What guests think

Dorma Coliseum earns steady praise for its central, walkable location, welcoming staff, and clean, comfortable rooms, with many seeing strong value and convenient access to the city — though opinions diverge on certain amenities and extras.

Guests frequently note spacious layouts, very comfortable beds, and, in some cases, quiet rooms despite the setting; others mention street noise, unattractive internal views, or overly warm rooms when air conditioning is off seasonally. Breakfast is widely rated good to excellent, though a few report inconsistent items or service, and some find the bar offering limited. Onsite parking is secure and handy but can be scarce or comparatively expensive. Overall, a practical choice for exploring Santander on foot.

Location is EXCELLENT, in the heart of the city with phenomenal dining options all around, walking to the Mercado La Esperanza, Centro Botin, all the jobs on Calle Lealtad, etc. Hotel is overpriced for the comfort and amenities offered. TV channels are only in Spanish, not even 1 single English channel so it's like they use an antenna to pick up local channels only and not pay for cable or satellite like most hotels in their price range offer. Paper cups for coffee that disintegrate within mins so you have to be quick to drink whatever you put it and not get a 3rd degree burn. Hotel advertises parking but it's incredibly limited, costs 22 EUR if/when available. There's a public parking at the Mercado La Esperanza which is literally 2-3mins walk and it cost 19 EUR.

Un Hotel que defrauda por precio y ser un 4 estrellas tan céntrico. Polvo en muchos sitios de la habitación, manía con dejar solo una toalla de ducha siendo 2 personas,la nevera del mini bar no funcionaba, ventana pequeña con vistas a un patio interior, desayuno buffet corto en opciones para el precio que tiene, aunque de buena calidad y con personal atento y amable. Para mi gusto y experiencia, le sobra una estrella y por tanto, es excesivamente caro

The hotel is in the middle of town on a very busy road, so is very noisy even with the double glazing. I wouldn't pay the extra for a city view as all you can see is the apartment blocks opposite. The rooms are ridiculously hot as like most Spanish hotels this time of year they turn off their air conditioning ,so it's irrelevant if it's 20 plus degrees outside you just roast. The restaurant staff in particular breakfast were rude and for some stange reason decided to clean one of the two coffee machines in the middle of service, ridiculous. Finally I've never been to a hotel who charged to top up the coffee and tea supplies in the room.
