perfect location for hiking the ruta del cares (there are other two hikes that start near the hotel).
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 wonderful hotel is situated in the mountains, with stunning views and walks. The owner and staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was out of this world! Cordon Blue standard in a country inn!
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.
The last hotel before the Ruta des Cares walk begins so it's very convenient. Hotel has own reserved parking. Very important if it's a busy day and you arrive after 11am and no street parking available. Nice bar area and superb egg bacon and chips after the long gorge walk which is truly spectacular and not to be missed. Friendly staff. Great mountain view from our room overlooking the road. Comfy bed.
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.
Amazing location ans view!! So close to the trail head for the main hike :) we had free parking in the street and had wifi! Only worked for half our trip but to have any service at all in the mountains was an unexpected treat. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Also a very cute gift shop in the hotel thats very affordable for last minute hiking gear or souveneirs.
The location for hiking the trails is perfect, the setting for the hotel breath taking.
The property is called a hostal but we found it more like a 3 star hotel with our on suite room.
The staff were amazing, the food local and so fresh and amazing value, I would recommend this property to anyone looking to stay in the area.
We had a lovely time at the hotel. The staff are all so friendly, amazing views and right at the start of the Ruta Del Cares which was perfect for us as we planned to do this hike (any meant not needing to worry about finding a place to park). The restaurant in the hotel also had great food which was a bonus!
Great location for hiking in the park. Very friendly and helpful staff. There is a parking at the property. Restaurant below the hotel with nice food and breakfast in the morning. Close to funicular and start of trail for Bulnes and for the gorge.
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 hotel is well situated in Poncebos at the start of the hiking trails. It's possible to leave the car. The hotel is really clean and the staff is very nice. The food is good and inexpensive.
Excellent breakfast and evening meals. Perfect location to walk the Rutas del Cares as the hotel is located at the start of the trail. Very comfy beds. Piping hot water in the shower.
