Inns in Spain

"No habíamos advertido que una de las tres personas que nos alojábamos tenía cierta dificultad con las escaleras, y nos cambiaron a una habitación del piso bajo sin ningún problema. Si bien se notaba que no estaba preparada y había olor a humedad, la habitación era grande u confortable."

"Lo mejor la atención del dueño. El hotel muy bonito, con decoración medieval, limpio y con todas las comodidades. Espero volver."

"Es una posada muy bonita y tranquila Los dueños son muy amables Para volver"

"Excellent place for a romantic weekend. The town of Ucieda is very lovely and it’s surroundings too "

"Comfortable and cosy room. Super clean and homely. Hospitable owner. Small and very friendly family business. Definitely recommended. Outstanding views of Cantabria green hills and Laredo Bay beach. "

"What a host, what a view, and what food !!! Miguel - the host, made us feel very well looked after. Provided wealth of information about the local area, local traditions, food and wines. According to Miguel, Rioja region makes the best wine in the world !!! I'm no connoisseur to dispute that (perhaps after I open one of the Marqués de Riscal Reserva 2012 bought from Rioja). The lovable dog 'Bernie' was so friendly, my son who is normally scared of dogs went on walks together. The hotel is right...

"Quirky converted building in a very rural area. Very clean. Hot water was an issue, as with most hotels in winter with the short days. Very friendly reception, even with the language barrier. I would say it was over-priced in comparison to what you get in the UK for the same price. But would still recommend, nothing really bad to say about the place. Served it’s purpose for us, bed and shower while touring."

"We were lucky enough to happen across this gem when searching for a quiet location close to Santander that would accommodate us and our two small dogs in a hurry. We were taken aback by the extent of kindness and curtesy extended to us by Ivan and warmed by a welcome that was genuine. The accommodation is tasteful and thoughtfully responds to the 150 year old fully renovated building, replete with all of its original timber beams. It is a pleasing blend of both modern and antique which doesn’t...

"The hotel is beautiful! On the river with the gurgle sound of the river to fall asleep to. Ana, who checked us in, was the most wonderful person you could ever imagine. So welcoming and kind. She also made the food for the breakfast banquet that is offered ! Trust me, you don’t want to miss that!"

"It is the best choice of those surraundings. GREAT ROOMS, very good breakfeast. Quiet and safe location. If you want to explore Santander is only 20 min away and 1 hour from Bilbao or Garabandal. In your own car perfect, from the main road might be a 10 minute walk. I will return to explore Cantabria the best part of Spain! "

"Totalmente recomendable, instalaciones conservadas , limpieza, un ambiente muy acogedor y sobre todo un trato personal excepcional!!! En otra ocasión repetiremos la experiencia."

"Santa Ponsa is gorgeous: the buildings, the rooms, the grounds are all stunning. The setting is perfect. I cannot stress this enough. It's a perfect place to unwind. There were some glitches throughout our weekend stay, however. These are small, but for the price paid, they should be ironed out: shower temperature fluctuated a lot between very cold and scalding. It wasn't enough to complain about, but it was an irritation. The spa pool was lovely, but the hammam never quite heated up and the...

"Accueil chaleureux et aide précieuse de la part du propriétaire (visite des alentours et autres). Excellent petit déjeuner aux saveurs de la région."

"Nice place to stay. Very clean, close to everything you need, quiet, and enjoyable. "

"Best place to rest and plenty of hiking trails to mountains or 12th century villages. This Campoo valley has world class unparalleled romanic churches. The most common sound is cow bells as they move around green pastures. Hidden gem. Almost afraid of too many people discovering it."

"No pudimos disfrutar de la chimenea en pleno mes de enero aunque lo solicitamos expresamente. Nos dijeron que no había muchos huéspedes y no la iban a encender. Vimos que la casa estaba llena. Tampoco nos enseñaron la zona de estar de la planta de abajo para descansar un poco después de estar todo el día fuera. Eran las siete y media de la tarde y ellos tenían previsto marcharse. Les pedimos que al menos nos indicaran dónde encender y apagar la luz para no estar encerrados en la habitación todo...

"Quite good rural hotel, with lots of history. Rooms ok for a few nights. Juan the night guy is very very helpful, speaks only Spanish. Sergio one of the waiters does everything he can to help you. Speaks English. 20 kms from Caminito del Rey. Good choices in restaurant, observe closed on Mondays, but they will recommend other restaurants in the area when they are not open."

"Excellent value for money. "
