We were heading to and from Pau for a cycling event and wanted somewhere to stay away from Santander. We could not have found a better place. Despite my broken Spanish, the owner Rosa speaks good English which gave me comfort when reserving our rooms inadvance. The period property is a little tucked away in the quiet countryside but no...

La Casona is absolutely spectacular. I dare say that the pictures in their website don't really do it justice as it exceeds your expectations. Everything is flawless, from the stunning location, the rooms, food, service... down to all the little extras. Moreover it has the warm touch of a family business, so you feel just like if you were at... More

We decided to spend the last three nights of a month long tour of Northern Spain here and what a great decision it turned out to be. We now know why it has received so many excellent reviews on this site - all of which in our view are well deserved. The location is just ideal for exploring Santander, Bilbao... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and thought the hotel was excellent. The room was large with high ceillings and spotlessly clean. Right from our initial welcome, the owners and other staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. We ate at the hotel on both nights and would highly recommend doing so. The food was superbly cooked and... More

This was our first night in Spain after arriving in Santander and was just perfect. The hotel is full of character, comfort and charm. The owners are delightful and we had a delicious and very reasonably priced dinner. We would definitely return.

Our experience at the Casona was fantastic! We had a great time thanks to the attentions, dedication and care of the owners (Rosa and Chema) and employees. They were all very kind and helpful. Part of our family stayed for one night as well and Rosa made an effort to accommodate them in the best and most comfortable way, so... More

The boutique hotel is very clean and the decor is interesting and well thought out. Rosa has a good eye for design and detail and the food is very good. Breakfast is... More

We stayed in La Casona just for one night on our trip from Galicia to the mediterranean coast and enjoyed every bit of it. It is very conveniently located just a few kilometers away from A-8 highway half way between Santander and Bilbao and is very easy to find, so it is an ideal place to recharge if you travel... More

We stayed here on the last night of a Cantabria/ Basque country trip, hoping for a relaxing end to our trip before flying from Santander. It exceeded our expectations! It is an idyllic rural location, and has an old world charm, yet clean, modern facilities. The garden, and sheltered deck are perfect for reading a book and sipping a glass... More
