Beautiful property centrally located in the heart of Santillana del Mar.
United States of AmericaThe hotel is a beautiful, small medieval palace. Beamed ceilings, perfectly creaky wood floors, perfect location within Santillana. Check-in was a delight. There's no a/c but even in mid-late August the evenings were cool so we never missed it.
SpainBeautiful hotel in XVI century mansion with all the charm to go with it. nice rooms with exposed beams and perfect location to view the area. Breakfast is slightly monotonous.
United States of AmericaLoved the common area rooms - they were just spectacular. The location couldn't be nicer as well.
United States of AmericaStaff was excellent. Very helpful. Hotel had a lot of character and the location was excellent. Breakfast was good.
CanadaLove the atmosphere! It is in the center of historical santillana del Mar and virtually walkable to any part of the town. Loved the room that we booked, but only thing we discovered was that bathroom door did not lock which is not a big deal. The wait staff was super friendly and spoke excellent English along with, obviously, Spanish. The lobby is marvelous and historical history of building fascinating. The atmosphere is great, the breakfast is wonderful, but one other thing was the night we checked in they were experiencing connectivity issues with card reader so we paid for stay in morning. Not sure if the same issue but the wifi did not connect well with either of our devices.
United States of AmericaA very cool huge “house/ palace” turned into an hotel. The best location in town.
IsraelIt was fine. I wish I would have splurged on the Paradour next to it.
United States of AmericaLove this place perfect location, romantic, old palace building.
