Las Carolinas is a hospitality school where young hoteliers and chefs come to train. It is a restored 19th-century mansion with 16404 ft² of gardens, and it offers free Wi-Fi throughout.

Breakfast was good, the place and gardens are beautiful and is still close to many places in the city by car. The room was comfortable and the bad room as well.

    Whilst Santander is a bit too touristy for me, the accommodation is excellent. It's a ten-minute walk from the bus and train stations. Plus it's situated between the old town and the area where the locals shop, eat and drink.

    It was a surprise that it's actually not just a hotel but a room in the private home of the hosts. But if you are aware of that beforehand it's actually a great and cheap place to spend the night. The hosts are very welcoming and generous. I could use everything in the kitchen and they put some fruit and water for me in the room. It's a little bit out of the city center, but there are lots of shops and café's nearby.

    Very welcoming staff gave us a glass of cava, carried bags to the room, and ensured we were familiar with all the facilities. We liked the complimentary breakfast provided in the room, featuring local Cantabrian specialities. The advice they gave us about where to eat was excellent - we found ourselves in places frequented by locals, with good food and fair prices. They make every effort to ensure you have a good stay. Well done - I'd stay there again.

    Great host went above and beyond to help us and made recommendations for the city (sights, restaurants etc), the rooms are virtually brand new so in excellent condition and very clean. Good facilities - powerful shower, Dolce Gusto coffee machine, fridge etc. 5 mins walk from main bus station, 5 mins walk to main bar/restaurant area. Really spot on.

    The room was incredible for the price I paid (34 euro for a double room!) it had great views from the room, the bed was large and comfortable and the bathroom was spotless with a powerful shower. The hotel was perfectly located close to some great 'locals' bars. For the price I paid it exceeded my expectations.
