About the hotel

Occupying a privileged hillside position above the Bay of Santander, Eurostars Hotel Real enjoys panoramic views across the sea while remaining close to El Sardinero Beach, the Magdalena Peninsula, and the city’s historic centre. Surrounded by landscaped gardens, the hotel offers a peaceful setting within easy reach of Santander’s cultural and coastal attractions.

Originally inaugurated in 1917 as one of Spain’s great Belle Époque hotels, the property continues to preserve its historic identity while offering contemporary comforts and attentive hospitality. The philosophy centres on classic elegance, spacious accommodation, and refined service, welcoming both leisure and business travellers throughout the year.

The architecture reflects the grandeur of the early twentieth century, with French-inspired façades, sweeping staircases, high ceilings, and elegant lounges complemented by modern guest rooms overlooking the bay or surrounding gardens. Traditional materials, timeless décor, and generous natural light create an atmosphere that remains both sophisticated and inviting.

What distinguishes Eurostars Hotel Real is its combination of historic character, exceptional sea views, and extensive wellness and event facilities. Guests can enjoy Cantabrian cuisine at El Puntal Restaurant, unwind in the thalassotherapy centre, or discover Santander through experiences that celebrate the region’s coastline, gastronomy, and natural landscapes.

Today, Eurostars Hotel Real is best suited to couples, families, business travellers, and those seeking a classic luxury stay overlooking the Bay of Santander. Its historic significance, elegant setting, and generous facilities continue to make it one of northern Spain’s landmark hotels.

Creator experience

Anastasiia Golovina

“I found myself slowing down almost as soon as I arrived. The peaceful views over Santander, elegant interiors, and genuinely welcoming team created the kind of atmosphere where it was easy to switch off and simply enjoy the moment. Rather than feeling busy or lively, it felt like a place made for quiet mornings, meaningful conversations, and proper rest.”
