We have stayed here for a single night on two separate occasions when arriving off the ferry in the evening and when waiting to return. It's ideal as parking is easy and it's only a 5-10 min drive to the ferry port. Hotel staff are very welcoming and do speak English. The rooms are very modern and clean and there... More

The best thing about this hotel is the very helpful, friendly staff (although it does help if you speak a bit of Spanish.) The rooms were comfortable apart from the lack of air conditioning - the hotel's website says most rooms have it but the 2 rooms that my party had did not and it was a very warm week.... More

Finding Chateau La Roca was a bit tough even with sat nav, but thankfully I'd looked at the ariel view on their web site so knew how to get to it from the autovia junction. Room was great, simple, clean. It was also totally wheelchair accessible as Beatrice had said on the phone when booking. Nice smellies in the bathroom... More

Used this hotel as a stop over after disembarking from the ferry in Santander early evening. Road works in the town made following the directions awkward although if you follow signs for S20 and leave at junction 2 it is really easy to find. Ideally situated for leaving on the motorway network as you are outside the main town and... More

dont be put off by the price of this hotel, or by its exterior! inside for the money it doesnt get much better! its a bit out of town, but with parking that would fit the landrover in we didnt have much choice! for a beer and a wine try the adjoining cafe as well as tapas. the round pf... More

Nice little hotel about 4 miles out of santander, on a nice residential area, room we had was large clean with large shower and plenty of wardrobes etc and was a very good price compared with some of the city hotels. The staff were very helpful and some spoke good english,and pointed us in the right direction with things we... More

Although this is a functional hotel, in a building that lacks character, it has obviously been refurbished to a very good standard and is spotlessly clean. It's about 15 minutes drive from the ferry port, and fairly easy to find, though no thanks to the hotel's website which gives only the vaguest directions. It has lots of free parking, and... More

We visited Santander by car on April 2011 as the summer had set in early. This hotel turned out to be amazing although a little out of the city (about 10 minute drive) However, the place was absolutely amazing, not mentioning the proximity to some beautiful coves on the Bay of Biscay! Their business model must be something different as... More

I can reccomend this hotel. It offers a cheaper alternative to the very pricey hotels located in El Sardinero. It is located about 7km from El Sardinero but there is a very good bus service (the No. 2), the stop for which is about 5 minutes walk from the hotel. The rooms are adequate, clean and comfortable. Had breakfast a... More
