"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel - and I let the reception staff know how much we liked it on checking out. The beds were comfortable, the shower was efficient and it was good to have two chairs in the room to relax in. I particularly liked the breakfast buffet. No hot dishes but that was fine with me. Nice breads, cereals, cold meats and fruit. I don't understand, though, why hotels in Spain (of all places!) don't have grapes in the buffet. Nicely located too away from the biz but...

"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...

"This is a fantastic little B&B. The lady running the place was ever so friendly, helpful and patient with our efforts to communicate in Spanish. Each room has its own private entrance, so you feel like you have your privacy. Although there's no air conditioning, you can manage the summer temperatures somewhat by keeping the shutters down and the windows cracked open. The "lavender room" we stayed in had heart-shaped rugs and pillows, and even a heart-shaped bath. It was great! Breakfast...

Top Magdalena Beach Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bahia

8/10 Good

"Location good"

Hotel Chiqui

8/10 Good

"Great hotel at the end of Sardinero beach. close to the path that leads round to the cove beaches next to the golf course. closest bus routes are the 1, 2, and 4 lines from the town centre... unfortunately no direct bus from the airport so you need to change at the bus station. I had a sea view balcony room which was superb, with a big balcony and huge bed. even saw a sea rescue drill... see images. air con is efficient and quiet and shower is a huge walk in rain shower with plenty of hot water. black out curtains are good as the sun rises in front of the hotel which is east facing. the room I had included a fridge and a separate hallway which is unusual for a hotel.. but great for keeping out the noise. the TV is not smart so I couldn't access my YouTube channel.. they should fix this as most people have media channels accounts nowadays. breakfast is OK but no egg bar and only scrambled eggs available which after two days I was sick of. the hotel has a fancy bar and restaurant but I eat out... there is a small Italian restaurant nearby and two good supermarkets for convenience. I didn't use the infinity pool but it looked decent, albeit small. I paid a lot for the deluxe room (€200 a night!), so I can't say it was excellent value for money due to the high price paid. but overall, I enjoyed the accommodation and special mention to the receptionist Jeimy who was super nice."

Eurostars Hotel Real

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful hotel in a great location. Staff is supper attentive, and Christina went above and beyond being attentive to our needs, constantly checking on us to see if we need anything else- thank you, Christina, you made our stay even better that it was already."

Gran Hotel Sardinero

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was beautiful overlooking the ocean. When we registered the receptionist was a bit short with us . We checked in earlier than expected instead of the usual 3:00 pm. The room they provided us on the 3 rd floor overlooking ocean had a odd odor. We addressed this issue with reception and maintenance provided a service. The odor was fowl and we addressed this matter with reception and the provided us with an upgraded room . We had a wonderful time and the staff were very nice and helpful."

NH Ciudad de Santander

"Not goof"

Suite Home Pinares

10/10 Excellent

"10/10 experience, employees were very accommodating and kind."

La casa del artista Sardinero

10/10 Excellent

"La casa del artista Sardinero is a lovely apartment in the beautiful Sardinero area of Santander, a short walk from the city’s wonderful beaches, cafes, restaurants and shops. The city centre of Santander and everything it offers can be reached easily on foot via the fascinating Tetuán tunnel.The host, Renata, is very responsive and helpful. The check in/out process is smooth. Highly recommended."

Hotel Boutique Las Brisas

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Lovely character. Easy check-in and checkout. Lots of free on street parking. Would stay here again."

Hotel Hoyuela

10/10 Excellent

"Some reviewe have mentioned this place feels dated - but i found it wonderful and quite the bargain. Huge room, very modern bathroom, mattress fine, clean as can be. Very helpful and friendly staff - especially Santiago at front desk. The carpets are worn, but other than that it is a gem. You would pay 3x the price to get such a spacious bathroom and room in a more modern hotel. Outstanding location"
