Parador de Cangas de Onís
Occupying the handsome former Monasterio de San Pedro de Villanueva (p. ###), this hotel sits 2km (1[bf]1/2 miles) from the town center on the banks of the Río Sella. Public areas feature exposed beams and open stonework, while guest rooms are far more modernized—sedate and comfortable. Even the basic rooms tend to be large, with sitting and sleeping areas defined by squares of carpet in the same gray and taupe tones as the upholstery. Ask for one with a balcony to enjoy the surrounding landscape. Because Cangas de Onís is strategically located at the foothills of the Sierra Escapa, this hotel is favored by outdoors enthusiasts who flock to the area for fly-fishing, canoeing, and hiking in the mountains.
