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.

It was perfect. The breakfast was plentiful and right there in your room ready for you to prepare when you wanted it, and replenished each day. The room was large and bed extremely comfy. Loved the added jacuzzi in the room too!

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.
Friendly welcome and staff. Spacious room and bathroom in colonial style with plafond ventilator. Fantastic location for visiting Santillana del Mar. The hotel has an open-air car park behind the hotel (not to confuse with the car park of the neigbouring hotel where we mistakenly parked first). Great breakfast. Upon arrival the hotel excused itself for the WIFI which was temporarily out of order. However, the repair man just left and the WIFI signal was excellent during our stay!
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.
For us, this hotel had it all: great location (just outside busy touristy center), easy parking (out front for free or for just €10,= /day inside), nice pool, great bar (inside and out), great breakfast, very nice comfy room, mostly at the back which made it quiet. Recommendations for restaurants although they have there own (go to Gran Duques!) and the close proximity to Altamira and the historical center of Santillana del Mar. We loved it!
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.
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.
I liked almost everything. The hotel is elegant, as if belonging to a village nobleman. Very charming rooms full of antique furniture and beautiful paintings. Comfortable rooms. Good service. Great food. The breakfast buffet is top.
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.
We loved everything about this hotel. The room was charming and comfortable . The staff went out of their way to help us with suggestions for restaurants and the best route to take for our next destination. Highly recommended.
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.
Friendly family welcome. Room extremely tasteful and clean. Lovely garden to sit in. Santillana del Mar very close by. Lovely continental breakfast. Would stay here again.
Centrally located in Santillana del Mar with attractive looking communal facilities, outdoor seating area (though with only 6 seats) and parking. Staff spoke good English.
A beautiful historic property right in the center of town, easy walk to museums and other sights and resturants. Bar and resturant in hotel. Very comfortable bed.
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.
