Quinta San Francisco

Hotel Quinta San Francisco is really a special place to have the chance to stay. We arrived as a family of four; 2 adults, a baby and a 4 year old. It was the perfect stop on our journey back up through Northern Spain to Santander. The calmness I felt after a day of travel there. The beauty of the place, the smell of lavender, the kindness of the staff. There is an integrity here, a balance of old and new. I really can't wait to return.

We stopped here while walking the Camino and ended up staying an extra night—an absolute gem. This is easily the most peaceful place I’ve ever stayed. Total zen. The views were breathtaking, and the staff were genuinely warm and welcoming. A perfect retreat.

Beautiful hotel with pristine grounds, but it is simply not equipped for summer temperatures. None of the rooms have air conditioning. I was extremely uncomfortable for the two days I spent there. It was so unbearably hot that we had to look for places to stay cool outside of the hotel. This is simply unacceptable for a hotel of this high standard and price. I would actively discourage anyone from staying during the months of June to August, particularly if you have respiratory problems. I was really looking forward to staying at this hotel, especially based on the many positive reviews, but they are simply not being honest about some of the very real flaws that have the potential to mar the experience.
