18.31 °C, few clouds, Cloudiness 24%, Wind speed : 3.39 km/hSolo Palacio is a five-century-old property in Quirós, Spain, reimagined as a wabi-sabi experience where beauty is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete. The stay is designed around simplicity, texture, and calm — with 11 SPACES to choose from and a setting that invites you to slow down and celebrate things as they are. It’s an intimate base for nature days, local heritage, and quiet wellness, with the mountains and protected landscapes of Asturias close enough to shape every plan.
What the Stay Feels Like
The experience at Solo Palacio is pared-back, sensory, and deeply intentional. The design and decoration lean into simplicity, helping the focus stay on the experience rather than distractions. Materials and details are treated as part of the pleasure — the kind you notice slowly, over a long breakfast, a warm bath, or an evening drink.
Accommodation includes categories such as Solo COZY Apartments, ranging from 37 to 55 square meters and designed for two people. Depending on the apartment, the space includes a fireplace and a freestanding bathtub, alongside special beds, linens, and à la carte pillows. The overall mood is quiet luxury with a grounded edge — a place that feels curated, but never overworked.
Community & Local Connection
A meaningful eco-stay should leave the destination stronger. Solo Palacio partners with BURRU, a non-profit association dedicated to the protection of donkeys and the preservation of the environment, to offer an EcoAdventure with Donkeys. The experience takes place in the quiet beauty of Las Ubiñas Natural Park, and costs €30 per person, with 100% of the proceeds supporting Burru’s work. It’s a simple, direct way for a stay to support a cause rooted in the local landscape.
Local culture also plays a role in the experience through heritage-focused activities, including guided tours created in collaboration with the local university.
