I didn’t take anything from the bar this visit due to time restraints, but in other occasions the bar and bar service was excellent. The room had an amazing view of Puertochico and Peña Carbaga across the bay. This is my third visit here and I most definitely will visit here again.

I’ve stayed in other Vincci hotels and this was just as good as the others. Love the decor of the rooms and hotel. Hotel staff were nice and helpful. Seaview rooms are worth it. Perfectly located for amazing food, scenery. We only spent a night here but will definitely stay here when we return.

This was not my usual Santander hotel, but it was a pleasant surprise. The room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was a good size. And, although the hotel does not boast a restaurant, there is a bar with a good menu as well as breakfast. The staff were nice and it was a good, overall experience.

Stayed in the hotel for two days mid-September during family trip to north of Spain. Hotel is located within a few minutes from old town still close to very good restaurants. We spend a few hours with a drink in the hand just watching the waterfront view from our window! Parking is external but is very convenient and has an elevator directly into the hotel - better than some hotel parking I've seen. Very attentive stuff, we got a welcome gift that we appreciated very much! Room cleaning was done really well and thorough. Overall - exceptional experience and will not hesitate to book Vincci Puertochico hotel if I end up in Santander one more time!

Why I would not stay here again

I am not sure where this hotel got 4 stars it really is a 3 star at the most reminded me of my working days and using Holiday inn's around the country Room was quite small and two very uncomfortable chairs to sit on, the breakfast was ok we did give it a miss on a couple of mornings, frankfurters and congealed egg was not nice to see, coffee was no better The staff were nice so give them credit there.
