Hotel Quinta Duro (Gijón)

A rural retreat set in the grounds of a large private park for the exclusive use of its customers and only five minutes away from the centre of Gijon and its beach.

This hotel sits nicely in the heart of the Asturian coast, on the Bay of Biscay, and makes a perfect base from which to explore any village, town, mountain and beach of Asturias.

The building, more than two centuries old, has been refurbished to accommodate the needs of the modern traveller. However it retains its original 1860’s elegance, with consistent decoration throughout and original pieces of furniture to be found in all the rooms.

At the gates of Gijon but with all the tranquillity of a rural setting, the Hotel Quinta Duro is a hotel with an original and elegant early 1900s “noucentista” style that will please classic and connoisseur spirits as much as those looking for comfort and privacy.

The main façade of the building features many of the characteristic elements of traditional Asturian architecture, such as an open balcony, a wooden gallery and a beautiful outdoor porch supported by columns.

Inside, the house is covered in chestnut floors and wall panels on nearly every room and wall. The fine antique furniture, Mariano Benlliure’s sculptures, paintings and decoration create a refined yet relaxed atmosphere.

We have made improvements to the building and estate always bearing in mind the special character of the premises but also incorporating modern facilities, such as a lift to the rooms, an on-site car park and complimentary internet anywhere on the hotel premises, so that our guests can enjoy a pleasant stay with us.

Hot water is provided by solar panels. We use renewable sources of energy in our commitment to protect the environment.
