A very interesting historic building. Quiet. Spacious. Good breakfast.

Catherine United States of America

The Parador is so beautiful ! You feel like you are in a medieval palace. The rooms are very good size and comfortable and the town is so small that any location is a good location . Service was really nice !

Maria United States of America

Hotel was located in a beautiful village. The Staff were very helpful. The restaurant evening meal was really good as was the Breakfast with plenty of choice. Would certainly stay at this hotel again.

Fidel Puerto Rico

Romantic hotel in a historic building in the center of Santillana del Mar. Wonderful restaurant and terrace.

Philip United States of America

It is beautiful old mansion converted to hotel right in the heart of the old, walled city. It was immaculately clean. The bathrooms were modern and worked perfectly. This is especially impressive considering how old the building is.

Tami United States of America

The location was wonderful. The village is beautiful and has many good restaurants.

Mary United States of America

The building was beautiful and historic. The room was spacious and well decorated. The location was quiet. Breakfast was good and included hot food you could order.

Jill United States of America

This is the high end of accommodation in Santillana del Mar. Situated centrally and it has parking. The restaurant looked a bit stuffy (though i'm sure the food was fabulous).Did not have the Euro 20 breakfast buffet. Considering the price I paid for the room I thought charging for the bottle of water left in the room was a bit mean. otherwise, no complaints. The room and staff were lovely

Catherine United Kingdom

The hotel is situated in the centre of the old preserved town and the building is historic with many preserved and interesting features. The food was excellent with a good choice for both dinner and breakfast.
