La Terraza De Puente Viesgo — Restaurant in Puente Viesgo

I chose this hotel solely as a one night stopover while we visited the caves - El Monte Castillo. Had no expectations given how little they were charging.|But it was easy to find, beautifully if simply furnished and decorated. A very comfortable night’s sleep. Lovely, welcoming staff. A lovely garden and terrace to eat out on (though sadly it rained the evening we were there). Very busy with locals. Given we were just passing through we decided to eat in, but then surprised to be told that separate from the al a carte menu, and the €18 menu del dia, there was a special menu for residents at just €12 - which we opted for, washed down with a bottle of Rueda vertijo for €7.50.|Breakfast was simple but good, and included in our room fee.|Our room at the front of the hotel had an attractive balcony, not available at the back. It did overlook the busy road but good double glazing held back most of the noise.|The only downside was the lack of a carpark - you have to use the nearby public carpark.|But I’d definitely stay here again - it’s only 20 mins from Santander and the ferry so an easy stopover, although the lovely spa village of Puente Viesgo has...

We stayed two nights at this very comfortable and clean hotel. The half board deal at 68 euros for two, was exceptionally good value. We had a large and comfortable bed, room and bathroom. All well appointed and clean. Staff were very helpful and, food really good. On the first evening I ordered the fish soup which was served in a big tureen and sufficient for four people but only for me, yummy. My partners starter an elegant langostine served in a rolled pate and courgette curl would have been happily received in a classy restaurant, mains were very tasty too. All for 9 euros including a drink per person. Not much English spoken but the lovely staff will do their best. Only 30 minutes drive from Santander ferry. Only downside is the rooms at the front are next to the busy road. With the windows closed not a problem but, would be in hot weather as there is no aircon. Rooms at the back are quiet but considerably smaller room and beds.Very pretty village and river across the road a little and, only a kilometer to the famous caves. This is not a "posh" hotel but a good venta (bar) with good...
