Superb service. Central location. Beautiful inner garden. Spacious rooms, impeccable room service. Close proximity to the main Asturian seafood restaurants of the town. A gem in the gem country of Asturias. The country which had never succumbed to any other outside rule than the Romans themselves. A sprawling city of Gijon is within 20 minutes drive to the East. Chilly Biscay beaches are 2-4 km away. Good price to quality ratio. Quality breakfast compared to what one could typically expect from hotels on the coastline from Bilbao to Ribadeo.

Great Staff One of the Best Hotels I’ve Stayed In – More Like a Palace Than a Hotel
30 Sept 2025
One of the Best Hotels I’ve Stayed In – More Like a Palace Than a HotelI stayed at Palacio de Avilés Affiliated by Meliá and was genuinely impressed. From the moment I arrived, it felt more like staying in a historic palace than a typical hotel. The building is stunning, with beautiful architecture and a peaceful garden that adds to the charm.The location is excellent, right in the heart of Avilés, with restaurants, shops, and the park just steps away. It’s ideal for walking around and soaking up the atmosphere of the old town.My room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with a lovely view and thoughtful touches throughout. The food at the hotel was also very good, especially breakfast, which had a nice variety and was served in a relaxed setting.The staff were friendly and professional, and everything felt well looked after. This is easily one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in, and I’d absolutely stay again when visiting the area.

A 'must stay' hotel, in a lovely city. Great value for money.
28 Sept 2025
The Palacio de Aviles is in a beautifully restored, centuries old, palace, right in the centre of the old town of Aviles. The common rooms have lovely period furniture and paintings. Just walking down the corridors is a delight, as there is so much to discover. To the rear of the hotel is a very large private formal garden with a terrace where hotel residents can enjoy having a drink.The guest rooms are all quite spacious and comfortable, as you would expect from a hotel of this quality. Despite its proximity to the centre of the town, the whole hotel has an atmosphere of calm and tranquillity. It was spotlessly clean throughout.We didn't eat in the evening restaurant, but the breakfast was good, with various hot food options.The reception staff were all extremely helpful and friendly - they were more than happy to book a restaurant on our behalf and give advice as to places to visit.The location of the hotel couldn't be better. You literally walk out of the main door into the historic main square of Aviles.The hotel has its own spaces in the car park immediately underneath it - a lift takes you straight to reception. Tip - use sat-nav to get into the car park. Then take your ticket and bear around to the right - not down the ramp. This takes you to another barrier - use your newly acquired ticket and drive through to the hotel's own section. Surrender your ticket at the hotel reception and they will give you a different ticket when you need to leave. As you would expect, there is a charge, but it's worth paying for the convenience.This is a lovely hotel, in a very lovely city and when we went, provided excellent value for money.

Beautiful centrally located hotel
18 Feb 2025
Avilés is a lovely little town well worth visiting.The hotel was very central, right in the middle on the square.The parking area was down under the hotel....once you knew where to go it was no problem...but in the beginning a bit confusing.The lady at the reception desk was very professional but not over friendly.We had a fantastic room overlooking the gardens. it was very clean, bed was great. lovely bathroom. All good!We did not like the bar area...not very comfortabe. We ate elsewhere for dinner.
