We are Jorge and Macarena, owners of the estate and Hotel Palacio de Caranceja, and we would like to welcome you to this very special place, a place full of soul, where history, nature and hospitality coexist.
The Hotel Palacio de Caranceja was born from our father's family dream: to recover the splendour of an estate with centuries of history and open its doors to those who value authenticity and tradition.
In 2007, our father and his sister, an architect, began the renovation of this former 17th century palace with the aim of restoring its grandeur and transforming it into a lively boutique hotel, which opened its doors in 2008. From the outset, they have managed to combine the character of traditional architecture with contemporary comfort, respecting the original materials, furnishings and trades that gave it its identity, and incorporating modern elements such as marble bathrooms, a meticulous decoration and all the amenities necessary to guarantee a comfortable and pleasant stay befitting a four-star hotel.
Since then, the finca has been a place to meet, work and rest. We have welcomed travellers from all over the world and celebrated more than 100 weddings, many of them taking advantage of the beauty of our gardens, which provide the perfect setting for weddings, wedding ceremonies and special outdoor celebrations. They have also been the ideal setting for other corporate events or photo shoots, where nature and history intertwine to create unique moments.
After a few years in which we handed over the running of the hotel to a third party, in 2020 the family decided to take over the management of the hotel personally. We are a small team, not a big company or an investment fund, and that is why we put all our love, effort and attention to every detail. Our team is close and trustworthy, they love this place and its tradition with us. They are professionals with extensive experience in the sector and will be delighted to accompany you during your stay so that you can enjoy a truly unforgettable experience. Because for us, every guest who walks through our doors is important.
As it could not be otherwise, we are firmly committed to Cantabrian artisan and local products. In our offer we prioritise local ingredients and traditional preparations, supporting local producers and sharing with our guests the best of the land that surrounds us.
