Walker Insight

Hotel Alcomar is one of those classic seafront hotels that immediately puts guests at ease — warm, well-run, and with one of the best locations in Gijón. The family atmosphere keeps the experience personal and attentive, and the 9.7 location score confirms what repeat guests have known for years: the view over San Lorenzo Beach from the promenade here is simply one of the finest in the city.

Gijón’s San Lorenzo Beach stretches for nearly three kilometres, and the hotel’s promenade position makes it the ideal base for morning walks along the waterfront before the day’s stage begins. The Cimadevilla old town — with its Roman baths, narrow cobbled streets, and famous cider bars — is just around the headland. Calle San Bernardo, visible from the hotel, is a good street for picking up any supplies needed for the next stage.
