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 .

I cannot rate this place highly enough. I got there at 10am and knew my room would not be ready. Rafi took my bag , took me to the car park and when I told him I had travelled through the night and would need to sleep in the afternoon, he changed my room to the quietest part of the hotel so I would not be disturbed. Breakfast was continental but had everything from freshly made toast to hams cheeses eggs and pastries plus freshly squeezed orange juice and delicious coffee. A wonderful start to my Camino journey. I hope to return
Apartamentos Santillana del Mar offers a delightful stay with its central location near the historic centre, restaurants, and bus stop. The place is clean and cosy, featuring a well-equipped kitchen with dishes and cutlery, plus a washing machine and drying rack for convenience. The outdoor area is a nice touch for relaxing. Communication with the owner is accessible, making the experience smooth and enjoyable. It's like having a small family house all to yourself. Highly recommended for a comfortable and central stay.
Breakfast was quite nice. They required guests to select one of three hour long windows the night before. Parking behind the hotel was available by prearrival request. Or you can use the public parking lot to the right just after you turn off of the the main road. When you enter the old town where the hotel is located you see signage that indicates no entry entry. Authorized vehicles only. Ignore this you are authorized. The hotel provided detailed directions
Property had the feel of a "mini parador" and it was shame that bar area was closed. It looked very comfortable and civilised. Parking on the road opposite was fine for our motorbikes and it was an easy walk into the old town. Room large with a small balcony and the beds were comfortable. Brekky room a little characterless and not in keeping with the rest of the hotel but we would certainly go back for a night before/after a ferry crossing
We liked everything in this very nice hotel: warm welcome, hotel close to the historic centre, calm, clean, comfortable, full of character, with a super breakfast but , most of all, a staff who gave us lots of interesting advice to visit the city and the surroundings, to find a nice place to eat, to explain the route and points of interest in the Picos of Europa. We can only recommend this great place. Thank you for everything.
We were met by Angela who gave us a thorough introduction to the area. The location, environment and apartment itself were very good. The accommodation is about a 15 minute walk from Santillana del Mar but we thoroughly enjoyed the rural setting and walk into town. The apartment was comfortable and satisfied most of our needs in terms of facilities.
The style of the room was authentic to the age of the hostal in the old part of Santillana Del Mar. The room was clean and comfortable and as a family, we loved it. The beds were very comfortable we slept really well in them. There were 2 electric radiators to heat up the room as well.
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
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.
This was a one-night stop before our ferry to the UK. It was a tremendous find. The hotel was situated in an old building which provided a terrific ambiance. For the price it was excellent.
The staff spoke surprisingly good English. She was very helpful. The location is perfect for Altamira museum and Santillana del Mar. Quiet place with plenty of parking in the yard.
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.
Beautiful little hotel with fantastic breakfast. Very reasonable price. Very friendly staff. Close to everything. Loved it here and they stored my bicycle. Fantastic shower too.
We were in Santillana Del Mar to visit the nearby caves. The location was fantastic, just a sort drive away. We were also close enough to walk to town. Totally perfect!!
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.
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.
Location was perfect and the staff were great. Old quirky hotel with a nice little restaurant downstairs. If you get parking out front it is very convenient.
Lovely old hotel adorned with period-appropriate furnishings. The hosts were marvelous and the location couldn’t be better. Breakfast was out of this world.
Characterful and high quality hotel. Unusual bedrooms and unsuited bathrooms. Very comfortable. Tea and coffee making facilities and complimentary items.
