Top neighborhoods in Santander
Santander City Centre
Santander City Centre blends historic charm with coastal beauty. Wander through Belle Époque streets leading to the magnificent Gothic cathedral or explore Palacio de la Magdalena with its sweeping bay views. The Jardines de Pereda and waterfront promenades offer peaceful spots to watch boats glide across sapphire waters. Local markets buzz with energy while monuments tell stories of maritime heritage. Fresh seafood dominates local menus, from anchovies to squid dishes served in both traditional tabernas and modern restaurants. Boutique hotels in converted palaces sit alongside business-friendly accommodations. Getting around is a breeze with excellent walkability and frequent bus service connecting to beaches and train stations.
El Sardinero
El Sardinero's golden beaches stretch along Santander's stunning Bay of Biscay coastline, creating a postcard-perfect seaside escape. The elegant Belle Époque architecture and manicured Piquío Gardens add a touch of refinement to your beach days. When you're not swimming or sunbathing, explore the Magdalena Peninsula's walking trails or the grand Casino. Seafood restaurants with bay views dominate the dining scene, serving fresh catches in sophisticated settings. Choose from luxury hotels with spa amenities or upscale apartments, most offering spectacular ocean vistas. City buses connect easily to downtown Santander, though the flat promenade makes walking a pleasure along this stylish Spanish resort area.
Puertochico
Puertochico offers a taste of maritime elegance with its beautiful marina dotted with luxury yachts and traditional fishing boats. The tree-lined Paseo de Pereda invites you to stroll past Belle Époque buildings while soaking in stunning Santander Bay views. History buffs will appreciate the neighborhood's nautical heritage, visible in every corner of this refined waterfront district. Upscale seafood restaurants and pintxos bars line the promenade, serving fresh Cantabrian catches with harbor views. Boutique hotels and luxury apartments provide stylish accommodation options just steps from the water. The compact, walkable layout makes exploring this sophisticated slice of Santander a breeze.
La Gándara
Santander's La Gándara neighborhood is known for its beaches and waterfront, and entices visitors with attractions including Plaza de Canadio and Centro Botín.
Cabildo de Arriba
Cabildo de Arriba invites you to step back in time through its medieval streets and weathered stone facades. This ancient hillside quarter of Santander offers a peek into authentic Cantabrian life away from tourist crowds. Wander the narrow cobblestone alleys to discover traditional architecture, distant bay views, and the charming Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Consolación. Family-run tavernas serve regional specialties like cocido montañés at prices below city center averages. The neighborhood's steep terrain means challenging walks but rewards you with peaceful exploration of a genuine Spanish residential area. Central Santander's attractions are just a 15-20 minute downhill stroll away.

Hotel Chiqui
"The room was great. The pool requires reservations for the lounge chairs. And the hotel restaurant closed in the middle of the day- leaving us scrambling for a meal when we.arrived. We ended up getting groceries."
Hotel Art Santander
"The room I had was magnificent, with a fabulous view over the bay, and perfectly clean. Breakfast was good, with a very diverse choice including eggs, sausages, charcuterie, cheese, pastries, fruit etc. Staff were helpful, with recommendations for good viewing locations for the total eclipse. Be sure to use the stairs to see the varied art and decor of each landing and floor. The whole hotel was perfectly clean and tidy, but needs more thorough attention to minor ongoing repairs; small things like a set of plug sockets (and hence one bedside light) not working, a dubious join in the flex to a lamp, a shower-head holder which would not stay in position, a misted glazing unit, and the electronic safe lock not working (so I was entrusted with a key instead)."
Gran Hotel Sardinero
"Location, food , facilities"
Dorma Coliseum
"Soap and shampoo dispensers available but no skin lotion nor toothpaste. No facial tissues either. Bottled Water for sale in mini fridge. Very helpful front desk who helped me booked the Alsa bus to my next destination. Hotel is located within a 10 minute walk to the central bus station and the same distance to Centro Botin and the waterfront. Within walking distance to restaurant and bars. Room is large."
Hotel Bahia
"Great location for museums, art galleries and the ferry. Breakfast was good but no baked beans or mushrooms. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean but there was a screw loose on the toilet seat and the bathroom door was warped. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it."
Ibis Styles Santander
"The hotel was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was great and the restaurant gave a few options but all very reasonable and very tasty. The beds are very comfortable, even the sofa bed was comfy. The staff were all very helpful polite and made the stay a pleasant experience. Would definitely stay here again."
Estudios Aranzazu
"The accommodation was clean and comfortable with a very welcome ceiling fan cooling the temperature. We were arriving late (then my flight was delayed further) and were asked to check in online before 11.00pm but this was complicated and wouldn't work for me. But all was well and there was someone on duty at reception to check us in. Helpful and friendly reception staff. Good location - easy walk into town/waterfront and plenty of buses nearby. Only negative was very limited cooking equipment and absence of cloths for wiping/cleaning. A kettle, cups/mugs and wiping cloths would have helped."
Hotel Santemar
"Good stay at this quite large hotel. Room was beautiful and clean. Helpful staff. "
Gran Hotel Victoria
"Breakfast buffet was amazing, but I wish wr could have used the outside patio"
