Reviews of Hotel Garganta del Cares 1 stars

Great location for walking, especially the Cares gorge, Bulnes and Camerena

Evening meals were very, very basic

Awesome location and staff

The breakfast was not great, only industrial pastries, very white bread and cheap ham. Moreover everything was wrapped in individual plastic containers, they should start considering sustainability.

The Hotel is situated in the middle of the most stunning Pico’s de Europa. We were able to put our bikes in the garage of the hotel. It has got a nice outside area for drinks and food.

The hotel is quite basic and slightly dated.

The perfect location to explore the Cares Gorge. Rooms were clean and staff were great, breakfast was simple and suitable.

Dinner wasn't great, but given the remote location the food was suitable enough to fuel for hiking. Pillows were also pretty flat but that seems to be the norm across most hotels.

No frills, clean and very reasonably priced little hotel in an ideal position for hiking through Garganta del Cares or up to Bulnes and the central Picos. Parking here saves a lot of headache at this very popular destination and allows for an early startt or late return to avoid the worst of the crowds. The food served in the evening a la carte for hotel guests is cheap and decent.

Everything about this hotel is simple and fully satisfying. The floors, walls, and furniture all seem fairly new, and everything is kept spotlessly clean. The decor is simple and fitting. The food is simple, good, and filling. Best of all, the affable proprietor was ready with useful information and was happy to talk with me slowly and clearly, in simple terms, and to listen and respond cheerfully to my broken Spanish. And the setting is beyond magnificent - this is the last building before the national park.

Good breakfast for 6 Quiet room Best location for Ruta del Cares

Strange smell (maybe disinfectant) Old mattresses Very dark room on the back side kitchen hood was under the window, and it was noisy and smelly at dinner time (Nr 6)

Meals menu is excellent value.

Across the street from the river. Very reasonably priced.

Nothing

The location of this hotel was convenient to the hike we planned.

This property was very disappointing. The staff was very cold to us and we felt like we were imposing every time we asked a question. The website said there was a dining room, but their was no dining room or food available. We had to walk to the next hotel 1/2 mile away for our meals. The beds were hard and the sheets pilled.

Friendly staff and great location for the Cares Gorge walk. Good breakfast and nice dinner

A bit dated and the room is small

Friendly and helpful staff. Parking on sight. Nothing bad.

Clean comfy and close to hiking trails

The staff were very friendly and helpful, even with my limited Spanish. Very convenient to many of the trails in Pico de Europa.

It was a bit humid in the room.

Nice hotel, very close to the hiking trails. We stayed with our 3 month old baby, which was no problem at all. We were there outside the season during the week, so not many other guests, but the restaurant was still open for us (breakfast and dinner). We loved the bean stew! Very friendly staff, who even helped to comfort our baby when he was crying. Also handy that there's private parking, because it can get busy on weekends and during holidays.

Rooms were neat and clean. Staff was lovely: friendly and helpful. Location is perfect for the funicular to Bulnes and the Ruta de Cares.

Some noise from other guests but it was mostly quiet.

Good for walking and some private parking.

Excellent location for walks along the Ruta del Cares and for walks to Bulnes (or for using the Funicular). Had a lovely evening meal.

There was no bath in our room, although my booking said that there would be one.
