Real

Luxury hotel in Santander This five stars hotel is located in the best residential area in Santander, on a top of a hill overlooking the bay, between the centre and El Sardinero beaches. It occupies the Iberian Peninsula and is bathed by the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and the Cantabrian Sea. The building is a majestic palace surrounded by its own gardens and close to the beach. It also includes the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands in the Atlantic and the cities of Ceuta and Melilla Its total surface area is 504,788 sq kms Spain's powerful world empire of the 16th and 17th centuries ultimately yielded command of the seas to England. Ordered to be build in 1916 by the king Alfonso XIII, offers several luxuous facilities. Subsequent failure to embrace the mercantile and industrial revolutions caused the country to fall behind Britain, France, and Germany in economic and political power. Among these there are its six sitting rooms enveloped in a sumptuous material, ideal for whom appreciates the value of details. Spain remained neutral in World Wars I and II, but suffered through a devastating Civil War (1936-39). It has also a thalassotherapy centre in a new French style building of 1400 square metres. In the second half of the 20th century, it has played a catch-up role in the western international community. Its 114 rooms are very large, outside situated, decorated in classical furniture of noble wood, well-cared tapestry and some renewed pieces from the beginning of the 20th century. Continuing concerns are large-scale unemployment and the Basque separatist movement The diversity and contrast that go to mould the character of Spain are likewise in evidence in its cities. It has all kinds of comforts of a hotel of high category, from satellite television to bathrobe, laundry service or phone extension in its bathrooms made of marble. Celts, Iberians, Phoenicians and, at a later date, the Greco-Roman civilisation laid the first cornerstones of urban settlements which, to this day, bear the marks of their passage through time During the Middle Ages, Arabic, Jewish and Christian cultures, singly and through a process of mutual cross-influence, gave rise to the birth of cities which have come to house an historical-artistic heritage of incalculable proportions Tradition alone does not suffice Modernity too is essential, and this was something certain Spanish monarchs –Charles III for one– managed to successfully apply during their reigns in order to beautify townscapes, like that of Madrid, with parks and landmark monuments, thereby instilling the city with a spirit of renewal. Notice: During the summer, the hotel gives the breakfast away. It was this element of urban renewal that became even more evident at a later date, in the form of townplans designed to extend and enlarge the leading cities, and the construction of graceful buildings which, in keeping with the shifts and changes in architectural tastes, have helped shape the identity of Spain’s cities over the last two hundred years. Valid offer for any type of room, accumulated to other offers available at the moment. This contrast is also to be seen in the individual heartbeat of Spain’s cities, where surroundings, climate and daily lifestyles harmonise to lend each its own typical character and atmosphere.
