ibis Styles Santander

What guests think

Across many reviews, ibis Styles Santander is praised for friendly, efficient staff, very clean modern rooms, and good value, with convenient transport links by train and easy access to the ferry port and airport.

Location draws mixed feedback: it sits in an industrial area outside the centre, walkable for some but better reached by public transport or car. Rooms are comfortable and modern but vary in size, with some see through shower layouts and occasional noise near the road or railway. Breakfast and the 24 hour café are frequently praised, though a few mention high prices or limited restaurant service at busy times. Overall, expect a clean, good value base suited to stopovers and city visits.

Free outdoor and underground parking is a plus but spaces can be limited and the entrance can be tricky the first time. A small gym and a 24 hour café are appreciated additions.

This is a great place to stay, I am not used to staying in 3 star properties, normally 4 or 5 star. Staff are fantastic and friendly. The 24 hr cafe next to reception is a God send. Room is spotless, basic, and the beds are extemely comfortable. Tv and wifi are perfect. Buffet breakfast is good. The prices are exceptionally good for the food and drinks. I was pleasantly surprised. Literally 5.minutes in a taxi to the airport and 4 minutes to a central shopping center. The Marina restaurants also minutes away. Would definately recommend this hotel. Loved staying here. Great ambience, very friendly place to stay.

Great hotel! Very new and staff were super friendly, gave us a very early check-in which was great! Rooms were bright, clean and wifi was strong. Only down side was the shower which is a see-through shower outside of the toilet so not great if you are sharing with a friend! This hotel has free car parking and also just next to the train station so very handy.

Ho soggiornato nel fine settimana. Tutto il personale è stato molto gentile e disponibile. La colazione è ricca di prodotti dolci, salati e bevande. Tutto discreto. abbiamo lasciato i bagagli il giorno della partenza per tutto il giorno è stato comodissimo. La zona è fuori mano dal centro che noi però abbiamo sempre raggiunto a piedi anche due volte al giorno. La camera, al nostri arrivo, non era perfettamente pulita perché nella stanza del water c’erano dei capelli e anche nella stanza da letto sul pavimento abbiamo trovato un groviglio di capelli. Adiacente all’hotel c’è la ferrovia e, nonostante l’ottima insonorizzazione è inevitabile sentire il rumore dei treni che fortunatamente non passano la notte ma solo la sera tardi e il mattino presto.

Esta tercera cama es simplemente horrible. No es un colchón, sino una sábana fina. Ofrecer esta habitación para tres personas debería ser ilegal. ¡No hay espacio, y la ducha está en medio de la habitación! Fue simplemente horrible. La habitación, que daba a la calle, era extremadamente ruidosa, y si alguien fuma afuera, ¡se filtra la corriente de aire!

When I arrived I was told that I have access to coffee and tea 24 hours a day. I found it unusual that it's not included with the room. Every other hotel I went to these beverages were free. The room is nice, but the air conditioning stops by itself at night even if it doesn't reach the set temperature.

The hotel is brand new, room was comfortable, parking is a big plus. The lobby cafe is open 24hrs which is also very convenient. Service upon check-in was quick and friendly. However, there's a kid there who either hates his job or simply shouldn't be working with the public at the front desk (or maybe he was having a bad full week). Would consider again as I'm often in the city for business.
