It was very close to the Sardinero and some great restaurants. The room was very clean and comfortable. The outside terraza was a nice place for drinks. It is a beautiful part of Santander. We walked the one block to the paseo near the beach each night and ate breakfast at a local cafe.

What Guests Said About Santander:

    Santander is a popular resort for mainly Spanish visitors.

    Santander is a popular resort for mainly Spanish visitors. It's an attractive city with plenty to see and do. It's family friendly too. It's easy to get to nearby Bilbao, or to Potes in the mountains. There are fast and frequent coach services all over the region. It may not attract A list celebrities or have the glamour of San Sebastian, but it has plenty of appeal if you are looking for a sun and sea holiday, and pinxtos too!

    Beautiful coastline, beaches looked immaculate, decent cafe’s, bars restaurants and shops. The only downfall for us was that we had our small dog with us and we would have loved to do the open top bus but dogs are not allowed.

    Santander is quite touristy, but not very tourist-friendly.

    Santander is quite touristy, but not very tourist-friendly. Intercity public transport is limited, restaurants and supermarkets are expensive, and getting around often involves climbing steep stairs between roads. A car is helpful, but even then, stairs are unavoidable.

    The hotel has a great location by El Sardinero beach, good access, easy parking, good rooms with great sea views, an excellent restaurant and provides a generous breakfast buffet. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Absolutely excellent and highly recommended for an overnight or longer stay in Santander. For UK visitors it is a ten minute drive to the ferry port.
