Hotel Villalegre
Quiet, soundproofed rooms near the golf course and reservoir
About this hotel
Hotel Villalegre sits a little outside the old town, 1.6 km from Avilés' centre, in a quieter setting close to main roads and transport links. Rooms are modern and soundproofed, brightly decorated with large beds, and free Wi-Fi extends throughout the building; breakfast is served in the café, which doubles as a free-to-use workspace with a guest computer. Outdoors, guests are close to a golf course and the Embalse de Trasona reservoir, where outdoor activities range beyond the usual city-break itinerary, and the Parque Astur and El Corte Inglés shopping centres are both a short distance away. Oviedo is a 25-minute drive, making this a workable base for exploring further into Asturias as well as Avilés itself. Family rooms, room service and private garage parking round out a property built for comfort and convenience over old-town character.
- 1.6km from the centre
- Family rooms available
- Golf course nearby
- Private garage parking
Our take
This suits families and travellers who'd rather trade Old Town proximity for quiet, modern rooms, private parking and easy access to outdoor activities at the Embalse de Trasona or a round of golf. It also works for anyone using Avilés as a base to explore Oviedo, 25 minutes away. Travellers who want to walk to the harbour and Plaza de España from their room should look toward a more central old-town hotel instead.
- ✓Use the free guest computer in the café if you need to print boarding passes before flying out.
- ✓Book a golf round in advance if you're combining a stay here with a game, tee times fill fast.
- ✓Drive out to the Embalse de Trasona for an afternoon if you want a break from old-town sightseeing.

Why guests love itThe distance from the old town, 1.6 km, turns out to be an advantage for a family stay: rooms are quiet and soundproofed, the beds are properly sized, and there's private garage parking rather than hunting for a spot near narrow historic streets. The Embalse de Trasona gives children somewhere to run around outside the usual sightseeing, and the café's free computer came in handy for printing tickets. Anyone wanting to step straight out onto old-town cobblestones will find the location a short drive rather than a walk.
