I have stayed here before. A comfortable room with wuiet air-conditioning, a good shower, and a jacuzzi (but the wardrobe is very small). The swimming pool and sun terrace is very good, with cute little turtles in the adjacent fishpond. Next year I will use one of their electric bikes to go to the beach.

A real gem in Santillana

Good location, excellent welcome. Room was large and the pool and outside bar area were very relaxing. Very good breakfast buffet but the best impression came from the superb staff who were all really friendly, helpful and actually looked as though they enjoyed their jobs. Easy walk into town

Oasis in a busy town

Superb modern hotel within easy walking distance of the town’s attractions. The bedroom was very well equipped and the king size bed was fabulously comfortable. As we had torrential rain during our stay, we were glad of indoor garage. But for the rain, we would probably have tried one of the many nearby restaurants as the hotel only has a limited choice cafeteria but the food and service were excellent and very modestly priced. Breakfast was copious and delicious. We will return!

What a great hotel. LOVED IT!

LOVED this hotel so much I returned on the same trip for two more nights. The rooms were fab, individually designed, clean, with fab bathrooms. Not at all noisy, even in the road side rooms. Lots of lovely staff. Well designed exterior areas, although I wasn't keen on the white loungers (personal preference). Only negative was the pricey parking. It is possible topar very close for a third of the price. Oh, also in an amazing location and extremely close to the village and all the amenities.

A beautiful hotel.

An amazing stay. We only booked one night as we were travelling on the ferry back to the uk the following day. The hotel was so lovely and the staff were very welcoming. We had cocktails and wine in the lovely garden when we arrived. A lovely place to sit. Breakfast the following morning was the best we had during our trip to Spain. We will definitely stay again. Thank you.
