus shuttle up to Picos de Europa lakes, it’s a 5m walk down the road. Comfortable and well maintained rooms in a beautiful old hotel.”

“Covadonga is magical and so is this hotel: historic, friendly and directly adjacent to the shrine. Fun, cute small bar onsite and parking right by the entrance (but it’s first come first serve). During the off season it’s a great deal and not as...”

“The hotel was prime location. The hotel had big size rooms with a decent size bathroom for Spain. There was a restaurant on site but it had limited options (you also did not have many choices in restaurants in the area).”
