Albergue Gándara, hotel in Santillana del Mar

This renovated, 16th-century palace is set in a pedestrianised area of Santillana del Mar’s historic town centre. It lies just a few metres from Plaza Mayor and La Colegiata Románica.

The room was big and spacious, particularly for an albergue. Although the bathroom and facilities were dated they were very clean and functional. Big outdoor space with bar and cats 😃

Hostel de las Facultades, hotel in Santillana del Mar

Located in Santander, Hostel de las Facultades features free WiFi throughout the property.

Easy to park, Antonio on reception couldn't have been nicer, or more helpful. Room and bathroom both smart and scrupulously clean and comfortable. Nothing fancy. Very quiet. Short walk to a pharmacy, a supermarket and a large comfortable bar with decent prices and nice food. It's a fine place to overnight before catching the flight back to Edinburgh in the morning. Great, circular bus services running outside with stops nearby 7C1 into town and 7C2 back to the Hostel €1.30 per person per journey, or Antonio will call for a taxi for you €7 down to Mesón Rampalay (legendary traditional bar with excellent pinchos, charcuterie, seafood and rice dishes) behind the Paseo de Pereda. It was great 30 years ago and it's still great now. Thoroughly recommended.

    Beautiful building in a gorgeous town. Quaint. Charming. Lovely woodwork all around inside the hostel all hand built by the owners who have their spectacular hand made furniture business next door! The hotel was clean and it felt safe. Great location to walk around town. Close to a nice restaurant, Casa Cossio, where they serve the best Cocido Montañés I’ve had in Cantabria!

    Great location close to the centre of the beautiful village of Santillana del Mar. Plenty of off street safe parking. Lovely looking property with country views to the village. Run by very friendly and helpful people. Room was clean and comfortable with a great shower. Would definitely stay again.
