The hotel was a bit far away from the old city, especially on a rainy day as we got. Anyway, the room was spacious and clean. And the restaurant was above average by all means. We got very impressed by the quality of the food.

Bad
Worse 4star hotel ever Broken furniture, floor was coming off, mould in the bathroom, no kettle in the room, room was dirty, strange smell (must have been due to the mould)
Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022
Response from Hotel Manager on 19 Aug 2022
Dear guest,Thank you for sharing your opinion with us and the rest of users.We are very sorry that you had so bad experience at your stay. Shortly after you made the check in proccess and got into your room you called reception to complain about the kettle. Our staff informed you that this service is not included in your reservation as is only a free service given in Silken Club, Deluxe and Junior Suite rooms. If we dont specify a service in our room descriptions people shouldnt take for granted that something is included. And of course not all 4*star hotels have this service as it is not so frecuently requested for our clients, at least in this area and by Spanish clients. Despite this, we provided you with a kettle and not only the kettle but also infusions, milk... completely free of charge as a courtesy. We fixed the strip between the floorboards immediately and we are sorry that you had to wait until the next day to have the drawer of the nightstand repaired.Finally, our cleaning service is one of the most valued points in our reviews, along with our staff. The cleaning partner who provided youthe kettle also showed you that the glass of the desk wasnt dirty but rather smoked, and that the smell was not at all due to any appearance of mold, but for the heat and condensation (windows closed and 3 people in the room). In fact, the mold was an inconvenience that you remark in your review but it wasnt reported during your stay. We have checked it as well and we can confirm that we havent found any mold at the bathroom.We would be pleased to welcome you again in the next future if you decide to give us another chance.Best regards,

Great base for exploring Gijón
Enjoyed a wonderful 2-night stay in Gijón. Maria at the front desk was friendly and efficient. Room 510 was large, spotless and well-appointed. Clean bathroom, nice amenities, hair dryer, nice linens, comfortable bed. 15 min walk to “downtown” and a few minutes to train/bus station. Secure parking (included in our rate) below the hotel. Restaurants and bars nearby. Quiet neighborhood. Good breakfast with variety. Would stay here again!

Everything you need for a good nights sleep!
The comfy bed, blackout curtains and near total silence made for a lovely nights sleep. The on-site parking was not only cheap, but very secure giving us peace of mind. Local facilities were good with a cafe next door and only 15 min walk from town. Thanks to its gold VIP status we also got a late checkout for free. Unfortunately we didn’t have our swimming trunks with us, but based on the number of people coming and going from the free pool, it must be worth a dip!

More of a 2 or 3 star hotel
It was okay stay. Room was nice over all but they charge you a extra 1€ for towels which for a 4 star hotel is very ridiculous to me.
Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019
Response from Guest Relations on 22 Oct 2019
Dear guest, Thank you for sharing your opinion with us. Regarding the charge of one euro for each towel used, we would like to inform you that this was a measure that we decided to carry out after we had them available for free, both in the gym and in the spa. Unfortunately, the use of towels became an abuse, as some bathers took several towels when just one is enoguh to get dried (not to mention, of course, the ones missing). The high cost of washing as well as the waste, made us make the determination to charge a euro (symbolic amount) in order to curb the situation. This probably would not be your case and we apoligize for the inconvenience that this might caused you during your stay. We hope now you understand our policy better with this explanation. Best regards

A nice hotel lovated next to the train station.
The Silken Gijon is a very nice modern chrome and glass hotel that's the rough US equivalent of a Holiday Inn or Marriott, We trained into Gijon to go to a wedding, and the hotel is across the street from it. The only downside, and it is an issue, is that it's a 6 euro ride to the city center each way. Other than that, it is a very nice hotel

Comfortable, clean room
This is a great place to stop over after a long day. I just spend one night then moved on. The only reason why I can't give it 5 stars is because the Internet was terrible. Never did I get full bars even in the lobby. It is very slow and I would loose my connection frequently. If you need Internet access for your travels pass on the this place otherwise it is great.

hotel is nice, albeit right next to the (quiet small) train station. bit far from the touristy area and the main beach (15-25 min walk); it's close to a smaller beach and aquarium. staff were nice, gym was quite small as was the pool.
