Posada El Hoyal

My partner and I stayed in Room 10 for 5 nights as part of our motorcycle trip to the Picos and Cantabrian Mountains. What a superb find, would not hesitate to book and stay again. We arrived around 8pm from the Brittany Ferry Santander. Pleasant and friendly arrival and checked into a spotless Room 10. I've seen other reviews stating small rooms, OK so not the largest but completely adequate and acceptable and freshly refurbished and spotlessly clean and well maintained. Good comfortable bed and plenty of hot water. We decided to eat at the Posada on day 1 as we'd just arrived and didn't fancy a ride of 10km back into Potes. Well what a great call. A superb menu, lots of choice and delicious food. I'm a foodie and picky. They use really good raw ingredients and they treat them with respect. I'll post some photos. We found the food so good that we ended up eating there 5 times. We had superb local red wine (Angel) and ate 2/3 courses for 2 each night including the Filet Steak which was delicious and amongst the best quality meat and cooking I can recall for many months. Total restaurant bill was €350 for 5 nights dinner and drinks for 2. Amazing. Only real single downside for us was that we both love good coffee in the morning and first breakfast the lady on duty could not offer coffees from the machine, only some form of filter coffee which we found very poor. So following days we decided to ride out early and find a cafe for coffee. Great location for touring. 10km outside Potes so you'll need to ride in. The Pool was lovely and in the evening sunshine too. Great value, well positioned, spotlessly clean, superb food. Highly recommended.

Beautiful, rural location but only 10 minutes drive from Potes and 40 minutes from Fuente De Cable Car. A warm welcome from our hosts who were very helpful and accommodating during our short stay despite some translation issues due to our appalling Spanish but nothing that Google translate couldn’t sort! Our first floor room with balcony and mountain view was spacious, clean and sufficiently comfortable. Wonderful to listen to the amazing dawn and dusk chorus from the balcony. Swimming pool looked very inviting but unfortunately it was still very early in the season so had not had chance to warm up. Our dinner in the restaurant both nights was very good with a decent food & wine menu and breakfast also enjoyable. The large private parking area was great too especially as given the quiet, peaceful location you will need transport. A very relaxing, enjoyable and peaceful stay.

Posada El Hoyal is a lovely family run hotel and restaurant with stunning views of the mountains. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean with a balcony overlooking the mountains. We had dinner in the restaurant both nights and the food was excellent. The breakfast was very good too. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

What a gem. Very friendly welcome from everyone, including Lola the dog. Comfy room and very quiet. Restaurant is excellent with good food, wine , and coffee. We asked for after dinner liqueurs and we’re provided with generous sized Cointreau and the local Baileys, all with a smile. Like all such places try a little Spanish and the borders are immediately removed. Finally the pool is clean and warm. I loved this place.

Fuimos haCe tiempo una escapada pareja pero estuvimos tan a gusto...que tenemos ganas de repetir. Un sitio tranquilo en un entorno precioso,la atención buenisima. Tienen restaurante y La comida está muy muy bien. Repetiremos seguro. Lo recomiendo cien por cien

Entorno genial, precioso y muy acogedor. Óscar y su familia nos han tratado muy bien. Recomendable al 100%. Y el restaurante también es super recomendable. Las habitaciones están super limpias y todo el hotel igual. Además está muy bien situado para visitar toda la zona de Liébana.
