NH Ciudad de Santander

8/10 Good
"This is a nice nh hotel in Santander . The parking was convenient . It’s near a very good restaurant called “El Bonito “ which was recommended by our receptionist. The breakfast buffet was average and was not so good compared tot the other nh hotels though the service here is better . Since this is an nh collection and not an nh cuidad .. the amenities are not very good. I didn’t see a gym in the hotel . The lobby was nice but sparse . But what stands out is the service . I had a small statue of Our Lady of the Pilar about 2 inches in size and was broken . The handyman of the hotel fixed it . I forgot to give him a tip . The reception was also good as the receptionist tipped us the best restaurant in the neighborhood ( their albondigas made out of tuna is the best ) . Though this is not the best among the nh hotels that we stayed at, I still highly recommend this hotel due to its location and proximity to the city center , the Centro Botin ( Santander’s version of the Guggenheim) and its proximity to the beaches .

The long stretches of beach (with specific areas and times for dogs) and the numerous parks, such as the Jardines de Piquío, make it easy to exercise pets.
How do I ensure I have booked a pet-friendly room in Santander?
To ensure you've booked a pet-friendly room on Expedia, use the filters in your search and select "Pet friendly" under the "Amenities" section. This will narrow your options to properties that allow pets. Once you find a hotel you're interested in, click on it and review the "Policies" section for specific details about their pet policy. This often includes information about pet types, size restrictions, fees, and whether pets are allowed in all rooms or only certain ones.When selecting your room type, read the room description to check that its pet-friendly, as not all rooms in a pet-friendly hotel may accommodate pets. For added peace of mind, contact the hotel directly to confirm the room you've selected allows pets.
