Marvelous

Palacio de Luces was such a wonderful choice for a night in northern Spain. It's location in Asturias is breathtaking, with views of the Sierra del Sueve mountains and inviting gardens. Even on a rainy afternoon, we were delighted with the scenery surrounding the Palacio. Our rooms were large and handsome, with cozy chairs to sit for a cup of tea, and an enormous bathroom. Amenities in the hotel include a sauna and pool, a piano bar, and many quiet seating areas around the hotel. The restaurant was fabulous and the waitstaff extremely attentive. Two of us chose the absolutely outstanding fresh catch of the day, matched by the succulent pork loin and the always wonderful ham croquettes. Of course, the wine was an excellent Rioja. Every member of the staff was as helpful as they could be, with one young man just coming on duty in the morning rushing out to wish us a good trip during the rest of our time in Spain. All in all, Palacio de Luces would be a must-return for me.

Dear RafflesAndFinn:
Thank you very much for your candid review of your recent stay at our hotel. Your feedback is extremely valuable to us, as we strive to improve with each and every stay. Did you know that Palacio de Luces is the first Relais & Châteaux hotel in Asturias? The building itself dates back from 1580. The former palace was reconstructed with the aim to provide maximum comfort and coziness to a modern traveler, yet at the same time to preserve the elegance and atmosphere of the original construction. Gastronomy is one of our main commitments and we are glad to know that you had the opportunity to try our fresh and homemade cuisine. We are also very happy that you noticed the breathtaking location of our house as well as our friendly and helpful staff. Again, many thanks for your review and positive, complimentary, words therein.

Looking forward to welcoming you again. With our best regards.
Desirée M.Villaverde (Guest Relations Director

A stunning hotel but ....

This hotel is breathtaking when you walk in - the architect has done a wonderful job joining a light modern extension on to the original house. The light streams through the windows and the wide open corridors, the dining room has amazing views from all its large glass windows and you can’t wait to arrive at your bedroom. This is one of the problems to me as the rooms have much smaller windows which means they feel dark in comparison to the public areas and really have restricted views almost as though another architect has designed them. (Interestingly all the photos of the bedrooms in their brochure are taken at night with the curtains closed). Sadly l felt no warmth in the hotel or the staff who just seemed to be doing their job but not really enjoying it. There was no place to curl up with a book and read in the sun as the only chairs outside were near the bar and you felt that if they had put sun loungers on the grass you would have messed up the immaculate grounds. Everywhere although beautiful felt very cold & clinical and although the breakfasts were a magnificent spread & delicious you did feel that the hotel was designed for weddings & corporate events. Regardless of this it is still a five star hotel and we enjoyed our stay.

Dear Fido0:
Thank you for your comments and 5 star rating of your recent stay at the Hotel Palacio de Luces. Please let me highlight, our palace has been refurbished recently and the building is from the XVI century, for that reason every room has a different size and location and whereas some have bigger windows and more light, others have higher ceilings, but we are always willing to find the perfect room for every single guest. We are taking your experience very seriously into consideration. Our guests' comments are essential for our continuous improvement and yours have been shared with the team in order to treat them internally and establish the necessary measures on our way towards the excellence. Please accept our most sincere apologies for not meeting or exceeding your expectations. At Luces we pride ourselves on the goodness, honesty and friendliness of our staff. We relate to one another as if we are a family and as a family we really do the best that we can to make our guests feel as if they are part of that family. We are a small boutique and personal hotel and hope that our guests are comfortable enough to tell us of any shortcomings that they might experience with their accommodation or our service so that we can immediately rectify those deficiencies. . We use these reviews to guide our efforts and improve our service for the new season, full of surprises. We hope that you will consider staying with us again, the next time you visit Lastres.

Sincerely,
Desirée M.Villaverde (Guest Relations Director)

Sea bream - 60 euros

We decided to stay overnight at Palacio de Luces celebrating our wedding anniversary at their restaurant Balcon de Sueve last week,

Being frequent travellers on Silversea cruises having travelled all continents we always enjoyed our dinners at their Relais & Chateaux restaurants on board. We have also stayed and dined at more than twenty different Relais & Chateaux hotels around the world. Our experiences have always lived up to or exceeded our expectations.

Unfortunately, our visit to Balcon de Sueve was different; The maitre d’hotel presented the menu and the daily specials. We ordered two appetizers and my wife ordered the most expensive fish dish on the menu, bonito con fois for 28 euros and I opted for the maitre d’s recommendation, sea bream.

My wife asked the maitre d’ to get her Bonito rare but it was served medium well. We understood and it was not much of a problem. The problem came when I was presented the bill. I was charged 60 euro for the maitre d’s recommended sea bream which is more than twice the cost of the most expensive fish dish (including fois gras) on the menu. I asked the waiter why the sea bream was so expensive and most importantly, why was I not informed about the price. The waiter told me that the maitre d’ had left for the evening and suggested that I discuss the issue with the reception the next morning.

The hotel/restaurant was aware of our wedding anniversary and we were later offered coffee free of charge at the bar.

At checkout the next morning, I complained to the reception. The receptionist went to Management and explained our complaint. He was told that nothing will be done or explained as we had already received coffee free of charge.

Relais & Chateaux is a reputable global brand and I find it disappointing that Management for a local hotel rather hide than explaining/discussing what in my opinion went wrong.

Elegant & luxurious

Our recent 4 night say was excellent. The hotel is an historic building with a sympathetic modern extension. The location is in peaceful countryside yet only a 5 minute drive from the pretty village of Lastres with a beach and bars/restaurants.
I booked a standard double which was spacious & elegantly furnished with a huge bathroom. The bed was exceptionally comfortable. It did not have a patio or terrace but there was a lovely view.
There are many sitting areas scattered throughout the hotel both indoors & outdoors as well as an inviting bar.
There is a wellness suite & I made use of the indoor pool which is a good size for a hotel.
The breakfast buffet was good with plenty of choice.
The dining room has a jaw dropping huge glass facade with a view of the Picos. We ate dinner here twice. Not a huge choice on the menu but dishes well cooked & nicely presented. It is trying to be a fine dining experience. Expect to pay at least €100 for a dinner for 2.
All of the staff are helpful & attentive without being too obtrusive.
We very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend.
