  : Great location, in the quiet and charming town of Las Caldas, surrounded by mountains and hiking paths, but also close to Oviedo (main city in the area), with a bus stop just by the hotel and merely a 20 minute ride from the city. Perfect combination of peace and nature to decompress and relax, with accessibility to a bigger town, airport, train station, etc. Beautiful buildings for this complex, keeping part of the original architecture. Big facilities with pretty much everything you might need. Gardens around the buildings are fantastic for a peaceful walk and events can be hosted there. Outstanding gym with all sorts of stations, weights, cardio equipment, etc. One of the best assets of this place. Spa is really good. Jacuzzis, two saunas (90 and 70 degrees celsius), Turkish bath, hot-cold pools, etc. Health and wellness center offers lots of options in terms of treatments, massages, etc. Interior and exterior swimming pools. Most of the spa is accessible only by booking in advance, so doesn't get crowded. It has two restaurants (one a bit more upscale, the other one a more regular one) and a cafeteria. Tried the "upscale" one and found pretty good food and service. Breakfast buffet was really complete and good quality, in a beautiful space called "Mirrors room". Cafeteria works well for a snack and has a good menu to eat outside restaurant hours. It has two main lounges with plenty of seating for gatherings, reading or to play pool. All the different buildings in the complex are well connected by corridors and an over-road bridge, short walks from one area to the other. The suite is spacious, comfy and had nice views to a hill just by the hotel. Good AC in the room. Ok amenities. Extra ones on demand. Good bathroom, well equipped.
  : - Room was fairly outdated. Old and stained sofa, old tables and chairs. Comfy enough but not in good shape and with clear signs of some of the fun previous guests had... It was the only thing that didn't feel like the type of hotel you were booking there. - Empty mini-bar, just water in there. Nespresso-type coffee machine in the room but once I used it I never got more capsules for another day. - No ventilation in the corridors, really hot in there some days. Thin walls, you could hear your neighbours loud and clear at times. - Breakfast had to be book in advance. Not a problem for an early bird like myself, but having to set a time to wake up and have breakfast doesn't necessarily mesh well with the relax and disconnection from routine and stress you look for in a hotel like that.

  : Nice (big and modern) spa facilities and yet they have managed to keep some old architectural gems intact. Breakfast and room service offered plenty of tasty options.
  : Not too much free parking around the hotel.
