It is a simple and comfortable, homely place. The parking is gated and alongside the property. The views are nothing special, but certainly not offensive.

Great time in a small village
A trip go Spain is worth a trip to Santillana del Mar. It is only a daytrip but worth an overnight stay to have a quiet mini holiday. It is a small village with nice restaurants. Go one time and you'll be back; I did.

A little gem
We chose this hotel as the village was a short 25 minute drive max from the Santander ferry and it had a restaurant. We knew we would have been driving all day so looked forward to a meal in comfort. Unfortunately we arrived in a rainstorm, having already driven through snow, only to be told that the restaurant had already closed for the season. The owner gave us a map of the town and assured us there were several restaurants within walking distance. The rain eventually eased enough to get out (brolly available if required) but by this time we were tired, so we ended up in an establishment next door which actually had quite a few spanish eating in it, and which did a fair main course. The room was charming, centrally heated with plenty of hanging space and whilst it overlooked what appeared to be a fairly busy road, once the shutters were closed, you wouldn't know it. Upon return the lobby/lounge had a lovely wood fire going and we were able to enjoy a nightcap. We opted to have breakfast which was €7 each which wasn't bad value - cereals, juice, tea/coffee, toast etc but unfortunately the scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, provided were stone cold However there was plenty of alternative continental to be had so we weren't too worried. For the price, as per my title, this hotel was a little gem and the owner and staff delightful

Handy for the old town.
Clean, tastefully decorated. Clean spacious room with a very good bathroom. The staff are very good, good breakfast. Lounge and bar/ restaurant areas comfortable and well thought out. Well located for a short walk into the old town.Good secure car park. The only negatives are the beds are not the best, and sound insulation is not great so you have to wait for everyone else to settle down before you can go to sleep. Shame as otherwise it is a very nice hotel.

Friendly service, if a bit stretched. Front desk guy was also bartender and waiter, until regular staff arrived. On a busy road, but not too loud. Close to town, but not that close to the Camino del Norte. Good choice if staying a few days in Santillana del Mar.

Couldn’t fault anything. Because of a late arrival due to ferry crossing being delayed by 3 hours the hotel made sure we could still have dinner that night and we’re excellent hosts

This was a quaint hotel with lovely furnishings. Very short walk to old town, restaurants, bars and sites. This is a family run hotel and the staff were extremely helpful and very attentive to our needs. I would stay here again.

Nice family owned hotel
We stayed here for two nights on our way to San Sebastian Spain, the hotel was very clean, staff was absolutely great and friendly, they will help with any questions and really made our stay wonderful. We had a nice time chatting with Jose one of the owners, he was very nice and we enjoyed talking to him about different topics. This town was very interesting with lots of cool things to see, if you are ever in this area of Spain I will recommend to stop by this town and stay at this nice hotel.

First time in Santillana
The hotel is located 2 minutes walk from downtown. Santillana es a small place. We stayed in a two bed room. The beds are not ideal for big or tall people. The internet works very well. We did not watch the TV, but there is a small TV in the room. The town of Santillana del Mar is very pretty and there are several restaurants in the area where you can eat and dine very well.
