Our ferry was postponed due to weather so we had an unexpected night in Santander. What a silver lining this turned out to be! Hotel Chiqui’s location is spot on, improved only by the excellent service we received from the very helpful staff - a huge shout out to Jeimy and Cristina in particular who were both lovely. All of the hotel’s rooms face the sea - we had booked a basic room, but were upgraded to one with a balcony. The rooms were clean and well-appointed, everything you need for a good stay. The breakfast, at 15€, was amazing. There was plenty of choice and it was good quality. I’d absolutely recommend this hotel and we would definitely stay there again next time we’re in Santander.

We arrived and the WC was literally dirty, they had to come and clean it. No soundproof between rooms, we could listen next door cell phone volume vibrating every 20min throughout the entire night. We payed for ocean view and we got top roof view and a glance of the beach. Do not waist your money in this hotel.

Hotel lovely, staff friendly, actual room small. You get an email about a one hour booking for the pool but that’s just to guarantee a sunbed, you can go for longer and take a chance a sunbed is free or just use the pool itself. There always seemed to be sunbeds free so it wasn’t a problem.
