Walker Insight

Silken Ciudad Gijón stands out among the city’s larger hotels for the quality of its included amenities — free gym, sauna, and heated pool are rare perks at this price point, and they make a meaningful difference for pilgrims arriving after days on the trail. The Gala restaurant, serving modern interpretations of traditional Asturian dishes, is a fitting reward for walkers who have been eating on the move.

The hotel is 15 minutes’ walk from Gijón’s old Cimadevilla quarter, where the Roman baths, the Jovellanos birthplace, narrow cobbled streets, and a string of atmospheric cider bars make for one of the most enjoyable evenings on the entire Camino del Norte. Asturian cider is poured from height for oxygenation and drunk quickly — and the bars around Cimadevilla are among the best places to try it.
