Hotel Valentin

A treasured gem just 65 miles from Santander so easy for access to ferryport . The rooms are spacious & there is plenty of hot water to enjoy. There is central heating in the rooms. The staff are extremely helpful & friendly , speaking some English. The restaurant opens at 9 in the evening but the quality of the food is worth the wait. The staff go out of their way to cater for any dietary requirements with nothing being too much trouble - the waiting staff speak some English & are super helpful. Breakfast is served by friendly male staff in the cafeteria & is perfectly adequate.

We had booked to stay here for 1 night but due to the ferry cancellation, we spent an extra 3 nights here. Considering it was Easter the hotel staff were very accommodating in finding us space. The weather was cold but the hotel rooms were warm, beds comfortable & plenty of hot water available for a bath! The food in the dining room was exceptional with an amazing choice of dishes, As I am lactose intolerant, this was not a problem for the staff & seemed to take it in their stride. All staff were very friendly & went out of their way to try to speak some English so life over an Easter period was special. We will always recommend this hotel as its within an hour travel from Santander & very easy to find - you cannot go wrong!!

This is a lovely hotel with every available facility required for a weary traveller. Its in an easy location just off A67 so only 1 hour from Santander. Its a very pretty historic town with a pretty river setting just off the main square The staff were extremely helpful & spoke good English. The rooms were spacious although on the basic side, they were very clean. There is a good restaurant serving menu del dia from 9 at night & the cafeteria where breakfast is eaten, was well staffed & clean. This is a perfect location for travellers who want a convenient stop-over. Our only complaint, which the managment could not deal with effectively was the noise generated by a group of Portuguese students who happened to be staying at the same time We would use this hotel again.

Good hotel restaurant in town center. Some free parking around the building available if lucky. Otherwise there is an underground hotel parking area available at extra cost. Good, comfortable rooms. Very good beds. Large restaurant and separate large bar/cafeteria. Both very popular with the locals. Reasonable prices and very good all in daily 3 course menu @ 17 euros pp on weekdays and 19 euros pp on Sundays.

We stayed at this lovely hotel because of a recommendation, and we are very grateful to our friend and want to pass it on. Aguilar de Campoo is a very pretty river town to visit, with its own castle, enchanting architecture, great street market and interesting history. We were on our way to the Santander ferry, and it’s a great stopover one hour away, but will definitely revisit this hotel when we return to Spain because it’s a great hotel to base yourself. We were in a newly renovated room with balcony and a lovely garden view. The staff are very warm and welcoming, the restaurant is fabulous and serves an excellent 3 course menu of the day with bread and a bottle of wine for 14 euros. They kindly offer a translation in English, which was gratefully received, as, despite my best efforts to learn Spanish, menus can be a bit of a mine field! I write this review while I’m still here because they have given us a special finish to our journey through Portugal and Spain. Thank you to the staff of the Valentin hotel. We will return, as I’m sure many of your previous guests do also. Muchas gracias , Johanna & Paul Xx

Siempre que voy al norte de turismo como aquí,el trato muy bueno y la comida escelente,nunca nos defrauda, y la calidad y el precio muy a su justa medida,volveremos siempre que pasemos por Aguilar nunca miramos otro sitio porque este nos encanta.
