Barceló Oviedo Cervantes

Not in the historic area of Oviedo, but only about a 5-10 minute walk to get there. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Big room, good AC, and fantastic shower. Probably our favorite hotel on our trip.

Nice hotel. Good location. Service was friendly. Parking lot is tight but manageable. Rooms were clean but the bathroom needs an update. Recommend it. Would come back.

This hotel is falsely advertised as a 5 star experience. If you’re looking for a solid 3 star hotel with decent rooms and acceptable service, then this is your spot. We came here for our honeymoon looking for luxury, and this place is FAR from it. The moment we walked in, we were met with a receptionist who was very unkind. A 20% discount code was incorrectly applied to my reservation by my credit card and he INSISTED angrily that we have to pay the difference. This was with knowing that we were on our honeymoon. I did ultimately pay the difference. A 5 star hotel would’ve AT LEAST offered a congratulations. He said nothing, didn’t apologize for the error, didn’t offer a glass of champagne or anything of that nature. It was a very inappropriate way to speak to any couple, especially one who is on a honeymoon. The rooms are NOT 5 star quality. They are basically DIY-ed. There are giant paint chips from floor to ceiling. There are scuff marks on other walls. The caulking in the bathroom is messy. The grouting and tiling is awful. Being in the hotel room made us SHOCKED that this was 5 stars. Throughout most of the day (and parts of the night) there was an extremely loud noise (HVAC? Plumbing?) that literally shook the entire room every 10 minutes or so. We disliked it so much, we couldn’t wait to leave. It truly dampened what should’ve been an amazing time for us. The parking they state on their instagram as “stylish.” No. It’s a regular underground lot that’s extremely narrow and requires a passenger to step out of the car and help navigate what should be a one way passageway. The service is useless. I e-mailed ahead asking for the hotel to make us a reservation at a restaurant in a specific area of Oviedo. They did not. They simply sent me a list of recommended places with corresponding phone numbers and left me to my own devices. Sure, it has a nice lobby and facade. But that’s all. The location is just okay. The service is not okay. The room is serviceable at best but can’t be slept in or relaxed in because of noise. I do not recommend this hotel. It is absolutely falsely advertised and a huge disappointment. We spent 2 weeks in Asturias and Basque Country in 5 star hotels and this was by far the worst.
