We spent two nights here last August during our second holiday in Asturias ("we" being my husband and myself and our 3 children then aged 5,11 and 12) and had a fantastic time. The idea was to see a bit of Gijon before heading into the hills for a week's self-catering in a former shepherd's home now converted and with all mod-cons. In fact it was the owner of the cottage-rental company we used who suggested this hotel.
As it turned out we wished we had spent longer in Gijon as it is a super city with plenty to see and do. The hotel Asturias makes a great base as it is an easy stroll to the beaches, marina, headland, old fishing quarter, aquarium, museums and shops. Set in the Plaza Mayor (Main Square) we had wondered about noise at night from neighbouring bars but I can honestly say it was not a problem - and our rooms had balconies ...

Advantages: Looks Disadvantages: Just about everthing
In the interests of disclosure, I used to sell these products!
What to say about this one? It looks great, possibly even better than the Pathos Logos, which I love. But and its several big 'buts' :-
1 It is a very impractical size. Its very long and very heavy at the rear so difficult to find a stand/shelf it will fit nicely.
2 The 2 little tubes/valves at the front get hot. (They also have dangerous voltages on the pins - but they are well protected by the little cages). If you have any little fingers in your house (or little furry noses for that matter), then this may not be the amp for you.
3 The sound. I never heard this amp sound good. Not even 'fair' to be honest. It always sounded strained and never seemed to have control over any speakers - not even some very easy to drive Tannoy's. To borrow an expression from boxing ...
Advantages: No children under 16 allowed, a great place for adults only Disadvantages: Not much to do in the local area
My wife and I decided that we neaded a holiday. We wend down to the local Thomson Agent and after a couple of hours deciding where to go, we decided to visit Cyprus.
We have never been to Cyprus before so it was a new venture for us. Thomson offered us a "last minute deal" where the hotel was aloceted on arrival.
After the four and half hour flight to Pathos from Gatwick, we were told that we would be staying at the Atlantica Godern Beach Hotel.
The hotel wasabout a twenty minute ride from the airport, which after a long hot journey, was welcome. On arrival, our bags were immediately taken to our rooms. The manager rushed us up into a room upstairs and to our surprise, a welcome party of sandwiches, cakes, tea and coffee awaited us.
The hotel is very large, I guess it has over 400 rooms as some were situated outside in ...
