What guests think
At Silken Rio Santander Hotel, travelers often praise the beachfront Sardinero location, welcoming staff, clean spaces, and sea views, while noting small rooms, road and corridor noise affecting some stays, and inconsistent or weak air conditioning as recurring drawbacks.
Breakfast is generally well liked with decent variety, though some found it expensive, average, or hampered by limited staffing or evening restaurant closures. Parking is free on nearby streets but competitive, hotel spaces are limited, and several guests mentioned access challenges from steps and level changes. Good for travelers who want easy access to Santander without staying in the city center.

Rent och fräscht. Urusel AC som inte sänkte temperaturen i rummet. Gratis allmän parkering inom promenadavstånd av hotellet. Bra service av personal. Utmärkt läge till stranden. Lätt att ta buss till centrum och fiskdistriktet.

The only thing is that due to its location the parking is complicated and smelly, we just left the car in there to the last day. The breakfast buffet was just good, but they don’t clean the used tables, so we moved the dirty dishes ti another table to be able to seat where we want, and you need to ask for juice etc; the staff were good and nice, but what happen is that there’re only two workers; they moved fast and wanted to help everyone but there were much of guest for only two staff. On the other hand Marea Alta has great menu and the staff was very professional and friendly; the paella was exquisite, I recommend it.

Helt ok. Ligger nära stranden men långt från cnetrum. AC fungerar dåligt. Dåliga mörkläggningsgardiner så instrålningen blir dessutom stor. Mycket ljud från gata samt korridor. Helt ok frukost. Många olika trappsteg och krångliga nivåskillnader som inte framgår i beskrivningen. Bo inte här om tillgänglighet är en viktig del av ditt boende. Väldigt svårt att hitta parkeringsplats, det kostar inget att parkera men det är alltid fullt överallt så var beredd på att snurra rundor och leta. Finns en del trevlig restauranger i närheten av boendet. Fin strandpromenad. Även nivåskillnad ner till stranden, dock finns anpassad brant platt nedgång till sanden.

Hôtel tout proche du bord de mer, mais sans extérieur appartenant à l’hôtel, avec une cafétéria proposant une petite restauration et un restaurant, fermé le soir au moment du séjour. Très bon petit déjeuner, beaucoup de choix. Chambre très correcte, spacieuse et propre, toutefois une bouilloire avec thé/café et une bouteille d’eau seraient sympa comme accueil. Personnel très aimable et serviable.

Fuimos con nuestro peque de 22 meses. Para entrar en la recepción hay cuatro o cinco escaleras sin rampa, tienen un elevador con llave para sillas de ruedas pero no te dejan utilizarlo para los carritos de niños. En la habitación solo nos pusieron los complementos del baño (champú, gel, gorro, cepillo y pasta de dientes) para una persona, cierto que llamamos a recepción y lo completaron. Lo peor sin duda fue que debido al diseño de la ventana/balcon, que hace esquina, queda bastante hueco entre las cortinas y la pared, y entraba toda la luz de la farola de la calle, lo que impidió que pudiéramos descansar porque la habitación estaba muy iluminada. El descanso fue nulo. La limpieza era correcta y está situado en una zona tranquila

Stayed for 2 nights. Return visit to Santander in two months. Decided to stay near the beach. Room was good. We had a sea view. The room was on the main road looking on to the bay. Was a little noisy but not late into the night. Breakfast was good. We had breakfast tea which for Spain was very good. Also had Cava at breakfast! There was no outside space at all. Location was excellent.

The only thing is that due to its location the parking is complicated and smelly, we just left the car in there to the last day. The breakfast buffet was just good, but they don’t clean the used tables, so we moved the dirty dishes ti another table to be able to seat where we want, and you need to ask for juice etc; the staff were good and nice, but what happen is that there’re only two workers; they moved fast and wanted to help everyone but there were much of guest for only two staff. On the other hand Marea Alta has great menu and the staff was very professional and friendly; the paella was exquisite, I recommend it.

Excellent location across the road from a lovely beach. Nice staff at the front desk gave us an upgrade to sea view room which was much appreciated. Comfortable bed in a decent sized room. Breakfast was ok, not the best

Hôtel tout proche du bord de mer, mais sans extérieur appartenant à l’hôtel, avec une cafétéria proposant une petite restauration et un restaurant, fermé le soir au moment du séjour. Très bon petit déjeuner, beaucoup de choix. Chambre très correcte, spacieuse et propre, toutefois une bouilloire avec thé/café et une bouteille d’eau seraient sympa comme accueil. Personnel très aimable et serviable.

We got upgraded to beach view which was an amazing view. Reception staff were excellent. The restaurant was unfortunately closed so we ate on the bar, food was good but server was very abrupt.

This hotel is in a fantastic location across from the beach and is near some very good pintxos bars. It's also only a very short walk from the Palico de Magdelana, and its a very pleasant walk into town.
