Parador de Cangas de Onís

Experience the rich history of this ancient, former monastery, thought to be founded by King Alfonso I. It forms part of a National Monument surrounded by the Picos de Europa mountains.

According to local traditions, the monastery was founded by the legendary Catholic King in the eighth century. It was named as a National Monument in 1907, when it was extended using the same materials and style as the original building. Nowadays, the Parador de Cangas de Onís allows you to soak up this tranquil and historic atmosphere whilst staying in luxury.

Set on the green banks of the River Sella, the Parador’s beautiful surroundings are perfect for nature lovers looking for a peaceful getaway. Use the hotel as a base to visit the stunning mountain scenery of the Picos de Europa National Park.

After a day in the fresh air, return to the Parador to try some traditional Asturian cuisine in its spacious, traditional-style dining hall.
