"This is a great hotel, which I've stayed at on numerous occasions. Room is clean, tidy and has everything you expect. Reception is good and there is good ( albeit expensive ) underground parking (17 Euros). Breakfast was plentiful and tasty."
"The Parador de Limpias is in a lovely old building with modern ‘wings’ added - we were not too sure if the modern architecture matched the historic original architecture - however, everyone has their own taste in architecture. The Parador is ideally located for the short drive back to the Santander Ferry Terminal. Our room was lovely (but no tea/coffee making equipment) and the staff were charming. There are two choices for parking - free parking in the hotel grounds a few minutes walk from the building, or right next to the hotel for a few euros a day. Do not be misled by out of date reviews on other websites - the hotel indoor pool closed three years ago! The outdoor pool looked delightful but…. it was closed, as Parador swimming pools only open on 1 June. The town is only a five minute walk away - but not much to see. We were surprised to hear very loud engine revving on the Saturday evening - we wandered into town to find that it was the prelude to the annual Limpias Road Rally - tannoys were announcing the cars and their drivers who were preparing for the next day’s rally. I had forgotten how loud rally car engines are! We made a swift retreat back to the relative tranquillity of the Parador and were then serenaded all day, next day, with the sound of cars racing around the local roads. If you like road rallies, then it will be worth visiting next year. If you like peace and tranquility then I would recommend checking the websites to definitely avoid those dates!!"
"The location of this hotel is very good and convenient for getting around the city. However, the room was a bit small.
My main concern was the air conditioning. During our stay, the weather was very hot, but the air conditioning in our room was very weak and did not cool the room properly. We reported this to the reception, but were told that the system was less effective because many guests were using it at the same time. Unfortunately, the issue was not resolved, and we felt quite uncomfortable during the nights because of the heat.
One of the reasons I chose this hotel was because I expected reliable air conditioning, so this was particularly disappointing. Considering the price we paid, I expected a more comfortable experience.
In addition, the hair dryer provided in the room was not clean.
While the location is a strong point, the poor air conditioning significantly affected our stay."
