Have stayed in this hotel many times over the last few years. The location is perfect just a short walk to the main area of Sardinero and the beach. The food is amazing. Having tried most restaurants in the area, this is by far the best food. Rooms are very clean. My one criticism is that the rooms are a bit plain and outdated, especially the bathrooms. Nevertheless a very nice place to stay if visiting Santander

I spent 4 days in Santander and the hotel is really good. Nice location, clean and staffs are very nice and helpful. They helped me to arrange for early check in and helped us to book the restaurants. I am pretty sure I will book this hotel again.

Staff were very helpful and polite. Room was good but very thin walls - so quite a noisy room. Breakfast was adequate but could do with more variety and better hot options.

This hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. The design and vibe were awesome. The room was serene and very pretty with a great deck and ocean view. Everything was walking distance. Hotel staff were fantastic. For the price, this was a standout.
