El Corte Inglés

The nationwide department store chain enjoys a well-deserved good reputation. The Santander instalment is located a short drive outside the city centre. Apart from a large hypermarket, it contains a multiple-screen cinema, as well as a wide selection of local and international brand stores.

Shopping

Santander’s shopping district is in its bustling centre. The streets around the Ayuntamiento–Artigas, Juan Herrera, Burgos and Cubo, for example, are good for everything from clothing to shoes to sportswear, as are Vargas and San Fernando. For boutiques and upmarket clothing, take a stroll along the Avenida de Calvo Sotelo. There are two large commercial centres in Santander, both located a short drive out of town — Valle Real and the well-known Spanish department store chain instalment El Corte Inglés.
