We were a family of 4 staying at the hotel for 2 wks. Two adults and two teenagers. We loved the location. It was right across the road from the most fabulous beach. The hotel was small and quaint, also very clean. Location was very close to restaurants and busses into Santander. Breakfast was a continental breakfast and it was fresh and delicious. Any of the staff we met were very friendly and helpful. We also took to bus to Bilbao which was only 90 mins away and we visited the Guggenheim museum.

This is minor bit the coffee at breakfast was cold every morning and had to be heated by microwave . There was a nespresso machine the first morning but it disappeared after that. Other than that minor fact everything was excellent. It might bother some people but there was no A/C.

Very nice, quirky hotel near the wonderful El Sardinero beach. A short bus ride to the centre of town. Lovely helpful staff.

Previous reviewers weren’t joking when they said the rooms are small - I could touch all four walls from my bed! But, the location is great - I could see the sea and hear it and for under €80 a night September prices), so I was happy with that. Breakfast choice was decent - eggs, yoghurt, fruit etc. All the staff are nice, barring the querulous one who produces the breakfast. Overall, it’s a slightly eccentric hotel, but it defo has character!

My room needs some money invested in it - lights that don’t work, plug sockets broken, very outdated bed spread and curtains. It’s all liveable with, but it would make guests feel more valued. Breakfast at 8am (the sign says 8.15) is too late - 7am is much more practical if you want to make the most of the day.

The breakfast was a good selection of meats and cereals ans savouries and sweet snacks. Fresh coffee and teas. The reception staff were very helpful and went out of their way to help if I needed anything and were polite. The housekeeping staff were great kept my room and entire hotel clean and tidy and were also friendly and polite always cleaned the room daily and clean fresh towels daily The hotel itself was amazing and beautifully decorated and the theme was so stylish and of a very high standard

Sorry to say but the hotel was was excellent and I can't find any faults what so ever

Great location,right next to Sardinero beach, Bus stop with excellent links to the city 2 minutes away. Very nicely decorated and comfortable room, the buffet breakfast was excellent and the hotel was very accommodating for guests with a plant based diet. Room was cleaned and towels changed daily and was spotless. The promenade had great walks around the Magdalena palace and even more great beaches and the other direction had a wonderful clifftop walk to the lighthouse,which had a lovely art gallery and guess what, even more fantastic beaches to discover along the way! Public transport is cheap and plentiful with frequent buses into the city which is bustling and with plenty of sights to see including the modern art gallery and cathedral. The boat trip across the bay to Somo is also highly recommended with even more excellent beaches awaiting. Santender is a beautiful city and I look forward to visiting again soon.

Nothing, just to mention a few negative reviews about the breakfast buffet, I found it to be excellent, lovely tortilla, scrambled egg with ham and sausage, muesli, granola, toast,meat, ,cheeses, croissants,pan au chocolate, great coffee and delicious fruit juice. Unless you want a full English and aren't prepared to have a Cantabrian style breakfast,you will be more than happy, there's a microwave available if you prefer some items hot (I prefer warm tortilla) . I just wanted to say something positive as some of the reviews are completely inaccurate.

The hotel offers a beachside view. If desired, you can take a refreshing shower at the hotel or unwind on the shaded terrace. The room, although compact, is tastefully adorned and equipped with all desirable amenities such as a kettle, cups, and an exceedingly comfortable bed. A quaint balcony is also part of the package. While air-conditioning is absent, leaving the windows ajar at night allows you to relish the refreshing ocean breeze of Santander. Conveniently, a supermarket is within strolling distance, alongside numerous other shops and restaurants. Several public transportation choices are also a brief walk away, facilitating easy access to the old town.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay, finding absolutely no aspects of our accommodation to dislike. It was an exceptional experience that I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone within my circle of acquaintances and beyond. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to do it again myself. Looking forward to the next time!

Great location close to the beach. Decoration of room & common areas was nice. Good storage space in the room. Decent breakfast included.

The room was quite small & opposite reception so some noise experienced. Had a problem with shower leaking onto floor. No tea/coffee sachets in the room.

This hotel is like stepping back in time to someone’s home. The wall are covered in paintings, the furnishings are ornate, the atmosphere is quaint. However the facilities are modern and whilst the room is petite it has french doors that open onto a terrace to sit in. It was about 30 steps from the beach and parklands and with wonderful sites and historical sites within walking distance. I loved it. Nothing

Nothing

Very cosy hotel. My room was small but big enough for just one person to spend one night. Right temperature at night. Comfy bed.

Breakfast needs a lot of improvement: not fresh juice, not fresh pastries - only processed baked cakes. No fruit. Only sandwich bread to make toasts. Some fresh bread would have been great. You can hear your neighbours.

Very close to the beach and supermarkets. Staff are so helpful.

Not very clean. Stained towel and bed sheets. 3rd floor no elevator.
