the bed was comfortable. everything was very clean. we had a nice view from the room. decent wifi. the shower had a good pressure and hot water. everything is very simple and old bur great value for money.
breakfast was plentiful, but mostly bread. you will get toast, cheese and pastries (2 pieces per person of each), coffee / tea, orange juice and some packed sweet breads. restaurant is good.

This is simple accommodation but great value for money in a stunning location for walking in the northern Picos de Europa. The menu of the day at 15€ is exceptional value.

Swimming pool. Breakfast. Lift. Good location. Big parking near the road.
The hostal was better than what we expected. Even if the personnel does not speak English we manage to understand and they helped with directions and map for our hike 😁The rooms and bathroom were really clean ( even the shared ones), and food was tasty.

Poncebos is a great starting point for treks in los Picos.
Poncebos is a great starting point for treks in los Picos. The funicular train up to Bulnes is here as is the path that goes up to Bulnes. You can also start the Cares gorge walk here. This is one of the most beautiful walks in Spain and accessible to all ages.
This hostel has an excellent location for hiking. The roads are packed with cars, so it's nice to wake up and already be near the trails. It is very comfortable with great rooms and beds. Bathrooms are shared, but there are plenty and they are very clean and spacious. Breakfast is provided and the restaurant serves lunches, tapas and dinner as well. There are buses scheduled from Arenas de Cabrales to Poncebos; the bus stop is a 5-10 min walk from the hostel depending on how much luggage you are carrying.
If you are planning to make a hike from Poncebos or just enjoy the beautiful mountains, this place is the best for your stay!
We hiked to Uriellu and returned tired to the very warm welcome and comfortable quiet place where we could rest and recover. And our car was in a safe place during our trip. And the dinner after the hike was amazing! Especially I recommend homemade cheesecake - it is not like ordinary cheesecakes and is 100 times tastier.
The Host is very friendly and attentive.
Wonderful, friendly host who was available at anytime, serving both at the front desk and in the restaurant. The restaurant was a relaxed and friendly place to eat, with a selection of traditional Spanish dishes. The location is fantastic, right beside the Cares Gorge and the funicular that takes you to Bulnes. The hotel is perfect for those wanting to walk in the mountains.
Perfect place for a hiking trip in Poncebos. Many trails start near the hostel, including the famous Ruta del Cares (the Cares Trail).
Also, the cable car to Bulnes is close (you could also do the hike as I did). The breakfast is good, not extraordinary. Worth the price. Very convenient parking in front. Good staff.
Beautiful view from the restaurant.

It was perfect for what we were doing - using it as a base for a couple of nights to go walking from. It was good value for money and the staff were super friendly. There’s a nice comfortable lounge for relaxing in and as the hotel is on a dead end road it was great to sit out and eat and drink after a days walking in disturbed with a fab view.
Splendid value, and great location. The owner was very nice and talkative, and advised us throughout our stay. The breakfast was nice and plentiful. The hotel has a small car park, but even if that's full, there was always some parking place to be found on the street, even in August (but depending on the hour, of course).
A wonderful place to stay for hiking the beautiful trails to Bulnes and Ruta del Cares. The rooms are clean, food is very good. You get a lot for a good price including a bottle of wine. I wonder why it is called a hostal, because actually it is a hotel. I really recommend this place.
The family who runs this small low-key hotel are wonderful. The rooms are small and simple, but the location is perfect for parking and day hiking and the hosts very warm. We also enjoyed the lunch of the day which was a great deal.
The location was incredible, a 5-10 minute walk from a couple beautiful trails in el parque de los picos. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. The staff was kind and helpful. I highly recommend hostal poncebos.
We keep coming back to Hotel Garganta since our first visit there in 2016, and that tells it all! It's like our second home. Can't wait to come back there next year again! Sending much love to Irene, Paco and Flippi!
The location was perfectly situated for hiking the ruta de cares, no need to drive. There was also 1 1/2 hr round trip hike right behind the hotel. A clean basic rustic hotel.
Lovely clean and comfortable budget hotel. Staff very friendly. The menu del dia at 15 euros was a great deal, great local comfort food at the end of a long days hike.
