"Primero de todo: La habitación que se oferta en Hoteles.com, la doble premium en concreto, NO se corresponde con la habitación que te entregan. Y no es ligeramente distinta. Es que no tiene nada que ver. De hecho, no habríamos reservado nunca jamás algo así. El internet que se oferta es de 250 megas garantizados. En realidad no llega a 60, y es imposible trabajar. Algo que también nos ha afectado de manera negativa e inesperada. Se anuncia calefacción/aire acondicionado. Esto es también...

Top El Sardinero Beach Hotel Reviews

Suite Home Pinares

10/10 Excellent

"Great location"

Suite Home Sardinero

8/10 Good

"Parking was a little bit of an issue. Only doing one night so workable."

Hotel Boutique Las Brisas

8/10 Good

"The homely design is very attractive and makes you feel connected. Unfortunately we had a room on the second floor and there was no elevator. When we arrived we were helped upstairs, but when leaving no personel was present. The design of the room was charming but the space crampy, feeling crowded, small, and restricted. The queensize bed stood with one side against the wall and for the person sleeping at that side it was quite an effort to get out quickly. Also the bathroom was crampy. The part of town it was located in reminded us of the Cote d'Azur in France, the beach close by. Transfer to the city center was done with TUS (transporte Municipal de Santander)."

Le Petit Boutique Hotel - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Really lovely little hotel, in a great location. Very clean, comfortable rooms, delightful and helpful staff, and good breakfast. Perfect, and couldn't fault it"
