Perfecto para familias

El trato del personal del hotel fue fantástico y la habitación perfecta para nosotros dos y nuestra hija pequeña. La cena fue abundante y hay varias opciones para elegir; el desayuno tipo buffet tiene opciones para satisfacer a todos los clientes. Cuenta con Spa (18€ pax), masajes en la habitación (el precio varia en función del servicio), piscina exterior y un pequeño parque infantil, ambos de uso gratuito. Además, ofrecen rutas de senderismo guiadas, y gratuitas, por el entorno de Santillana del Mar. ¿Qué más se puede pedir?

Overnight stop

Lovely hotel within easy walking distance of the very pretty village. The hotel has a Spa (18€ extra charge) and an out door pool We had dinner at the hotel which was good. Breakfast was pretty standard. We only had one night here before catching the ferry from Santander, which was an easy 30 minute drive away.

Highly Recommended

Have now stayed at this lovely hotel 3 times which says it all. Such interesting decor including the vintage bikes and immaculately tended gardens. Free gym and outside pool though charge made for spa pool. Friendly obliging staff, enough English spoken to get by. Dinner is especially good value as it includes a very acceptable bottle of San Marcos red and a litre of water. Menu maybe a bit repetitive but nobody will leave the dining room hungry! Breakfast selection also excellent and varied. Brilliant new coffee machine. Rooms of a good size, very clean and beds comfortable. Plenty of parking spaces. Within a short stroll of the village centre - wear comfortable shoes as streets are cobbled. The church with its large tableau in the cloisters is well worth the €3 entrance fee. Incidentally it took us all of 23 minutes to drive to the port at Santander so a perfect choice after arrival or before departure on the ferry. Finally it is superb value for money.

Hotel muy cercano al centro de Santillana del Mar, con arquitectura exterior impactante. El personal encantador con una sonrisa permanente y con interés por facilitar al cliente todo lo necesario, desde la reserva. Reconocimiento especial a las personas que estaban en el desayuno. El buffet correcto, aunque estuvimos en hora de máxima asistencia. Spa con dos jacuzzi, piscina interior y sauna: suficiente para una estancia corta. Estuvimos en el edificio del spa, habitaciones por aisladas entre ellas, pero con terraza al jardín y muy amplias. Muy recomendable!

Sehr gutes Hotel mit kleinem Wellnessbereich (Sauna mit kleinem Pool und Hängematten draußen, kleiner Innenpool, Massageangebot). Die Zimmer sind sowohl im Hauptgebäude als auch in einem Nebengebäude gelegen. Hotel liegt an einer Straße, die jedoch nicht sonderlich laut war. Im Doppelzimmer je zwei große Betten, geräumiges Bad mit Wanne. Fensterläden aus Holz innen. Zimmer sind hellhörig.Gutes W-LAN. Parkplätze direkt am Hotel.Frühstück ist gut. Personal sehr freundlich.
