Nestled in the medieval village of Santillana del Mar, this hotel has plenty of rustic charm and picturesque views over the surrounding garden and countryside.

Thanks to the Solana's great location, you can enjoy mountain, beach and culture during your holiday. The golden beaches of the Cantabrian coastline are just over 3 km away while the fine city of Santander is 20 km away and worth a daytrip. Alternatively, explore the beautiful scenery with a long country walk. Make a visit to the enchanting Altamira caves, under a kilometre from the Solana.

Beatriz was a wonderful hostess. She was very welcoming and very helpful. We can certainly recommend a stay at Posada La Solana.

    The accommodation was beautiful and everything was exactly as we expected from description and photographs. This family run posada is a gem because it is just outside of the main village but close enough to walk. Great car parking facilities too! Having a kettle and fridge in the room was very good 👍 lovely hosts who speak only a little English , we wish we spoke more Spanish.

    Very comfortable stay, we loved how spotlessly clean everything was. The apartment is in a quiet location tucked away from the road and town. It has a lovely garden to relax in or for the kids or pets to play. It is equipped with everything you would need. Bed is very comfortable, everything is functional and carefully thought out. Would love to come back again in the future.

    Lovely modern hotel, great outdoor and pool area including a tree house and a drinks truck. Fab cocktails. Very friendly staff. Clean. Breakfast and dinner were really good. Great location on the edge of town but not even a 5 minute walk to the centre.

    This was amazing. Our first rest day on the Camino and we treated ourselves. Lovely pool and a well-equipped apartment that was quite spacious. Just on the outskirts of Santillina del Mar it is an easy stroll into this beautiful historic town. Highly recommended for those craving a little luxury.

    Very relaxing hotel. Super pool and gardens. Lovely bedroom. We really liked the jacuzzi bath. We were so pleased that we could borrow ebikes. We didn’t plan to have breakfast but we were so pleased that we did. Super service and delicious food. It was also a lovely touch being giving a bag with water and biscuits for the journey.
