Top Mercado del Este Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bahia

8/10 Good

"Room was a good size and great view of the Botin Centre, comfortable, with everytning we needed. Highlight was the breakfast, great choice, ham and tortilla being my personal favourites. Centrally located, close to most amenities. Palace at Magdelena a good walk but easily reached by bus if you prefer. Our favourite hotel in Santander"

NH Ciudad de Santander

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well located, within walking distance of the historic old town. The breakfast was good, and the front desk staff were very friendly and welcoming. Overall, a pleasant stay!"

Hotel Chiqui

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location & amazing staff"

Soho Boutique Palacio de Pombo

10/10 Excellent

"Really clean, big room and bathroom! Only thing was as the shower is "open plan" it soaked the whole of the bathroom floor making it pretty slippery. Would definitely come back next time we're in Santander."

Hotel Picos de Europa

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived at 1pm and were able to check into our room. Very clean, powerful shower and small bottles of complimentary water and toiletries replenished each day. Great location for walking around the city. Hotel guests receive 10% discount off menu del dia, served 1pm-4pm - choice of 3 starters, mains and desserts and includes bread and half a bottle of wine each for €18. The Rioja wine is very full bodied. Highly recommended for authentic home cooked Spanish food. Would highly recommend this hotel."

PLAZA SANTANDER

8/10 Good

"Very quiet and clean. Just a short walk to the stations and shops. You can walk to and from the ferry terminal no problem. No restaurant but free coffee and tea. Will stay there again!"

Hotel Citrea Santander

10/10 Excellent

"Todo muy bueno"

Estudios Aranzazu

10/10 Excellent

"All wonderful for the price. The staff were so friendly. Checkin was great and loved that the key was on your phone. The normal beds had a nice firm mattress, the window had great blinds that kept light out. Lots of space in wardrobes. Shower pressure was great (shower curtain not so great at keeping water out the bathroom). Towels provide along with small toiletries such as mini soap blocks and single use bodywash and shapoo in one, Had a TV and mini kitchenette. Good lighting in the room.with bedside tables and lights. Lots of charge points too. We were in the 5th floor with 1 quick lifts availble. Area was great, a coffee and bakery shop less than a minute away, along with two bars that were very cheap. Its around 30 minutes to the harbour and 15 minutes to closest set of resturants. The area is pretty flat with no major hills. The only niggle which we didn't raise with the hotel was that the additional bed in our triple room was very loud when ever you moved."

Hostal La Mexicana

8/10 Good

"Fantastic location for exploring the city. The room was clean and comfortable for the price and the staff all super helpful. Will use again when in Santander."
