Rolling Hills, Magnificent Gardens and Sandy Beaches
On the north coast of Spain, the seaside city of Santander is the capital of Cantabria. This beautiful city has it all: from stunning beaches and green gardens to captivating museums and a bustling central area.
Overlooking the lighthouse of the Mauro Island, the popular sandy beach of Sardinero is divided by the gardens of Piquio. These magnificent gardens feature Canarian palm trees, blue eucalyptus and colorful flower beds.
Located on the Magdalena Peninsula, the imposing Palacio de la Magdalena has a neoclassic French and English style. Wander around the green gardens and visit the small zoo, home to penguins, seals and other sea animals.
The Cathedral of Santander is a historic landmark in the center of the city. Built between the 12th and 14th centuries, this historic monument consists of two Gothic churches. The Alameda de Oviedo Boulevard is a shopping paradise where you can find everything you need.
Enjoy a walk on the wide seaside promenade, where you'll find a big selection of cafés and restaurants to choose from. Booking.com offers a variety of hotels, guesthouses and apartments in the area. The international Santander Airport is the only one in Cantabria.
I saw lots of reviews recommending this town. It was not for me. The planetarium, which many raved about? Closed. Has been closed for a while, actually. And apparently when it was open, it wasn't open to walk-ins. Tour groups only, pre-booked, minimum of 5 people.
Many restaurants were reservation only, actually. Many more were closed.
Saw my first homeless tent encampment ten minutes after arriving in the city. Graffiti everywhere. So many ATMs on Google maps, marked closed. Shops closed or going out of business. "Rebajas" signs everywhere. So many multi-lingual beggars.
Lots of smashed windows, sadly. The town looked like some of the worse areas of other cities I've been to, but all over. Even the church, which was recommended as a very nice building, had homeless and beggars in it. I was there on Sunday (so many things closed) and Monday. For a place supposedly well known for it's meals of fresh fish, mine was bland at best. For a Spanish town, surprisingly few tapas places.

Santander is so quaint.
Santander is so quaint. The historic buildings are beautiful. There are so many bars, tapas bars and restaurants everything is so easy to find and within walking distance. It just felt so clean and just a lovely place to visit we will be back. We went to Bilbao for the day on the bus from the bus station, but pre book your seats as it’s always busy. It takes about 1.5 hours but well worth it then you can jump on the tram line into the centre
There were too many bars and restaurants to mention but the one right outside the hotel was wonderful too.

We used Santander as a base to explore prehistoric caves, historical sites and the surrounding parks. Six days barely got us started. I will say going in January worked well as temperatures were mild and rain was sporadic. We didn’t leave enough time to explore all the city but people were friendly, there were new things to see everywhere and the food is great.

My wife and I have visited Santander on several occasions, but did not go into the city centre on this occasion as we wanted a hotel that was within a short journey to the airport for an early flight the following morning. The Hotel Chiqui facing the Sardinero beach fitted our requirements perfectly.

We came out of season when the weather was cooler.
We came out of season when the weather was cooler. We loved Santander … lovely green spaces , bars and restaurants . It was great value for money and w e also loved how clean and cared for the city was. We will definitely return.
The location - just a few moments walk into the city centre and a very pleasant 20 min walk to the El Sardinero beach area. Contemporary rooms with some lovely complementary touches - snacks and drinks.
The staff are incredibly helpful with their local knowledge and their English is impeccable.
Look forward to returning one day, maybe to the new property next door which is opening imminently and looks to be a beautiful building.
Well done to Jorge and his team. Exceptional customer service and a delightful hotel.
A big thank you to Sira for excellent communications before we arrived in Santander then agreeing to meet us at the apartment and allowing us early access. Once we managed up the 6 flights of stairs (thanks again to Sira for her assistance) we found that the apartment was as we expected and very clean too. Good facilities for making a snack or light meal. Location is excellent for walking into the centre or eastwards to the beaches.
Love the little thoughtful details, truly local products breakfast at the room, candies , drinks ..every detail was thoroughly thought of. I have been in many hotels in Spain, also with international scope and this is certainly the one where I most felt spoiled and that I cared as a guest. Right from the warm welcome including a drink. Room was new, neat , comfortable.. everything felt good!
Very central hotel right in the middle of Santander. Hosted in a historic building, but the rooms are nice and modern. Staff were friendly and helpful with various things for my trip. Breakfast was held in another airy room and made for a nice morning in the middle of Santander. Around the area there's plenty of shops, bars and restaurants, the good beaches are a bus/boat ride away.
The hotel is even better than the pictures suggest. An old facade but an ultra modern interior. Good parking under the hotel, good sized room and a great location on a a lovely beach.
The staff were great, universally warm, friendly and went out of their way to help.
We will certainly return if we take the ferry to Santander again.
Motorcycle friendly hotel with secure off street parking near the beach at Santander. Excellent staff allowed an early check in and gave great advice re where to go and what to do. Comfortable well appointed room with balcony and beach views. Lovely restaurant with a surprising good set menu for diner.
we booked the unit last minute and the team was very helpful accommodating our schedule.
thank you Yolanda for allowing us to enter early and thanks to Mar for moving our items around.... without their help this visit to santander would not work out.
I wish I had more days to spend in cantabria
Almost everything. Our room (227) was high-ceilinged, spacious and bright because of the two huge windows. Close to a lot of restaurants, beachfront and there's a supermarket behind the hotel. The receptionist named Raquel is kind enough to grant my request for a late check in (an hour longer).
Love this hotel. Staff are really helpful. Allowed us to check in early after an horrendous journey.
Rooms comfortable, bathrooms supplied with lovely lotions etc. Great position, short walk to the sea front. A little oasis if calm. Excellent.
Parking 15 euros a night but worth it.
The silence in the hotel and rooms. The breakfast room organised very well.
The position of the hotel right next to the Sandinero beach, plus plenty of good places to eat, the hotel restaurant was particularly good.
Excellent bus service into central Santander
The staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel was clean and modern. The location is fantastic, overlooking the beach and a quick taxi ride to Santander city centre or a lovely walk along the coast. There is a good restaurant and small infinity pool.
Hotel staff members were friendly and helpful. Our room was very clean, well furnished, and comfortable. We ate dinner both nights in the hotel's restaurant and thoroughly enjoyed both meals. All in all, we had a great stay at the Hotel Victoria.
Very close to the centre of Santander and made for a good first night in Spain after driving off the ferry. Nice places to eat nearby. Parking close to the apartment for a good price.
A great location with parking, just a short walk from the beach. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was modern and very clean. Highly recommend.
