Parador de Santillana del Mar  

On the edge of Plaza Ramón Pelayo in the heart of Santillana del Mar — a car-free, cobblestoned medieval centre. Stroll to landmarks like Casa del Águila, Casa de la Plaza and the Homenaje al hombre de Altamira statue. Altamira Museum and Santillana Zoo are about 2 km away; Santa Justa beach is roughly 4 km from town and Comillas sits a little over 15 km down the Bay of Biscay coast.

A newly built manor that preserves traditional Cantabrian stone architecture and slots right into the old-town vibe. The hotel has 28 rooms—simple, comfortable layouts with private bathrooms, minibar, satellite/cable TV, safe and hairdryer. Expect calm, classic décor, a TV lounge and a library that keep the atmosphere quietly refined; an elevator makes upper floors accessible.

On-site restaurant and bar, sauna and a massage room for downtime, plus a breakfast room to start the day. There’s a tour desk to book local excursions and a 24-hour reception for easy arrivals. Paid parking and a covered garage are available for guests who drive.

Conference facilities and meeting space available, with WLAN Internet access and free Wi‑Fi across the property. 24-hour reception, currency exchange and safe-deposit boxes round out business-friendly services.

Continental buffet breakfast each morning; lunch and dinner served à la carte or as set menus. The on-site restaurant leans into local cuisine and Cantabrian flavours, and the bar is a relaxed spot for evening drinks.
