Situated in Santander, 2.9 km from Playa Los Peligros, SUITE HAUS BAHIA features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and express check-in and check-out. This recently renovated apartment is located 1.5 km from Santander Port and 1.9 km from Puerto Chico. The apartment has family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests.

A new apartment with everything you need - or think of - was in the apartment. It was a joy to come back to after exploring the town and surrounds. Being handy to the train and bus station is a bonus, and it is also close to the centre of town. Entry off the street was apreciated by my old and deteriorating kness! Communication with Javier was excellent, and the recommendations of restaurants etc was very helpful. Highly recommended

    Lovely big room, very clean with two huge beds just for me. Nicely decorated, tasteful lighting, and large TV. Coffee machine, ac. A huge bathroom with rain shower in a big cubicle. All spotlessly clean. Location is up the hill but there's a lift which goes down one level and then on the way back up you have escalators which made it easy to access the hotel. The seafront and many bars and restaurants are minutes away. Lovely friendly staff.
