Hotel Reconquista

I have never been to an upper end hotel that had major reconstruction work going on for the entire day and into the evening. Most places close their doors during renovation and cease taking reservations, but not the Reconquista. We were in Oviedo where my wife had a medical procedure and needed to rest during the day, but the jackhammers and power tools went on until 7 or 8 pm, and started up before 8 a.m.

The hotel has a great location and working AC, but it feels like it got stuck somewhere between 1987 and a half-hearted attempt to update the place. After a long day we tried to find something to eat during the siesta. That’s basically impossible between 4 and 8 pm in this town. We literally had to negotiate our way to a bag of chips for the kid. Later that evening we ate at the hotel restaurant and ordered a fruit salad. What arrived was one lonely sliced apple on a plate. Not wrong, just kind of depressing. Breakfast the next morning was just as creative. Super limited. Definitely don’t come hungry. The rooms? Walls so thin you get a front row seat to your neighbors’ conversations and coughing. We also found someone else’s hair in the bathroom and there were way too few power outlets. Staff were friendly, but that doesn’t really save the experience. The hotel works if you just need a bed to sleep in — as long as you bring your own breakfast, earplugs and an extra socket or two.

People at the reception very nice and friendly, size of the room very comfortable, the air condition worked perfect, the breakfast was really good and the location close to everything walking distance. I would definitely go back.

very good breakfast. very kind staff and recepcion.

Great hotel, clean, Lovely staff, close to everything. Great views from our balcony . We will definitely recommend it 👍 walking distance to shops, bars, restaurants. The room was really big and comfortable bed . The only negative- parking slightly expensive, but safe

We had a lovely view across the bridge across to the mountains.
