Hotel Rebeco

Picos de Europa


Many of the 30 rooms in this handsome, warm stone lodge have mountain views, and 11 include loft levels that are perfect for kids. You can't help but admire owner Conchi Cuesta's tapestries. It has a good, reasonably priced restaurant and a roaring winter fire, and organises 4WD outings into the Picos (around €100, maximum six people).
