Hotels near Santander Airport

Pros: We stayed for 3 nights at the Hostal Jardin Secreto. The place is very close to the train station, aprox 10-15 min walk. Also nearby you can find restaurants and bars. The hostal has 6 rooms all of them designed differently (as they are in the pictures) and a cozy, small garden in the back. The room in which we stayed was number 4, with light blue and silver design and a small balcony facing the garden. We appreciated very much the good mattress and the variety of pillows, the shower cabin (big enough for two) and the clothes hanger. In the morning they serve coffee/tea and some local pastry. The hostess was very friendly and helpful.

Pros: We received a wonderful welcome and our host was extremely friendly and helpful. The room was spotlessly clean and well appointed and very comfortable. Fantastic shower. It was an easy walk to the sea front and to the area of bars and restaurants, but a little away from them so we were in a real city amongst working people. A genuine Spanish experience. We hope to return to the lovely city of Santander and would certainly stay here again.

Cons: In the bar the table waiter continually ignored us. Served all the other tables and brought plates of chips. My husband had to go to the bar to be served. The only difference between us and the other customers appeared to be we were English. My husband did complain to the front desk but they weren't bothered.

Pros: Location

Cons: Bar. Also got poor guidance from concierge

Pros: The bed was very comfy.

Pros: We booked an economy room for 1 night it was excellent. Room was decorated to a very high standard, bed linen was crisp and lovely to sleep in. Would highly recommend for a couple of nights stay in the economy room has everything you need. Gluten free breakfast was good, could have improved by providing cereal, apart from that there was a good selection of normal things for breakfast, staff Adrian was very attentive and really informative about the area and good to improve our Spanish with.

Cons: Room we had was very dark and smelt a little musty although It did not feel damp. Some noise from the cafeteria around 6:30am as they prepared for breakfast. Walk into town is very steep coming back to the hotel.

Pros: Great location - view from room was superb, bonus of being in the roof. Parking was easy and breakfast good.

Cons: The air conditioning couldn't seem to cool our attic room. Staff tried to help but we were very hot every day and night of our stay

Cons: There was nothing to dislike although I found the breakfast somewhat expensive

Pros: Nice stylish hotel. Very clean and in super location! Bed was extraodrinary comfortable.

Pros: Super helpful and kind employees, great atmosphere and ambient.

Pros: New modern hotel with nice interiors, super clean, amazingly comfy bed, very quiet, nice staff, great location

Cons: I booked a single room but it had windows coming out to a tiny vent so felt super claustrophobic, plus it was on top floor and very hot so I paid a bit more and moved to a double room which was super narrow so you had to literally squeeze through to walk past the bed - if you're on a bigger/less flexible side I don't recommend you go for it (it was called budget double)

Pros: Location and near excellent restaurants. Great city!

Cons: Prices on weekend are much higher than other days. Not to much alternatives to eat in restaurant.

Pros: Lovely view of bay. Convenient for town centre and for ferry terminal. Very nice, helpful receptionist who my husband says was also very pretty!

Cons: Room was small for the price we paid, and breakfast was not included.

Cons: 1. WIFI does NOT work. Missed deadlines! I was unable to do work because of wifi not working, missed important deadlines! 2. Every door slams so loud that sounds like bomb. 3. Smells cheap and kinda nasty. 4. Receptionists are incompetent and showed attitude instead of trying to resolve the problems related o WIFI. 5. The day I was leaving they proposed to change room. I thought it was clear expression of mocking and making fun of a customer. 5. In room 506, there is a light on the building outside near the window, which so strong that at night seems like you are the beach in front of the sun and the curtains do not help. I am not a light sleeper and I fall asleep easily, during this 4 day stay I could not sleep because of that and extremely loud door slamming. Overall experience was horrible. I flew across the globe from Los Angeles for work and due to mainly almost not working WIFI my trip was next to nothing. I feel I was robbed. This hotel does not deserve to be 4 star one.

Tea making facilities, which we obtained on day two following our request. Two single beds Robes. We were deeply dissapointed that the package as illustrated on our booking confirmation was not available to us. The staff employed in our hotel advised me that they were unaware of this packadge and is not one they would normally deliver. They were in contact with you about our booking as as yet we have not heard from you.

Pros: Position, comfortable bed

Cons: Air conditioning not working, overpriced minibar, small room. I expect more for 80£/night especially in Santander.

Pros: This was another excellent modern hotel which we enjoyed staying at. It's a little way from the ferry port and railway stations, but after getting a taxi from the station when we arrived we found it was quite easy to walk to the town centre. The staff were friendly and the reception staff spoke good English. The gin and tonic in the bar was of gargantuan proportions - be warned!

Cons: The hotel is up quite a hill from the seafront: this wasn't a problem to us but might be for the less energetic. However, it is on a bus route.

Pros: Tea and coffee making facilities in the room. Excellent location.

Cons: The smell of drains in the bathroom.

Pros: All ok

Cons: Good location

Pros: Good situation and secure parking available. Friendly and efficient staff. Excellent for an overnight stay. A short walk to a square in the old town with bars and tapas.

Cons: The parking places too small

Pros: The location was across the street from the bus and rail stations. It is also close to restaurants and local attractions. Breakfast had a good selection and the staff was very attentive.

Pros: Customer Service, breakfast.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location is brilliant.

Pros: very attractive in city center next to main bus and train stations. Easy bus connection to/from airport no need for taxi.

Pros: Although the facade looks old, the hotel is ultra modern inside. The size of the room was extremely generous and a single bed was prepared, we assumed for the dogs bedding. The beds extremely comfortable and the room was exceptionally clean. Lots of toiletries available, ie tooth brush, comb, etc., the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Offering maps etc.,

Cons: The hotel is very central Santander, and on a Main Street. We spent an hour looking for a parking place. When we told the staff our parking problem, they directed us to parking in a municipal car park, free to guests. I don’t recall receiving directions to this car park when booking. If we had gone straight to the car park , even though we had to carry our bags back to hotel, our stay would have been perfect.

Cons: The air freshener provided in the room was quite intense and as a result needed to keep windows wide open. This resulted in sleep being disrupted due to noise.

Pros: Room and staff good

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great value, good size clean and comfortable room with powerful air con. Location perfect for old quarter and cathedral. We were walking so can’t speak for car parking. Staff very helpful and friendly. Right on Camino route. We would not hesitate to stay again.

Cons: nothing negative to say

Pros: Central and easy to access.

Cons: Breakfast can have more options but can’t complain

Pros: Location was ideal. Lovely big rooms

Cons: Bed a bit hard

Pros: Really good location. Lots of bars and restaurant close by. Parking is possible in the parking garage right in front and costs about 8€ per night. The staff was nice and helpful.

Cons: The hotel is a flat which was rearranged as a hotel. This means you can hear every single word which is spoken in the room next to you. As most of the rooms don’t have private bathrooms there is a constant noise at the hallways. A lot of young people who come home at 6 in the morning and use the bathroom make it impossible to sleep longer. The main door has to be fixed because it’s only possible to slam the door if you want to close it. We had a room with bathroom. It was ok and relatively clean. The drain made weird noises also when the bathroom next door was used. All in all this hotel is a hostel not a hotel. However, the price is more hotel-like. So if you’re young and wanna go out partying it’s okay, if not better stay away.

Pros: Check-in was a quick, easy and personable experience. Throughout our stay rooms were cleaned daily and fresh towels replenished. The hotel also have travel sized hairdryers if required. The breakfast is simple yet satisfying, set in a lovely common room looking out over the square. The location is absolutely fantastic - close to Canadio (the social square), in the heart of the city and a ten minute walk from the nearest beach.

Cons: There was nothing I disliked about my stay in Plaza Pombo.

Pros: good breakfast - good location

Cons: nothing to mention

Pros: Breakfast was just OK

Pros: Very comfortable room. Perfect location. No breackfast.

Pros: Great location right niece to Bus Station, REnfe Train Station, and restaurants/ bars. Coin laundry is two short blocks away. Room was small but nicely appointed and very clean.

Cons: A little noisy in the neighborhood at night but earplugs help. Stair lighting is hard to find- be careful coming up to the Hostal.

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Price, location, comfortable bed, clean, good shower, plenty hot water. Great for a couple of nights.

Cons: Air circulation can be an issue. I strongly recommend management put a fan in each room. It would solve a lot of complaints I see in the evals.

Pros: Good position, very nice receptionist, modern styled room with fridge(we were very happy about that) plus with complimentary bottles of water, a good effect made the cleanliness

Cons: No view from window, how the room was small the air was very warm and heavy, in some moments felt a bit claustrophobic

Pros: Superb location and a quiet area. The rooms are lovely and the owner is super friendly. A lovely place to stay.

Cons: The walk to the bathroom at night - it can be a bit dark and squeaky on the floorboards.

Pros: The ceiling fan the view of the market Central Market was quite the quite nice to watch during the day and that's about it. Although it sold the decor really shows that someone has attempted to make this place attractive and it actually is even though it's wicked old.

Cons: This place is in a very old building that was upgraded quite well however it still got wooden floors and lots of cracks and nooks and crannies and a little bit dirty but not bad. I stayed here 3 days and was happy with a place especially because a room came of the ceiling fan and it's hot humid nights it's just the thing you need. There is a cold water sink in the room and there is a small shower stall but it takes about 20 minutes to get the hot water from way down where it comes from but I'm pretty happy with the place I come here again. The neighborhood's not the greatest for example up within the same block as a sex shop and a few other little not so great things.

Pros: It was very clean and the location was great.

Pros: Very warm welcome from the host. Beautiful property in a great location.

Pros: The lady who runs it was really helpful

Cons: A bit’tired’ needs updating

Cons: see above

Pros: Charming hotel from the past

Cons: The building is quite old and some things needs modernisation. I'd rather not hear someone walking upstairs and flushing the toilet

Pros: excellent breakfast and a quiet location

Cons: slightly dated appearance

Pros: Good breakfast.

Cons: A bit far from town centre but on bus route and plenty of free parking.

Pros: Spacious room with terrace overlooking the gardens. You get a lovely view of the sea in the distance and morning sun. Very comfortable room. Excellent breakfast and very helpful staff on reception who explained bus routes etc.. once you get your bearings, the escalators make it very easy and quick to get into town and reach the bus/train stations. Excellent veggie café, Delicio, across the road. Would definitely recommend las Carolinas.

Pros: The staff are so pleasant and so helpful. We love the location of the hotel which is situated in a park making it very peaceful but it's not far to walk to the city centre.

Cons: I would have felt better if I could have spoken Spanish! I didn't need to as the staff could speak english but next time I hope to be able to say a few words in Spanish.

Pros: This hotel is 'traditional' in that it was created in a building that was a converted convent school (hence the name) in 2003. The decorative state needs a bit of attention. Good location for guests travelling by car who want walking access to the city centre. Good car parking. Friendly reception. Large bathroom all working. Hanging space a bit limited. We would use again.

Cons: External decorative state and the stiff windows.

Pros: Beautiful building and grounds. Exceptionally good staff

Cons: Everything was lovely

Pros: Location, friendly staff

Cons: Carpets in corridor (stains)

Pros: Easy access to Ferry Terminal. Good parking.

Cons: I was only there for 1 night.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: I was offered the chance by the card machine at check in to pay in Euros or GBP, I chose GBP, the clerk then called the local Police and took me from my room, even though I had paid my bill before I stayed. I was humiliated by the nasty women on the check in desk. I had to repay in euros at her demand whilst 4 police officers stood looking on.

Pros: Very clean and modern facilities

Cons: All ok

Pros: The hotel was easy to find and is a short distance to the ferry terminal. There are a number of bars and cafes a short walk away. A bus stop is outside the hotel carpark if you want to go into Santander and not drive.

Pros: Friendly staff and very helpful , would stay again

Cons: Car parking

Pros: It’s extremely close to the port, and if you’re on a motorcycle, there’s free parking directly opposite the entrance. The centre of town is only a 10 minute walk away.

Cons: There was nothing I didn’t like, it was more about what was missing. Like a lot of other hotels in Spain, there’s no proper bar, and the restaurant wasn’t opened. However, there’s loads of good food and beverages very close to the hotel.

Cons: The bed was very hard

Pros: Guys at front desk were nice, though only one spoke a bit of English.

Cons: Bed hard as a rock and pillows hard too. Breakfast pastries were good but the ham and cheese were disappointing-boiled ham and American cheese. Bathroom had stains on floor but the maids were pleasant. I had to go out to buy pillows and still slept badly. The room was quiet though. Room needed some paint-generally shabby.

Pros: Charming building very central and good breakfast

Cons: Had to park half a mile away and drag bags up hill Room was on third floor and was very basic

Pros: Not a lot

Cons: The bedrooms and facilities were a poor Travelodge equivalent No power points in room Having paid extra for an upgraded room I dread to think what the non upgraded rooms were like

Cons: Car parking. Very difficult. I got a parking fine overnight. Don’t understand why.

Pros: Great location for ferry. Comfortable room.

Cons: Pink decor and narrow room
