I love Santander. They speak a pure Castilian Spanish there. Good gor learners of the language. I was able to use my Spa
Pros:

Excellent. Lobby very impressive. Lifts good. Doorbell on room door. Electronic do not disturb switch. Phone in the bathroom. Bidet in bathroom.Most other things one would in a 4star hotel.

Cons:

The bed was uncomfortable. Also I wanted a double bed but there were two singles side by side with separate bedding, even though they were pushed together. Some other guests were very inconsiderate when it came to their noise making. I had already move room after requesting it due to a neighbourhood dog barking very loudly; but in my new room there was a change of guests in the adjacent room during my stay. A couple were being very vocally loud late at night into the early hours. I phoned reception and they were kind enough to phone the noisy room to let them know. Then the following night a new guest could be heard. At first I tolerated the bumping about, assuming he was just moving in. Then in the early hours after 01:00 am he started playing a very loud American Game Show on a device maybe a laptop. Again I called reception and they called him.
So apart from the inevitable thin walls the rooms are very good. The bathroom is excellent. There is a coffee maker. You can ask the room-cleaning staff for more when you've run out. This was my third stay at this hotel. My best stay was a January, perhaps because of fewer people. My second stay was a March. Which was also good but a little busier. This third stay was between 9th and 13th April and was much busier. I may go again in November in the hope of fewer guests.

Прекрасен град! Прекрасни плаживе! Прекрасна храна! Прекрасен хотел!
Pros:

Страхотна локация в най- хубавият квартал в Сантандер / El Sardinero .
Закуската ми се видя скъпа и не съм се възползвал от тази у-га.
За 52 евро на ден за двама възрастни с дете може да закусвате и да обядвате в зоната.
(Предполагам,че за тази сума закуската е била превъзходна)

-Хотелът ни осигури безплатно такси от летището.
-Поради ранният ни полет, направих запитане за възмоност за по - ранно настанява и това беше съобразено и изпълнено. ( Имайте предвид,че е възможно само ако стаята ви е готова ).

Един от най хубавите пплажове е на 3 мин. от хотела.
Ежедневно почистване на стаята , подмяна на кърпи и хигиенизиране.
Стаята разполага с кафе машина и хладилни- От хотел ежедневно ни осигяваха капсули с кафе и минерална вода.
