Sadly the walk into the rural area was blocked by road works constructing a new bridge. It is in a semi industrial area however there is a nice garden and quiet lane behind the hotel.

The room was large and very comfortable. Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. The atmosphere in the bar was welcoming. The location was very convenient and ample parking with easy access very helpful with 2 dogs!

Nothing.

The rooms were very comfortable. Value for money is excellent. The location of the hotel is perfect for the ferry.

It was a cool evening and we expected the heating in the room to come on...but it didn't. This didn't spoil our stay but perhaps should be noted for stays at this time of year.( November )

We like the location only 20 minutes from Santander. A hotel visited by plenty of locals giving the bar a great atmosphere. Shame access to a river walk is currently out of use.

the cafe/bar was occupied by locals smoking and playing cards etc. nothing wrong with that of course but it would have been nice to have places where you could sit quietly.

nice place, nice rooms. convenient for Santander ferry.

We stopped at the hotel on our way to Arrasate. The place is nice and clean, besides there was a wonderful playground 5 minutes walk from the hotel. The only gripe was that I couldn't turn the central heating down. I tried two ways, but in the end had to sleep with the window open. P.S. I still can't get used to Spanish eating habits, the dinner was served from 20 00, which was way to late for my 3 year old son 🙃

Normally the bar area provides food but on this occasion only limited snacks were available. However even they were quite substantial...and good value.

Whilst Viveda is somewhat industrial the Hotel is in a pleasant residential area with easy access to a riverside walk...excellent for dog walkers ! As well as a restaurant the bar area is also pleasant and spacious.Great to see many locals enjoying themselves.

nothing. All good.

Easy to find and ideal for getting to ferry. we were able to park egg inside the hotel. Helpful and welcoming staff. Comfortable bed and lovely powerful shower. Really liked the bar with lots of friendly locals. We also enjoyed a good value 3 course meal in the restaurant.

Room very hot and no control on the radiator to turn heating down so had to have the window open all night which was noisy. When I left the girl at reception was not sure if payment had been taken and I was unable to check my credit cards this was frustrating as may have been charged twice.

Room was good and had a bath with plenty of hot water. It was popular with locals and had a cafe/bar which is a bonus. Set evening menu which included wine at a reasonable price

Very functional! Good service! Great food convenient to the Camino del Norte!

Noisy and busy bar full of men playing cards /lottery - too busy to get a table for a drink and a snack ! Breakfast in the dining room also too busy with visiting basketball team taking all the food from the buffet (just bad timing!)

Comfortable beds - good access to Santander ferry about 20 minutes

Close to the camino del norte. We had cold beers in the cafe after our walk in the afternoon, and an excellent dinner at their restaurant in the evening.

Stayed in September 2023

Dinner and breakfast were awful. Maybe we were unlucky to be there when a large party arrived.

The location was a bit strange inasmuch as it was on the opposite river bank to an enormous noisy factory. Fortunately neither the noise nor the smell intruded. The bar had more of an atmosphere of a village pub with a lot of locals noisily playing cards. Tapas were visually non-existent. We didn't stay therefore. Staff could benefit from smiling lessons.

Great staff but limited amenities and the location is challenging.
