It was a beautiful place that wasn't too big so not too busy. The pool was lovely. The spa in the room was great. We really enjoyed breakfast. There are some cafes across the road and the main street is only a few minutes away to walk to.

The staff at this small hotel are lovely, very welcoming, very helpful and greeting you with a smile. Restaurant/bar was small and intimate. we had dinner at the hotel and it was excellent, and very well priced. Breakfast was very good also, good selection of pastries, bread, yoghurt, ham and scrambled eggs. Cheese also, but I do not like cheese, so left alone!

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 .

The hotel looks amazing from the outside. It is a beautiful old stone building with a pretty garden. Inside is very inviting - it is full of character with antique furniture and pictures and lots of different rooms to sit in. Everything is very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the buffet breakfast and tried several homemade local special items. All the staff were very friendly and helpful and the location is perfect for exploring the very attractive village of Santillana del Mar.
Loved this small hotel, very modern, immaculate and very comfortable. View of the pool area from our room, which had a jacuzzi bath. Shame we couldn't use the pool or the pool area as it was too cold. Well made video about the hotel playing behind the reception desk. Close, 5 minute walk, to the lovely little town of Santillana del Mar, where there are a lot of old buildings and lots of restaurants. Fairly close to Santander so good for finishing a tour.
The bed and pillows were very comfy, the view is great, you can see the hill and the horses going about it :) the location is very convenient too, just 2 min walk to the main square. Also the parking is a great plus, is just on the side to the property and it is reserved for the hotel's guests (free of charge). We were very happy about it since we came to Santillana del Mar by car. I would suggest this hotel for sure!
Lovely Inn type building. We stayed for 5 nights. Approx a 10 minute walk into Santillana del Mar which was very busy so location good to be slightly out of the town. Family run business everyone made us very welcome. Room was basic. Beds comfy. Powerful shower. Restaurant served reasonably good food menu of the day at a excellent price.
Good location to explore the surrounding areas. Parking available.
The hotel is nestled in the surroundings of a very beautiful village. The staff was delightful from the moment we set foot inside. The room was truly comfortable and the bed, great. There are so many things to do and explore in and around the village; we will be back and will definitely stay at the hotel again.
Nice quirky hotel just outside the old part of the town. Easy to walk into the town and explore. Excellent final stop on a motorcycle tour of Northern Spain / Portugal and final stop before Santander ferry which is half an hour along the motorway. Plenty of available parking, decent meal.
Very close & walkable to the center of Santillana del Mar. 5 minute drive to Altamira or 20 minute walk (3km). Breakfast at 9am. Great check-in process and staff. Ample parking. Updated bathroom. Comfortable bed.
This a beautiful restored building.
We had a nice spacious room with a view over the fields and the village. An excellent designed modern bathroom. This place is better than many 4 star hotels!
I selected this hotel because it looked very quaint and Hospederia Santallina was quaint. The old walls were exposed and you got a feel for the age of the city.
Characterful and high quality hotel. Unusual bedrooms and unsuited bathrooms. Very comfortable. Tea and coffee making facilities and complimentary items.
Excellent apartment, had everything we needed. Easy 2 minute walk into Santillana del Mar. Lovely relaxing patio area overlooking the well kept gardens.
