Hotel Bahía

It is the fourth time I have stayed here and I confirm my opinion: top marks especially for the competent, kind and always available staff, in a natural and discreet way. The room is large and comfortable with an excellent bathroom, equipped with a spacious shower. Appreciate the internal connection with the cafeteria (Bahia Restaurant) to enjoy an excellent coffee, and more!

The hotel room was very spacious - there was plenty of room for 2 adults with 2 large suitcases and 2 small cases. The bed was really comfortable. The location of the hotel was perfect for us for one night - walking distance to the Post Office and a supermarket.

We had stayed before when catching a ferry and couldn’t believe how good value this classy hotel was for the location a stone’s throw from the terminal. It still is with nicely remodelled common areas. If you don’t pay for a sea view and are high enough you will have a view of the charming cathedral. There is a nice park and the promenade opposite. Shops and restaurants just behind. 2 doors away is a branch of the 100 montaditos budget bar chain which was a godsend for us in killing time before staggering over the road to a seriously delayed ferry.

Large hotel with spacious feel, huge comfortable room, big breakfast room with good selection including eggs and bacon, front line with great views of the bay and one street back into the old town for tapas, perfect location for a stay before or after the ferry as five minutes from the terminal, roomy underground car park accessed by easy to use lift down and back up. The hotel has two helpful signs to direct you in, but note the second is directing you to the next right which is a shared vehicle/pedestrian zone where the hotel is at the end, not the road where the sign is located which will take you back out to the main road though it is simple to circle back if you go wrong (as I did!).

Hotel is in a great location right beside the Centro Botin & Santander Cathedral with lovely views from the bedroom. There are lots of lovely restaurants around the area. The beaches are about 2km walk/cycle. We booked a suite to accommodate our family of 4. The suite was very spacious, comfortable & good value. Breakfast was included & had several choices. The staff were friendly & helpful. We also booked the parking for €16 per day which was very handy. There was a festival on outside the hotel the weekend we stayed so there was noise up to about midnight but we didn’t mind as we enjoyed the festival. Overall a good central hotel to stay and good value.
