In the lush valley south of Oviedo, the historic thermal town of Las Caldas has drawn visitors to its mineral waters since Roman times. The modern Blau Gran Hotel sits within the wider Las Caldas thermal complex — centred around the 18th-century Royal Spa building, where officially recognised mineral-medicinal waters still shape the experience. This is a traditional thermal spa stay, built around hydrotherapy, structured programmes and the European ritual of “taking the waters,” with days spent moving between pools, steam, contrast and rest.
