WORK in HSB News: tourism, art and culture in one place
Press29/09/2026HSB Noticias covered the opening of OBRA Hotels in Astorga and focused on something that is our starting point: that a hotel can be several things at once while still being a great place to sleep.
What the media highlighted
The article summarizes the project as a space that "integrates tourism, art, gastronomy, design, and local culture in one place."
It is a good description of how day-to-day operations work. The common areas do not have a single assigned function: the wall that displays photography this week will be the backdrop for a talk the next; the table where someone works in the morning is the site for a presentation at night.
Gastronomy: Ganso & Castor
The gastronomic side has its own name. Ganso & Castor operates with the logic of a neighborhood bistro, not a hotel Restaurant: a long Tisch, an open counter, pastries, and real coffee. It serves brunch, lunch, dinner, high tea, and cocktails, and it is also the hotel's room service.
Local identity
The article insists on local identity, and we agree. Astorga is the part of El Poblado where you can still sleep: it takes minutes to walk across, it is steps away from El Poblado Park, and it remains outside the noise of Provenza. The building—brick, clay, terracotta tones, and plants in every crack—was designed not to disrupt that.
