Hotel Cuevas - Adults Only, hotel in Santillana del Mar

Featuring a seasonal outdoor pool with a furnished terrace, Hotel Cuevas is located on a rustic building with modern décor and that is nestled in the picturesque village of Santillana del Mar.

I cannot rate the hotel staff - all of them - highly enough they were all exceptional. Lovely boutique hotel with pool and well appointed restaurant. This is a small town and parking was it a premium so the underground car park - €12 a day was worth it.

    This is a beautiful little medieval town with cobbled streets and impressive ancient buildings. A central feature is the large cathedral of Colegiata of St. Juliana, where you can visit the cloisters or attend Catholic mass. It stands in a square which is bordered by an art museum (Jesus Otero). A few cobbled streets run off the square, with plenty of restaurants and hotels to choose from. They are proud of their cheese and other local produce, so there are several shops dedicated to this. The Conventa Clarisas (convent of the poor Clares) is also very charming and is famous for its pastries for sale. We stayed in the beautiful Hotel Casa del Marques, whose staff were very friendly and welcoming, in a well-appointed and spacious room with large comfortable bed, seating areas and ensuite, all in keeping with the charming classic style of the hotel. We also spent a night at the Hotel los Infantes, which is impressively grand. It is easy to access this small town on foot, but it is possible to drive through the cobbled streets and there is a public car park which is free. The town is not actually on the coast, but is 10 minutes' drive from pretty local beaches.

    This is a must-see, very beautiful town.

    This is a must-see, very beautiful town. It is close to the Altamira Caves, although we decided not to visit them. We ate in a little restaurant at the square and the food was incredible and very cheap. We got to Santillana del Mar by car and it was easy to find, parking is available and overnight parking was free.

    Santillana del Mar is a well preserved historic town in beautiful setting. Lovely to walk the cobbled streets and soak in the ambiance of the old town. The Catholic Church was really interesting as was local museum- downside was no English signage in either. Barely 2km from town is the astounding Cave of Altamira and museum. They have protected these prehistoric caves by building a museum containing an accurate replica of the caves and artwork. That alongside a fascinating exhibition of the era concerned made for a compelling visit. In high season, best to get there early as there are limited numbers going through the museum. Lovely walking through area and viewing (from distance) original cave entrance. Beautifully maintained and very helpful staff. Information in Spanish & English. Multitude of cafe/restaurants in old town with great food

    This place is unique, as are each of the houses / places to stay - so much character! The church of Santa Juliana is a gem, and the 12th century cloister is amazing. The village is a lovely blend of culture and country - incredible architecture and free-range chickens / horses. Altogether delightful!

    Santillana del Mar is a beautiful village with some lovely buildings but is leaning towards being overly touristy and much of what was on sale was repetitive and not great quality. However, it has a superb ceramics shop - if you are interested in lovely pieces then do visit ARPA.Also a lovely little leather goods sho[ and a couple of decent jewellers .

    Our room was lovely and clean. Breakfast was very good at additional price. The staff is pleasant. You can walk to medieval town. It is truly lovely when all the buses leave.....magical!!!!!!! This hotel has an outdoor patio with chairs and tables where we would sit and drink wine at night. The room has no air condition......I would NOT stay there in July or Aug!!!!!! We slept with windows open on 2 floor....nice breeze. I would recommend this hotel but NOT in summer!!!!!!

    Set in a beautiful and characterful period building, the hotel retains many original architectural features whilst incorporating all requisite modern facilities. It is tastefully decorated with the facsimile Leonardos and other Renaissace masters an amusing addition. The staff were particularly excellent, most helpful, attentive and clearly enjoying their work. This was an exceptional place to stay which we cannot recommend highly enough.

    Our second stay in Sep 2023. A different room this time - outside the main building. Not as good as our previous room but to be expected as a little older I suspect. Great location for Santander and the beautiful town of Santillana del Mar. Great hospitality, lovely breakfasts, tranquil location in quiet countryside location off the beaten track. Superb gardens. Very Dog friendly which is a bonus for us.
