Ok for a brief visit.

A one night stop en route to San Sebastian. The hotel was quiet, staff were helpful and friendly, however we weren't able to use the bar due to a private function, and the restaurant was closed, resulting in us going out in the pouring rain. A coffee machine in the room, however no coffee available. Breakfast was good, however we felt it was a rip off paying for parking for a hotel that was not in the centre.

How to have a good break!

As with our previous stay, we found the experience gave us full satisfaction. All the staff were friendly and helpful, and the facilities very good. If we ever come back to Santander we would definitely stay at Las Carolinas

We arrived 20 minutes after check in time at 23.20hrs. This was no fault of our own as our flight was delayed from London. We phoned the hotel from Santander to explain that we were running late.On arrival we were greeted by an obviously annoyed receptionist and made us feel unwelcome. Other than this the one night stay was good-nice old house and good breakfast.

Quiet hotel in Santander

This was an ok hotel in Santander. Old villa, nice garden, good breakfast, big rooms and bathrooms, in a quiet area of town so you don't hear anything. The hotel was a bit hard to find since it wasn't where google maps said it was, but the reception desk lady was able to guide me to it well when I called. The hotel is a 10 min walk from town center. I would say for the price one could find better hotels in Santander, but other hotels I've stayed at there before weren't that impressive either, so maybe the price is ok after all.

Not Reccomended

Hotel does not have air conditioning and weather was very hot. In order to get some cooling at night we left a bathroom window open and were attacked by mosquito's. Spent the next few days scratching and being absolutely miserable. I would have a hard time recommending this hotel.Very poor selection of places to eat within walking distance was also a problem. Free parking and internet access were only good points.

Loveley old hotel with modern updates.

Once we found it, by asking a burger van owner!, as the sat nav didn't recognise it, we had a lovely stay overnight. The English speaking young receptionist booked us in and served us a couple of drinks in the bar.
