The hotel is charming and immaculate; even the garage is well lit, attractive, and clean. It even smelled good! I was impressed with the attention to detail.
Our room (104) had a nice patio facing the street, screened from view and lovely for sharing a bottle of cider and some cheeses.
We only stayed for a night and didn’t even try the restaurant, but the Cuevas would have been a lovely base for longer.

Really lovely building, felt very authentic. The pool was an added bonus. The room was big and had good facilities, the bed was very comfortable. Was a stone's throw from Santillana del mar, just outside of the village with parking. The breakfast for 10 euro was really good, you really got you're money's worth. Would really recommend this hotel, exceptional value for money. Staff were really nice and it's easy to visit surrounding towns.

A pretty town, famous for being one, and for the Altamira cave. Altamira is primarily a museum now as the cave is off limits; at the museum you can tour a reproduction. Nevertheless it’s an important site and the town, though very touristy, makes a good base for exploring the Cantabrian coast west of Santander.

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!

Our second stay in Sep 2023. A different room this time - outside the main building. Not as good as our previous room but to be expected as a little older I suspect. Great location for Santander and the beautiful town of Santillana del Mar. Great hospitality, lovely breakfasts, tranquil location in quiet countryside location off the beaten track. Superb gardens. Very Dog friendly which is a bonus for us.
the location was great for being in Santillana del Mar. The apartment was roomy, nicely furnished and clean. The hot water was exceptional! The bed was very comfortable. We did not use the kitchen to cook but it seemed very complete and it would have been easy to prepare meals in it. The garden was beautiful and we had a nice little patio outside the living room area.
My stay was simply amazing. Rafa (the host) is extremely welcoming and professional...a super host. Nothing to add. The building is very well maintained and clean, the room was comfortable with a view on one old street of Santillana del Mar. I enjoyed the breakfast very much on the terrace with a view over the countryside.
Great location. On a quiet street but very close to the main part of Santillana del Mar. The view from our room was amazing--reminded me of Tuscany. We were driving, so the provided parking was very welcome. Staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good.
Lovely hotel. Nice location with a short walk to the old city and a 2 km walk to the Altamira Cave. The room was cozy and spacious and with a balcony, gave us the opportunity to sit and listen to the rain. The staff was friendly and helpful.
Beautiful and historic manor house. You feel you are staying in a home rather than a hotel. The garden is lovely and great for enjoying drinks. The staff is extremely helpful. This is an one of a kind place to stay.
The staff are friendly, although we only speak a little bit Spanish, they are very helpful.
The room is very spacious, clean and nice. Located very close to the city centre of Santillana del Mar.
Love it!
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
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.
