“An extremely good value”
Don't be scared off by the word 'hostal'. The Standard Double Room that we booked turned out to be a spacious hotel room with a bathroom and comfortable bed. The hotel is in an extremely scenic location and right at the beginning of the popular Ruta de Cares. Lunch and dinner are served at the restaurant at a very reasonable price. All in all a great value!

“Good value, comfortable stay - we would return !”
Lovely little hotel at the end of the famous Ruta del Cares, perfect for a stopover and to spend time in the mountains. We were pleased to be able to eat at the hotel in the evening, and liked the food. I am vegetarian and had a delicious and really large salad. Rooms were comfortable. I liked being able to have a bath after a day spent hiking.

“Perfect base for the Cares Gorge”
If you want to walk the Cares Gorge, or visit the remote village of Caín deep in the mountains, Hostal La Ruta is the perfect base for doing so as it is literally within yards of the path leading into the gorge. The staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfast was good and our room was clean and comfortable.

“Incredible location, very welcoming.”
This hostal is in the most amazing location. It is clean and comfortable. The staff are very welcoming and it was lovely to arrive in a warm room at this cold time of year. It would have been good to have a bit more for breakfast but the toast and orange juice with a coffee was enough to get us in our way.

Super cold if you don't turn on the heater. Host, for some reason didn't do that for us, so we have to wait about two hours before room warmed up. And lots of spider web.... Won't recommend.
