I cannot rate the hotel staff - all of them - highly enough they were all exceptional. Lovely boutique hotel with pool and well appointed restaurant. This is a small town and parking was it a premium so the underground car park - €12 a day was worth it.

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 .

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!!!!!!
Lovely rural apartment a short walk from the beautiful Santillana del Mar which has numerous restaurants, bars and a couple of supermarkets. The apartment itself is very peaceful and set in well maintained gardens. The decoration stylish and yet still cosy. The host was very helpful and provided plenty of useful local information for my stay. I stayed in the winter, but would definitely go back for the summer weather to explore the area more.
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.
Our second stay in Sep 2023. A different room this time - outside the main building. Not as good as our previous room but to be expected as a little older I suspect. Great location for Santander and the beautiful town of Santillana del Mar. Great hospitality, lovely breakfasts, tranquil location in quiet countryside location off the beaten track. Superb gardens. Very Dog friendly which is a bonus for us.
This is a gem of a property, our host Martina shows how these places can be run efficiently, breakfast is basic but excellent and enough for us . Martina speaks English and has good advice as to the local area which is the reason we were there, Santillana del Mar is only 15 minutes walk and is a stunning medieval town, many restaurants and bars although not all open when tourist season is coming to a close.
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
Nice clean warm room in a quaint stone inn, minutes to the historic center of Santillana del Mar. We took shelter from the constant and heavy rain this week. The owner wasn't able to be there to greet us but made sure our needs were met, and although we didn't opt for the breakfast, gave us coffee at no charge.
Lovely hotel. Nice location with a short walk to the old city and a 2 km walk to the Altamira Cave. The room was cozy and spacious and with a balcony, gave us the opportunity to sit and listen to the rain. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Beautiful and historic manor house. You feel you are staying in a home rather than a hotel. The garden is lovely and great for enjoying drinks. The staff is extremely helpful. This is an one of a kind place to stay.
Beautiful room on a lovely rural area, peace and quiet just a few steps from Santillana del Mar. Liliana (the manager) is super friendly and accommodating to every need. Breakfast is great. 100% recommended
We love that this beautifully appointed little hotel, perfectly situated, has remained affordable. Thank you so much for that. It's a great alternative to an albergue while on the Camino
One of the best hotels we stayed in during our trip. The room was clean and spacious. The host was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast easily as good or better than most restaurants.
Great location, very close and walkable to the center of Santillana Del Mar. Beatriz is very accommodating and takes the time to make recommendations of things to see in the area.
