I visited Santander for an International Conference (ICALT 2008) and I stayed at this hotel because some others were full. I really don´t know from were to start...the room was not clean, it smeled terrible, the carpet was filthy, it was noicy, no aircondition...and more..! Thank God I did not bring my wife with me..she would be furious that I would made her stay at this Hotel!!! Please DO NOT TRY IT.
In addition the Wi Fi din't work and the receiptionists had VERY HARD time to understand and speak any English!!

Myself and my girlfriend stayed at the Hotel for three nights and it was everything we hoped for. We arrived late into Santander late at night taking the bus from the airport (only 1.60euros very good) and the hotel was just round the corner. It was close to both the central bus station and the FEVE railway station. It is quite a way to the beaches but there are several buses and you are very near to the massive shopping district of Santander. Breakfast was good lots of litle cakes and pastries in plastic packets and good coffee, cereals, cheese, ham etc etc. The staff were friendly and they allowed us to stow our luggage there after we chekced out as our flight was not until late in the evening. Brilliant value for money would definetly stay again.

This Hotel, situated within 3 mins walking of the two railway stations, the main and local bus stations, and the Brittany Ferry terminal. Is a great place for people in transit or visiting Santander for a few days, I would not recomend it for an extended stay however. The rooms are well furnished, if a bit dated, the bathrooms etc. are very good with plenty of hot water, toiletries & towels.
The breakfast was, continental style buffet, and was adequate if a little uninspiring. The three mornings I sampled the fare showed no variety in the buffet. I had no further meals in the Hotel Dining room, however the 'cafeteria' attached to the Hotel served apetising snacks etc.
There are several other eating & drinking establishments in the area, those that I sampled proved excelent.

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights and we were glad it wasnt longer. On arrival there were builders upgrading on the same floor and the noise was awful. This went on till about 6pm. The room bore no ressemblance to the one advertised and although clean, was small, dark, hot and smelt of carpet freshner, covering stale air. The bedroom window opened onto a dark gap in the middle of the building about 4 foot square in which hung peoples washing and was full of flies. There was no air conditioning or extractor in the bathroom and the room was very warm and opressive.
We asked why the room was different from advertised as the rooms on the floor below seemed to have been upgraded but were told they were booked through agencies and they could not move us.
It was quite a walk into town and although very near to the bus depot , it was not the nicest of areas to stay in. The staff could not speak much english and were not very helpful. There was not much parking available and car parks charged about 15 - 20 euros per day.
