Short Break. Santander Abba Hotel

Our stay was for 3 nights. Four adults. All staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is very convenient with respect to the ferry (circa 80 meters), the town centre and public transport. Breakfast was very good. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

Lovely hotel will stay again.

Loved this hotel! Santander is a beautiful city. Was very busy while we were there as festival at the weekend. Loved this hotel in great location just outside the old town and right next to the bus station where airport bus drops off. Our room was on 3rd floor and had big windows and lottle balcony but with windows closed no noise from traffic or street Room was very spacious ans modern with free bottled water and coffee machine as well as kettle and fridge.
