The hotel entrance is round the corner from the cafe where we went in, but the waiter quickly pointed us in the right direction. Staff were great and very helpful. Breakfast in the adjoining cafe was excellent with delicious tortillas. We also used the cafe fir a snack the evening before and again the tortilla we chose was excellent. Good value and in a convenient location.

Great small hotel with motorcycle bays at the door
Great small hotel. Right in the centre of Santander. Lots of options around for eating and drinking.
Motorcycle parking bays at the door, so great for bikers.

What’s the difference between a 2 star or a 3 star hotel? For us this was 3 star. Clean and comfortable, nice bathroom. The hotel is connected to a very popular restaurant . The breakfast was served in the restaurant and there were a mix of hotel guests and locals.
The location was in the pedestrian area.
We thought this stay was good and good value for money.

Lovely stay in Hotel Picos de Europa. I arrived very early, hoping to leave my luggage and return later to check in. Instead, the reception checked for available rooms and I checked in right then. Room was comfortable with a complementary bottle of water. Good location for bus and train stations

This is a simple and charming hotel in a great neighbourhood, close but not in the centre of the city, very walkable and safe. My room was extremely clean, the bed was comfortable and the room had everything I needed. The included breakfast was in the restaurant that is part of the hotel and it was great, with fresh squeezed orange juice, excellent coffee and I chose the Spanish tortilla every morning and it was one of the best tortillas I’ve had in Spain, in a very warm and friendly restaurant full of locals coming in for their breakfast. This is a great hotel if you’re not looking for a more expensive corporate style hotel and I highly recommend it.
