Reviews for Hotel La Polar

Review 1：The hard floors and corridors outside the room amplify the noise of loud hotel guests and so it can be a little noisey at night if there are crying children or guests that arrive back late. Certainly not the fault of hotel staff, but something to keep in mind if you are looking for a good quiet night sleep.

Review 2：Nice location in walking distance to the centre. The room has everything you need for a short stay. Cleaning staff were very good. Overall, a good experience.

Review 3：Don't know about other rooms , but our double bed was uncomfortable and had a dip in the middle , we'd both wake up with mild back pains but other than that overall the hotel was fantastic .

Review 4：The hotel exceeded my expectations! Very friendly and helpful staff , the size of the room was just enough for us , very clean and modern. Can't really comment on location as we drove everywhere , but it seemed about 5 mins to the city centre driving !!! Fantastic hotel , will be staying here again when I'm back in Gijon

Review 5：Not competent staff (it took 17 min to issue/print the invoice after the check-out). Nor English nor German nor Italian nor French spoken by the staff during the check out.

Review 6：roads close to the hotel are so traffic and it's very difficult to find park near the place. you have to cross the bridge to park the car. this regualar but a little bit uneasy

Review 7：staff available all the day from early morning, good position

Review 8：Easy walk from bus station Staff really friendly & helpful Great location across from the beach Modern & clean Spacious bathroom English news channels

Review 9：Because of the location you are almost obliged to use their parking and pay 10 euros. You can only get to it after you check in. Until then you have to park illegally or if you're lucky you find a spot.

Review 10：Price was OK. Location not the best but OK.

Review 11：They-maria-spoke english- could help me with everything- made a great salad for me in the cafe- very close to the pier- I was walking the Camino which was right outside their front door

Review 32：Always use this hotel in Gijon,it is the best of the bunch.Its close to the beach and a short walk to town.The staff are excellent and it has a nifty bar which serves good tapas and is used by many locals.IN reference to a previous comment that the hotel is situated close to industrial waste land.This is actually the old railway sidings and is well fenced off.As usual I look forward to my next visit

Review 35：There is no elevator out of the car park into the hotel.

Review 36：Very convenient for town and beaches. Secure easily accessable car parking. Quiet at night. When we had to terminate our holiday early because of a medical problem the staff could not have been more helpfull

Review 37：The secure parking. The friendliness and helpfulness of the receptionist (why is their English always so much better than my Spanish?). The busy cafe/bar next door.

Review 38：Maybe a bit more sound proof in the room

Review 39：Very friendly and happy staff. food very reasonable priced and tasty. Great having wifi and for a reasonable price our car was safe in their garage.

Review 40：The garage facility, although very secure, took some adapting to with having to obtain key, get the correct lift, return the key etc. A bit confusing for the older person!!!

Review 41：The friendliness of the staff could not be better. The hotel was very convenient for the ferry and for the beach.

Review 42：Extra fee for garage.

Review 43：Return visit. Reasonable price. Garage parking for a fee if required. Friendly staff. Handy for both beach and city. Excellent stopover when using the ferry to/from France.

Review 44：The location was a little too far from the centre of Gijon. Parking in Gijon itself is difficult, but the hotel offers private parking at guest´s cost.

Review 45：Large comfortable room with large beds beautifully modern bathroom with hairdryer and ample towels.

Review 46：Can be a bit noisy (with windows open) due to closeness to road so bring earplugs.

Review 47：Friendly staff. Good (15 min walk) for city centre. Good size room and good size bathroom with full bath. Handy cafeteria on site for breakfast, drinks, some tapas and light meals. Good restaurant (Tierra Astur) close by.

Review 48：There was a very limited daytime selection in the cafeteria.

Review 49：The hotel is modern and clean. The staff are very friendly. It is close to the beach and only a short walk to the centre and the old part. I liked the ambience and I enjoyed my stay there.

Review 50：The noise at the weekend from other clients, really loud talking and door bangging, all through the night.

Review 51：It was quiet, good light, lovely balcony and cafeteria. Excelent food and coffee. Very helpful and friendly staff. I hope to stay there again.

Review 52：Third time I have stayed at this excellent hotel,lots of help from Maria on front desk with some printing.Nothing really too much trouble.Top quality hotel

Review 53：As stated elsewhere all rooms are first floor so don't be fooled by the photo! Staff member on duty when I tried to check out couldn't break off from his important phone call to communicate with me, rather rude final impression.

Review 54：Very nice rooms, excellent value. Staff member on check-in was lovely.

Review 55：Hotel exterior photographs very misleading - the hotel is first floor only with small reception desk on ground floor.

Review 56：Convenient for city centre. Decant size bedroom and good size bathroom. Staff friendly and helpful. Secure underground hotel carparking (extra charge)

Review 57：The central heating going of periodically during the night.

Review 58：The Staff were excellant, Adella? the manager , Maria and all of the staff were a credit to Accor Hotels and the city of Gijon. Their hospitality, care for customers, and level of service was outstanding. We came away wanting to return to Asturias ASAP.

Review 59：Not much English spoken in Gijón.

Review 60：Great location 100 meters from the beach. 10 minute walk to the train station. Every room has a balcony. 15 minute walk to the old town. Cute design. Friendly and helpful staff.

Review 61：I asked for a quiet room and the noise coming up the stairs from thelobby and cafe was tremendous. I had to wear ear plugs. This should beaddressed.The fire alarm was covered in what looked like wet toilet paper. There was black ash on the floor under the sink in the bathroom - someone was smoking something and it wasn't cleaned up after they left.

Review 62：Cheapest place. Very nice front desk clerk.

Review 63：Great location by the El Poniente beach. Incredibly friendly staff. All rooms have balconies and right in front of the Hotel you have a bus stop where several bus routes stop taking you anywhere in the city. However it is just a ten minute walk to the center of town. Gijon is a great undiscoverd destination in Spain and I hope it remains so.

Review 64：I came from Barcelona which I did not enjoyed. It was too hot, granted it was August, but I also found the city overrated. The famous Ramblas to me seemed like a second rate midway at a carnival, besides Gaudy, which they are obsessed with and who I find that like something very sweet, best taken in small doses, it has no great museums as compared with other great cities like Madrid, New York, London or Paris. On the hand Gijon, a small and very manageable city is charming, great location with beautiful beaches and incredibly nice people. The weather was great. It's a tourist destination for mainly Spanish nationals, undiscovered by international tourism and I hope it remains so.

Review 65：One member of the cafe staff was rude & unhelpful (but the others werecharming)!

Review 66：Clean, modern hotel with cafe for drinks and light meals. Near to thebeach, restaurants and city centre with shops etc. Secure underground parking.

Review 67：Great location in Gijon just by the beach, not far from the center. Veryfriendly staff. Comfortable bed. The hotel has a nice bar downstairs.Good value for money. Pet friendly

Review 68：I stayed here as there were so many positve reviews on the Polar and itdid not disappoint at all.Its a great friendly place with good rooms andclose to the old part of Gigon

Review 69：The old guy with glasses was rude and extremely unhelpful. He is likely the owner and should not have any contact with the customers. Other than that, everything was fine.

Review 70：The walls were dirty. The towels were not changed everyday. Only one key card was given for the room so you could not charge electrical items whilst out the room!

Review 71：The Hotel Staff were always friendly, helpful and kind.

Review 72：The hotel was convenient to the train station and the beach which were both 5 minutes away.
