Gonzaga is the most sought-after beach district in Santos, and hotels here put you steps from the sand and the shopping along Avenida Ana Costa. The Novotel Santos Gonzaga sits a short walk from the beach with ocean-view rooms and a rooftop pool, while Ibis Santos Gonzaga Praia offers a more budget-friendly base. For a historic feel, Atlantico Hotel has sea views and a prime beachfront location in the heart of Gonzaga.
Ponta da Praia is the easternmost beach area, quieter than Gonzaga and home to the ferry terminal and the Santos beachfront mall. Sheraton Santos Hotel is a 5-star property with an indoor pool, walkable to Ponta da Praia and the mall. Comfort Hotel Santos offers pool, sauna, and sea views in the same district, with family-friendly suites.
For the best value, look to the 2-star and basic 3-star hotels scattered across Gonzaga and the center. Ibis Budget Santos Gonzaga offers a no-fuss beach budget stay within minutes of the beach, while Hotel Natal provides a central 2-star option with air conditioning and Wi-Fi. Budget prices start around $27–$35 per night.
Santos offers a solid collection of 4-star hotels with pools, most of them along the beachfront. Novotel Santos Gonzaga features a rooftop pool and ocean-view rooms, while Parque Balneario Hotel Santos By Castelo Itaipava provides beachfront convenience with another rooftop pool. Mercure Santos adds pools, a sauna, and spacious rooms in a beachfront setting.
Sea views are a major draw in Santos, and the beachfront hotels in Gonzaga and Ponta da Praia deliver. Sheraton Santos Hotel offers rooms with ocean views, and Comfort Hotel Santos has sea views along with a pool. Novotel Santos Gonzaga's ocean-view rooms come with a rooftop pool, and Atlantico Hotel provides a historic option with sea views in Gonzaga.
If you're catching a cruise, stay close to the port terminal in the historic center. Ibis Santos Valongo is a 3-star with a spot near the cruise port and convenient parking. Monte Serrat Hotel is also near the port, praised for its breakfast and central location.
Santos has only a couple of 5-star hotels, and the standout is Sheraton Santos Hotel, rated 9.2 out of 10 with 2,619 reviews. It's walkable to Ponta da Praia and the beachfront mall, offering an indoor pool. The other 5-star option is not listed here, but Sheraton sets the standard for luxury in the city.

For a first visit, stay in Gonzaga or Ponta da Praia. Gonzaga is lively with beach access, shopping, and dining; Ponta da Praia is quieter with the beachfront mall and easy ferry access. Both put you steps from the sand, and most beachfront hotels are here.
Yes, several hotels are near the cruise port in the historic center. Ibis Santos Valongo is a 3-star option with convenient parking and a short walk to the terminal. Monte Serrat Hotel is also close, near the port and praised for its breakfast.
Like most Brazilian beach cities, prices drop during the low season from April to November, excluding holidays. Expect the cheapest rates in winter months (June–August) when demand is lower, though always verify current deals.
Santos hotels cluster around two very different poles: the beachfront districts of Gonzaga and Ponta da Praia, where you can step from your hotel onto the sand and find rooftop pools, and the historic center near the port, where simpler, budget-friendly stays put you close to the city's café-filled streets and the cruise terminal. Hotels here range from about $10 to $380 per night, though most travelers pay around $40.
The beachfront is where the majority of the 4-star properties sit, with names like Sheraton Santos and Mercure Santos offering sea views and pools. Inland and downtown, the 2-star and 3-star hotels deliver honest value and easy access to public transport or the port. Because the page also includes some guest houses and inns, you'll see a few non-hotel options mixed in among the listings.
Santos' hotel scene is split between beachfront comfort in Gonzaga and Ponta da Praia and practical, budget-friendly stays in the center. Beach lovers and families will find the best value in the 4-star properties with pools and sea views, while cruise passengers should base themselves near the port. For travelers on a strict budget who don't mind being a bit inland, the 2-star and basic 3-star hotels offer clean, central options at a fraction of the beachfront price.
