Top neighborhoods in Santander

This ancient hillside quarter of Santander offers a peek into authentic Cantabrian life away from tourist crowds. Wander the narrow cobblestone alleys to discover traditional architecture, distant bay views, and the charming Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Consolación. Family-run tavernas serve regional specialties like cocido montañés at prices below city center averages.

Hotel Citrea Santander

Hotel Citrea Santander

8/10 Good
"The room given was a weird set up. It had a bath tub next to the bed. The sink was o the other side of the bed. It had a bucked door to access the comode and the shower, but the shower had a 5 feet tall glass looking into the the room. So from the bed you can watch whoever was showering. Probably this was a honeymoon room. There are no closets or dresser to store clothing. Just a rack in top a small counter. The breakfast was all american (all cold cuts) not even scramble eggs. We ate at a cafeteria nearby. The bed was comfortable and the room had a mini-fridge. Overall it was ok, but not "wonderfull" as stated in the reviews."
