Sweet space located near caves but musty
The hotel is lovely, in a quaint, old stone home, beautiful flowers in the garden, quiet, and free on-site parking. However, the hotel suffers from mold. If you have a mold allergy, as we did, this is definitely not a place you should stay. Lots of storage space in the room, which was nice, and the beds were very comfortable. Quiet with lovely views but the location was a bit lacking as there was nowhere to walk around, and the nearest food was at least 1.5 km away or more. Service from the owners was great though be forewarned there is no elevator and no one to assist with bags. It was clearly not their fault that the WiFi was not working the first as the cables had been broken although it was a challenge for one of us in the party who had to do work and had to go steal wifi from another location. Would have been great to have been warned of this ahead of time for better planning.

We are very sorry to read your opinion, especially when during your stay with us you did not report any problems, in order to make your stay more special. We can't allow you to say that the house is moldy, that's not true. If you have dust allergy, an old stone and wood house may not be your destination, but mold, sorry, but no. As for the Wi-Fi connection, there was indeed a problem with the telephone company and until it was resolved, we provided the Internet access codes of our personal mobile phone so that you could connect. Less than 24 hours later, service was restored. We do not have an elevator, as we indicate in the hotel services information, but when we received you and offered to help with everything you needed, it included helping with your luggage as we do with all the guests who request it, such as tourist information, which you said you didn't need. We could have discovered you the green landscapes by the river that surround us, in just 3 minutes by car or 20 minutes walking from our house.

A rural stay
The hotel was quite difficult to find not actually in a village in a country lane with other houses with drives and gates. Had to ask directions as the sat/nav finished about 1/2 mile away. Once there plenty of parking in the garden drive area. It's a beautiful property the owner was very welcoming and our room spotless and very cosy and warm. The temperature was around 0c we had already experienced torrential rain, hail stones and snow. Breakfast was excellent plenty of different choices, however dinner was slightly strange, it included a bottle of wine and water but only 1 choice of starter and main course. You had to like fish. Shellfish soup which was quite nice and then mackerel fish balls and chips and a choice of simple desserts. I've already informed the owner about my negative comments and he is going to look into it.

Good morning James, thank you again for your review. We are really sorry about the bad weather during your trip and that your sat/nat was wrong (we don´t know why it finished at 1/2 mile away) we have checked it again and it brings you to the parking. We are glad to hear that you have felt wellcome, your stay in our house was comfortable and you enjoyed our breakfast. We don´t have a restaurant service, we always have a diferent closed menu (first and second course) in the case you don´t want to go out to a restaurant for dinner, it is like having dinner at home. That is why we informed you the day before about the menu for that night. Thanks again. Waiting to see you again in your next trips to Spain. Jose and Sofía

Family loves to take care of guests!!!
We felt so close to our hosts . They treated us very well and insured we got to know the area. The small neighborhood where the Posada was locales made it a very special and private place away from the big city. The family had children to take care and yet they were very accomodating and very aware of our needs. The food provided was excellent and very high quality. Presentation in the eating áreas and the rest of the hotel were spectacular. I will go back there in a heartbeat. Perfect for a romantic honeymoon!!

Wonderful Character hotel/B and B
This was a one night stopover before sailing on the ferry from Santander. La Cotía is nothing short of superb, the best place I have stayed in and I have travelled a lot. This country house has been beautifully done, preserving the character. Absolutely gorgeous. It is comfortable, spacious, full of character and the service was excellent. I had an evening meal and the food was very good at a very reasonable price. The continental breakfast was good too. The surrounding area is beautiful, lovely scenery and although the weather was a bit rainy, it did not harm the scenery. I shall stay here again when next in the area and we shall return to the area specifically spend some time in the area and to stay at Posada de La Cotía.

Thank you for your opinion Alistair, we hope that the boat trip back home has been quiet. And we will try to have good weather when you come back to visit Cantabria, we have a lot of treasures for you to discover. Thanks again for your review

Beautiful, stylish Spanish home
My wife and I spent four nights the Posada La Cotia. Our hosts couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful. La Cotia is a beautifully furnished and comfortable place to stay. Our bedroom was a decent size with a small balcony and like everywhere else in the house very clean. The breakfasts were very very good. An evening meal was available- the menu was very simple and what was available on any evening was announced by around 11am on the morning - it was an extremely reasonable price; worth noting that this meal was served at 9pm. Because it is in the countryside, about 20 miles from Santander, you need to have your own transport. Plenty of interesting places within easy reach. An extremely good value hotel/ bed n'breakfast which we would recommend without hesitation.

The jewel of Cantabria!
Everything about Posada La Cotía was wonderful. Our room was lovely and immaculate with gorgeous decor and inspiring views of the Cantabrian countryside; the building and grounds are enchanting & well maintained; the food at breakfast & especially dinner was so delicious as to make us want to lick our plates; the location was centrally located to the sites we wanted to visit; and Sofía and José were warm, welcoming, and considerate of our interests and needs at every turn. Our only complaint is that we didn't stay longer. What a delight!

Nice hotel for Spanish speaking couples
Hotel is a B&B style hotel in scienic locations and it is designer-decorated in an old world charm fashion. Overall a 5 rating. The owner does not speak English, so the hotel is far best for Spanish speaking couples. Breakfast hours are too late, 9-10 AM, so time flies at this place. Very nice bathrooms and guest rooms with view. Tiny flat screen TV. Excellent bed and pillows.

The best of the best
We booked this little B&B outside of Santander to visit several locations in the area. Our hosts, Sofia and Jose, we're the best, breakfast was great, parking and WiFi top notch. Absolutely everything about this place was wonderful and it was a very impressive house comma Tastefully decorated and full of Old World charm.

Muito bem, confortável e bonito. Apenas o check in foi algo..... Estranho. Reservamos o alojamento às 21,30h e chegamos às 23h. O dono depois de se apresentar disse-nos que devíamos ter chegado até às 18h🤔😏 Se aceita uma reserva às 21,30h, como quereria que estivéssemos ali até às 18h??? De resto, tudo muito bem.

Muchas gracias por su opinión Eduardo, nos encanta saber que se ha sentido tan a gusto en nuestra casa. En cuanto al horario de check in, lo que intenté explicarle es que iba a ver llamadas tanto de la agencia como del establecimiento (que no se preocupase por ellas) puesto que el horario de recepción es hasta las 23:00 h máximo y no teníamos información por su parte de una hora aproximada de llegada, siento no haberme explicado correctamente. Un saludo y hasta la próxima.

Nos alojamos, en esta preciosa casa,dos parejas, el primer fin de semana de abril.Se cumplieron todas nuestras expectativas : las fotos publicadas en la web ,son fieles a la realidad,el entorno fantástico,cuidado,muy bonito;la casa es realmente única.Los detalles te sorprenden, tanto en la decoración(exquisita), como en el trato.Hay algo que no quiero pasar por alto porque realmente me impactó y es el aroma sutil que envolvía toda la casa cuando llegamos, incluso fuera ,en el porche;hasta en eso que en fotos no se aprecia,ponen cuidado.Es muy acogedora,está perfectamente equipada (climatización,camas muy muy cómodas, el baño muy completo,hervidor de agua en la habitación para preparar café o infusión......);el desayuno riquísimo,muy abundante y variado(cada dia sorprenden con distintos alimentos y dulces caseros recién horneados).Por último ,decir que Jose es un excelente anfitrión,nos informó muy bien sobre todo.Se nota que le gusta lo que hace,es encantador.Muchas gracias por estos dias maravillosos.
