Fantastic and welcoming hotel, that feels "classic" and that I think looks much better in reality than in the photos. The area is quiet and the hotel is only a few hundred meters from each of the main beaches and within 20-25 minutes or so walking distance to the city centre.
Very good room, including the beds and air conditioning. I was only missing other / lower pillows to choose from.
The hotel staff was great (10/10, i.e. perfect!) and make it easy for the guests to relax.
There is no real need to pay for parking, as there is plenty in the streets, at least when people leave the beaches in the afternoon.
Just one remark: Be aware if you book a junior suite that not all of them have a true "beach view", as stated / sold on Hotels.com.

The hotel had a lovely position with nice open communal spaces. The restaurant was pretty average in terms of quality and choice of food. Our room was lovely and spacious. It was well equipped with great air conditioning which was a blessing. My only complaint was that my husband was told by the receptionist when he arrived that us of the garage was €20. On settling the bill, the new receptionist charged us €28 and when questioned insisted that the other lady couldn’t possibly have told my husband that it was €20. Impossible he said. Basically calling my husband a liar! €28 to store a motorcycle overnight is definitely on the steep side in anybody’s book.

Hotel needs to improve.

The Gran Victoria hotel in Santander has a four-star rating. It has an excellent location. The service from its staff is incredible.
However, it does not meet the four-star standard. The room was cramped, outdated, and the bathroom was of very low quality.
The food is very limited; they serve the pork raw. The breakfast has very few options.
The hotel requires remodeling and a review of the food.

Very retro style hotel with paper thin wall. You heard very shower and toilet activity. Even though by the beach no beach towel , basic rooms even with 'terrace' no coffee or tea facilities either. Staff okay ish but not smiley people

Good hotel in an excellent position. Staff are extremely pleasant and obliging and the food is very good. Our room was clean and quite spacious but I felt that the bathroom and balcony were beginning to look a little tired, something we didn't experience on our stay last year.

Very good location
