Incorrect information from Hotels.com
Hotels.com posted free parking but it was incorrect. The hotel charged us for parking and told us that they never offer free parking.

Quelle déception !
Nous séjournons dans les Paradores en famille régulièrement et sommes généralement enchantés des prestations. Ce Paradore en particulier mériterait un bon rafraichissement, un changement du mobilier désuet et des sanitaires au goût du jour. Ca ne valait pas les 525€ que nous avons payés pour 2 jours ! Le village cependant valait le détour.

We got upgraded to the Gil Blas parador adjacent to parador we booked because so few guests and latter was closed when we arrived. The building itself is a marvel and staff was lovely. Gil Blas in need of serious rehab however. The bar area, carpets and upholstery throughout were very worn and even all the lamp shades were worn. It would take some bucks but it could easily be done with taste consistent with historical period.

Hotel in an historic building in the old town.
The Parador hotel is situated in an historic building in the centre of the town, with on-site parking. The room was large and comfortable, but dark. Breakfast was good. Staying in January we were in the off season. The town of Santillana del Mar was almost shut, therefore necessitating eating in the hotel restaurant for dinner. The food quality was very poor.

Beautiful location - Parador needs to improve
Our main complaint is that the shower was terrible. After a long hot drive you expect to have a shower that works properly. Both the shower and the tap in the bathroom had very low pressure. Additionally, it either trickled out cold or as soon as you turned the mixer to hot it went scolding hot. Consequently it was dreadful.We were in the new part of the parador across from the older one (we weren't aware of this when we booked). We didn't enjoy the half board dinner - not very well cooked. Only the dessert was what we would expect from such a place. However the breakfast was excellent - well cooked and loads of choice, and the waitress a delight.

Buena opción
La opción Parador es muy buena solo que a veces por el hecho de su antigüedad te encuentras con pisos de los cuartos que hacen ruido y camas un poco duras, lo demás es 10 puntos

Escapade à Santillana Del Mar
Pour une pause détente et visiter village de Santillana del Mar et autres, l'endroit est bien situé.
J'ai mentionné dans un autre questionnaire que la douche est très difficile à régler ou trop chaud ou trop froid Dans l'ensemble le séjour s'est bien passé

Close to Santander, worth the trip
Must follow signs to the paradores very carefully since the town is car free.
Better than 3 stars, specially after upgrading, + € 30, well spend for a lovely deck making the room so much more roomy and enjoyable. Great way to rest with a glass of bubbly before diner.
Location could not be any better right in the center of such an old town and yet convenient to drive to other places like Santander, 30 mins. away.
Very clean and well man twin property.
Confortable all around.
Helpful staff.
