La Casa del Organista, hotel in Santillana del Mar

Housed in a traditional, mountain property dating from the 18th century, La Casa del Organista is a lovely, rustic-style hotel, located in Cantabria, near Santander.

First and foremost, the staff were exceptional. Not only were they incredibly friendly, but they were also a wealth of knowledge when it came to local information. Whether I needed recommendations for dining, sightseeing, or exploring the area, they were always ready to provide the very best suggestions, making my stay even more memorable. The lodge's location is another highlight. Situated right in the heart of the historical part of Santillana del Mar, it offered the perfect blend of convenience and authenticity. Despite being nestled in the midst of such rich history, the lodge still managed to provide ample parking spots, making it incredibly convenient for travelers like myself. As for the accommodations themselves, they were nothing short of delightful. The building exuded historical charm, while the rooms were impeccably clean and comfortable. It was evident that great care had been taken to ensure guests' comfort, and I couldn't have asked for a better place to unwind after a day of exploring. Overall, my experience at this lodge was nothing short of exceptional. From the friendly and knowledgeable staff to the convenient yet authentic location, it truly exceeded all my expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Santillana del Mar.

Hotel Siglo XVIII, hotel in Santillana del Mar

Located in Santillana del Mar near the Cantabrian coastline, this hotel dating from the 18th century is equipped and decorated to help you relax.

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.

La Casona de Revolgo, hotel in Santillana del Mar

This charming country-style hotel is set in a restored 17th-century house in central Santillana del Mar. Each room is individually decorated and includes a spa bath and free Wi-Fi.

Location was great as was breakfast. Excellent orange juice! Room was larger than usual even though it was a triple room. Staff made everything possible to make us feel at home and gave us plenty of information. They even drove us to the Neocueva because the taxi would take too long, that is great service!!!

    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 hosteria has an excellent location, on the main road into town 3 minutes from where the bus drops you in the city, minutes from everything but not in the tourist-overloaded center. (Note: google maps has location wrong if searching by address, but correct if searching by name). It was spotlessly clean, quiet at night, had a well-appointed room with a refrigerator with bottles of water, toiletries in the bathroom. No breakfast but owner told me of a delicious buffet breakfast 2 minutes away at Hotel La Casona de Revolgo.

    Love this hotel in the centre of Santillana. We stopped off before catching the ferry the next day, so handy for Santander. It is a smaller Parador which I prefer. Very friendly service throughout. Lovely old building and fabulous landing where the bedrooms on first floor leed off. All stylised in keeping with this lovely old building. Food I felt was better than some of the other Paradores we stayed at on our trip. Whilst it doesn't advertise car charging, we were able to charge our electric car in the garage there.

    The Hotel was great, right at the entrance of the old town. The staff was great about letting us know best places to eat and about where to park etc. This is an old building and it doesn't have elevators, but the staff took up our luggage. Also, it doesn't have air conditioner, we just went last week (at the end of July) and we didn't really need it, opening the windows was enough to sleep fresh. We highly recommend this hotel.

    The location was very good at the edge of a quiet and pleasant hamlet only a few kms from Santillana del Mar. The geothermal heating system was impressively warm giving plenty of hot water too. There was a very spacious and well equipped modern bathroom suite. Parking provided in a private off road parking bay right next to the accomodation.

    To be met by Beatrix who called me by my name even though we'd never met was amazing! The location is perfect for exploring both Santillana del Mar and surrounding areas. Located on the edge of the village only 2-3 minutes into the centre was great. The building and rooms were comfortable and very much in keeping with the area. Thank you!
