    Pros +

    • Very helpful staff who arranged access long after reception closed when my flight into Santander was delayed by several hours. . Room was great.
    • Ok breakfast. Easy parking.
    • Breakfast was the star of the this property, a bit pricey but had everything you can think of in a buffet style breakfast. Rooms were good and spacious and building was very intriguing since it was an old palace.

    Cons -

    • Having to leave early next morning, so I only saw the hotel in the dark and couldn't take advantage of the restaurant.
    • Uncomfortable pillow and mattress. No dinner option during our stay.
    • It was a bit far from the touristy areas, around 20 min drive.

    A beautiful, clean and modern hotel.

    8Lou A.Posted on: 5-16-2025

    The converted building was absolutely stunning. The rooms were very comfortable. The beds were also very comfortable.

    The breakfast buffet was a total disappointment! The orange juice wasn’t fresh. The coffee was cold and it was very expensive twice what it should’ve been! Take a big pass on the breakfast buffet!

    10RonPosted on: 5-15-2025

    Palacio de Arce is extremely nice hotel. Rooms are spacious, clean, comfortable and recently updated. Absolutely our favorite hotel on our trip.

    Only improvement needed is stronger WiFi signal in the rooms.

    9SimonPosted on: 5-2-2025

    Palacio de Arce is the ideal hotel to spend the night before taking the car ferry from Santander. 15 minutes drive from the Brittany Ferry Terminal at Santander.Comfortable rooms. Good food. Great staff.

    10DwightPosted on: 4-28-2025

    I was walking the Camino del Norte and initially thought that it would be too far from route, but was close to the start of my next stage and worked perfectly. The hotel itself is stunning and the restaurant was fabulous. Staff, from reception to the restaurant were all very nice, professional and welcoming.

    No complaints.

    8MichaelPosted on: 4-25-2025

    Beautiful building, location ideal for ferry port, picturesque setting. Staff were friendly , helpful and spoke English. Breakfast was good.

    In the bathroom there was a smell of sewage but it did clear. Pillows were very hard

    10MichelePosted on: 4-19-2025

    Very helpful staff, great food, lovely warm room, very clean and a beautiful building

    9GuyPosted on: 4-15-2025

    character of the ld palace,restaurant and food plus good service from friendly staff.

    THe room could benefit from coffee facilities, kettle or machine etc.

    9RonPosted on: 4-14-2025

    Very friendly staff and a very nice hotel in a rural setting but very close to my final destination. Secure and safe parking for a fully loaded vehicle. Very fine restaurant on site.

    10DonalPosted on: 3-26-2025

    What a wonderful find. The hotel is perfectly situated for the Santander ferry and has the added bonus of a superb restaurant. The staff were so friendly and the service in the restaurant was excellent.

    Nothing to dislike

    8AlisonPosted on: 3-19-2025

    Very comfortable room, and excellent breakfast, excellent food in restaurant for evening meal. Convenient for ferry in the morning.

    Bar area is limited, had to sit at a restaurant table for drinks.

    10BrendanPosted on: 3-13-2025

    An interesting building in a very nice location

    A few hairpin bends to negotiate but there are ok if handled with care

    9KeithPosted on: 3-10-2025

    Lovely, helpful and efficient staff and a good location if you are catching the ferry from Santander. Bar and Restaurant on site. Reasonably priced and with free car parking

    9FionaPosted on: 2-19-2025

    Beautifully restored building with pretty outside terraces and attractive interior and responsive staff

    It was all very comfortable. Unfortunately we stayed on a Monday night when their kitchen was closed. However we had drinks and snacks on the terrace.

    9PaulPosted on: 2-17-2025

    Lovely place with free parking on site. Very convenient for Santander and the ferry.

    10VictoriaPosted on: 2-13-2025

    The restaurant’s service and food were exceptional. The parking was perfect for our fully-packed car (in private courtyard)

    10NickPosted on: 1-28-2025

    Fantastic converted palace in excellent location.Excellent breakfast buffett

    1 A kettle for making tea in the room would have helped a lot. 2 Restraunt very good, very artistic, but meals are a bit light for hungry travellers...order extra chips and bread!
