Hotel Faranda Pathos Gijón, Ascend Hotel Collection

Good hotel for it's price. Nice location: everything is near . Poor soundproofing, so you can hear your neighbors and the street. Keep this in mind if you have trouble sleeping. But overall I recommend the hotel

Ok, but the single room is too small.

The Hotel is not 3 stars, far from that level, apart from the good location, very little positive things can be said. The Breakfast is outsourced, and really is not up to any standard, they do you a favour sort of.....and something better could be expected from the description of the hotel in the website. The chain, should try better. As for the rooms are very small, at least, there was no noise on the evening I stayed, as for the wifi, almost impossible to connect to you, so better try some other hotel.....the description should be better, as for the price it was steep for the service offered. Parking is not easy if at all, and the nearest public parking is a few blocks away, and it is not cheap. Next visit to Gijon, I will look for a different and better hotel.

Went to Gijon for a friend's wedding in the off season. I can see how the place would be popular in the summer season, but not much going on otherwise. The hotel is in a prime location though - right next to the beach and downtown. We booked through a website called hotel club - for convenience as my friend had used it. The desription was nothing like reality - they clearly said there was an indoor swimming pool. Wasn't expecting much, but the description is clearly for another hotel, as this is a small old hotel with locals in the coffee shop in the front. The rooms are pretty pokey and some of the walls are a bit paper thin, but they've made a precent decent crack at fixing it up to make it look a bit more modern by adding some pop art prints and theming each room with a famous person. Probably quite good value for the location and the standard.
