Really lovely building, felt very authentic. The pool was an added bonus. The room was big and had good facilities, the bed was very comfortable. Was a stone's throw from Santillana del mar, just outside of the village with parking. The breakfast for 10 euro was really good, you really got you're money's worth. Would really recommend this hotel, exceptional value for money. Staff were really nice and it's easy to visit surrounding towns.

This is a beautiful little medieval town with cobbled streets and impressive ancient buildings. A central feature is the large cathedral of Colegiata of St. Juliana, where you can visit the cloisters or attend Catholic mass. It stands in a square which is bordered by an art museum (Jesus Otero). A few cobbled streets run off the square, with plenty of restaurants and hotels to choose from. They are proud of their cheese and other local produce, so there are several shops dedicated to this. The Conventa Clarisas (convent of the poor Clares) is also very charming and is famous for its pastries for sale. We stayed in the beautiful Hotel Casa del Marques, whose staff were very friendly and welcoming, in a well-appointed and spacious room with large comfortable bed, seating areas and ensuite, all in keeping with the charming classic style of the hotel. We also spent a night at the Hotel los Infantes, which is impressively grand. It is easy to access this small town on foot, but it is possible to drive through the cobbled streets and there is a public car park which is free. The town is not actually on the coast, but is 10 minutes' drive from pretty local beaches.

This is a must-see, very beautiful town.
This is a must-see, very beautiful town. It is close to the Altamira Caves, although we decided not to visit them. We ate in a little restaurant at the square and the food was incredible and very cheap. We got to Santillana del Mar by car and it was easy to find, parking is available and overnight parking was free.

Santillana del Mar is a well preserved historic town in beautiful setting. Lovely to walk the cobbled streets and soak in the ambiance of the old town. The Catholic Church was really interesting as was local museum- downside was no English signage in either.
Barely 2km from town is the astounding Cave of Altamira and museum. They have protected these prehistoric caves by building a museum containing an accurate replica of the caves and artwork. That alongside a fascinating exhibition of the era concerned made for a compelling visit. In high season, best to get there early as there are limited numbers going through the museum. Lovely walking through area and viewing (from distance) original cave entrance. Beautifully maintained and very helpful staff. Information in Spanish & English.
Multitude of cafe/restaurants in old town with great food

This place is unique, as are each of the houses / places to stay - so much character! The church of Santa Juliana is a gem, and the 12th century cloister is amazing. The village is a lovely blend of culture and country - incredible architecture and free-range chickens / horses. Altogether delightful!

Santillana del Mar is a beautiful village with some lovely buildings but is leaning towards being overly touristy and much of what was on sale was repetitive and not great quality.
However, it has a superb ceramics shop - if you are interested in lovely pieces then do visit ARPA.Also a lovely little leather goods sho[ and a couple of decent jewellers .

This is a wonderful rural property overlooking the beautiful town of Santillana del Mar. It was a short drive or walk into town and a reasonable drive to the Picos de Europa.
We were a group of 5 and found the house had everything we needed and had comfortable beds. It is peaceful, scenic and charming. We would definitely stay again.
The owner met us to let us in. Although language was a difficulty he was welcoming and managed to explain all we needed to know. Thank you, Jesus, for a very enjoyable stay.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. We were made to feel very at home. The hotel was impressively decorated in a classic style with seating areas both in and outside which were very comfortable and suitable for quiet drinks and lounging/reading after a day out. The room was spacious and well-decorated with comfortable seating and a very large comfortable bed. Breakfast was buffet style offering a large selection, with hot food (e.g. scrambled eggs with bacon) made to order.
Our room was lovely and clean. Breakfast was very good at additional price. The staff is pleasant. You can walk to medieval town. It is truly lovely when all the buses leave.....magical!!!!!!! This hotel has an outdoor patio with chairs and tables where we would sit and drink wine at night. The room has no air condition......I would NOT stay there in July or Aug!!!!!! We slept with windows open on 2 floor....nice breeze. I would recommend this hotel but NOT in summer!!!!!!
Good location on the road close to the old town of Santillana del Mar, about 10 minutes walking, where you can find restaurants or you can drive about 8 km to Suances beach with many places to eat. There is a private parking at the hotel. Room was good at the ground floor with terrace, very quiet at night. Good A/C and wifi. There is an outdoor pool but with no shades. The breakfast was good. The hotel is about 2 km from Altamira Caves Museum.
This is the high end of accommodation in Santillana del Mar. Situated centrally and it has parking. The restaurant looked a bit stuffy (though i'm sure the food was fabulous).Did not have the Euro 20 breakfast buffet. Considering the price I paid for the room I thought charging for the bottle of water left in the room was a bit mean. otherwise, no complaints. The room and staff were lovely
Old traditional and very stylish house right in the center of Santillana with safe private parking; our room was immaculate, beautiful and had a very modern and stylish bath; superb breakfast; the manager and ‚Jack of all Trades‘ Raff was very friendly, witty and helpful with different recommendations concerning i.e. trips to the near coast or our further journey through Spain
This is in an unbelievable old building that is marvelously restored. All floors are chucked full of antiques. A pleasant sitting area in the lobby and bar. Be sure to visit the 2nd floor sitting room.
They provide one of the top 4 breakfasts we have had on our Camino hike of the del Norte, 17 different hotels to date.
Breakfast was excellent. Staff were very helpful. Everything was spotless with great attention to detail including the garage! Very comfy bed. A few minutes walk to the centre of Santillana del mar. A few minutes drive to see the impressive caves of Altamira. Used it as a base to visit different areas of Cantabria.
It’s just a very lovely traditional house in a small village in attractive countryside and less than 15 mins easy walk into the very beautiful Santillana Del Mar. The hostess and her family are very nice people. Excellent value.
Beautiful 15th century palacio in a fantastic medieval town. The hotel exudes 100s of years of history and great character. The receptionist was very personable and very helpful. She is truly an asset to this great hotel.
Extremely hospitable staff, charming hotel with memorabilia representative of old Spain, including an incredible clock collection. Could not be better situated, right opposite the pedestrian entrance to the old city.
Great value hotel and half board very reasonable. Roof on my car was broken and the receptionist arranged for a tarpaulin and close parking to keep the car dry and safe overnight. Excellent service thank you.
The hotel is a very old building and the owners have kept it that way. Tons of character. Right on the main street with lots of restaurants around. Room was comfortable. Breakfast was good.
The staff spoke surprisingly good English. She was very helpful. The location is perfect for Altamira museum and Santillana del Mar. Quiet place with plenty of parking in the yard.
Very friendly staff, clean room, two minutes walking from the pedestrian area of Santillana del Mar, 4 minutes by car to the museum of Altamira, simple breakfast.
