Hotel Villa Rosario

Room 102 faced south rather than seaward however it was comfortable with a huge balcony with table, two chairs and two deck chairs. Sadly in the rain we could not use these! Built in the garden is a modern restaurant with a Michelin star. Whilst we could not afford to dine there, the waiter-served breakfast was very good. Two minor complaints: The only electric plugs in the bedroom were for the bedside table lamps and no plugs by the desk (luckily we do carry a selection of adaptors); also no shelving in the bathroom for toiletries.

What a beautiful Hotel, my wife and I had a wonderful stay in this Hotel, the resort is gorgeous, and the Hotel being right on the promenade was a bonus, what I would say is the breakfasts are too complicated, the food tasty and plenty to give a good start to the day, but it’s just made too complicated. The pastries and cakes presented in a weird basket, fruit placed in a bowl could have been fresher. The order selection on request was over complicated, having cooked and fresh on the same section of the menu, serving bacon on cold potato chip sticks seemed strange, the scrambled egg was delicious, there was then an option of cold meats and local cheeses, all very tasty, but having them available on a buffet table would have been easier, a Greek yogurt, was offered but no option of honey or granola, though when I did order that, the granola and honey arrived after I had eaten the yogurt. The toast presented as you got to your table was not toast as most people would recognise it, granary rolls split in half and toasted, you really needed a tough mouth to break that down. It’s a shame that they have took a simple meal and created a confusing experience. But don’t let that put you off as staff and Hotel is brilliant.

We were Camino walkers and this was pricey in terms of our normal budget for our walk. But it was worth it. The room was lovely and the toiletries were a very good brand. We even had some lovely chocolates on our arrival in the room. Lovely balcony overlooking the sea and the reception staff couldn't have been any nicer. Really delicious breakfast. We hope to return again someday.

Rosario 11 Main hotel is an old "promenade villa" facing the wonderful bay - Rosario II is across the road with use of the same facilities. Lovely rooms and very helpful staff - we visited on a road trip through Northern Spain with our young Jack Russell pup. Ribadesella is a truly wonderful town with exceptional beach and old town across the bridge on the other side of the estuary. Try out the restaurants and bars across the river. The hotel would make an excellent base for a longer stay to explore the area, having a well appointed bar / restaurant of its own.

Stunning building, beautiful comfortable room with seaview. Excellent breakfast and stunning dinner in the adjoining Michelin starred restaurant Ayalga. Quite exceptional and great value, maybe the best meal we have ever eaten in our combined 140 years!.

We loved this hotel. It has the best location right on the boardwalk next to the beach. Delicious breakfast and the staff were efficient and friendly. But best of all was our room with the large terrace on the ocean side with a drop dead view of the Ribadekka beach. We will be back !!

The place is fantastic, beautiful indiano house Very clean; the breakfast is wonderful, Rosio , Diana y Julio are the best

In all my travels around the world, and staying in from 1 to 5 star hotels, pensiones etc, I have never seen a 4 star hotel that did not have a functioning bar in the evening, let alone a restaurant. This hotel is cute from the outside, a place to sleep for one night. There were no bathrobes or slippers, which add to the 4 star rating. Reception told me that the "bar" was at the breakfast room, adjacent to the hotel. We went at 19;30 and there was nothing and Noone, what bar? So basically, you are either stuck in your room in the evening, or forced to find a place to eat (very few, and a good walk from the hotel). There is a very small lounge, 6 people max, off the reception otherwise, no public common areas to relaxed. The best thing about the hotel was the wonderful breakfast in front of the beach. Just my opinion from an ex international hotel manager.

staff were excellent, as was the property
