Editorial
Hotel overview
Housed within a converted 17th-century palace, this 5-star hotel offers an elegant and tranquil stay in the heart of Avilés. The hotel blends historical charm with modern comforts, featuring traditionally styled rooms equipped with air conditioning and free Wi-Fi. Guests can relish fine dining at La Capilla – Palacio de Avilés, noted for its quality cuisine and sophisticated atmosphere.
Positioned just a short walk from the Avilés/Apdro train station and overlooking Ferrera Park, the location provides swift access to key attractions such as the Oscar Niemeyer International Cultural Centre and nearby beaches including Platja de Xagó and Salinas Beach. The property also caters well to weddings and events, supported by dedicated facilities and attentive service. Business travelers benefit from amenities like a business center and laundry service, while the fitness center and hot tub add to guest options for relaxation and wellness.
While no airport shuttle service is offered, Asturias Airport is reachable within a 20-minute drive. Parking is available on-site for an additional fee, though public transport and walking make exploring Avilés convenient and hassle-free. The hotel’s quiet, smoke-free environment and reliable room service contribute to a comfortable, stress-free experience unique to this historic setting.

What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Lovely hotel in a lovely part of the city. Spacious, good service, lots of character, good value for money. Only one side of the bed had a spare mains socket and the bedside light switch actually powers on/off the socket used by the bedside light on both sides of the bed so when my wife turned off her light my phone stopped charging. However, I'd stay there again and we enjoyed the stay.”
“Honestly, I’m truly happy because I wasn’t expecting such a high level of care and service. Miguel and his colleague on March 25th were incredibly kind to me and my colleagues. They welcomed us with genuine smiles and a warm attitude that made us feel immediately comfortable something we deeply appreciated. The hotel itself is wonderful: the room was spotless, and the central location makes everything so easy and convenient. When I arrived, my room wasn’t ready, but what touched me the most was the special attention they gave me. They went out of their way with a thoughtful gesture offering me a small cake and a large bottle of water. It may seem simple, but it truly meant a lot and showed how much they care about their guests. This hotel doesn’t just offer great service, it offers genuine kindness. It truly deserves its 5 stars. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team. Gracias!!! Guest room 101”
