Was very upset, arrived at 6pm, to be told there was no parking available, my car had lots of valuables in it and needed to be securely parked, the lady on the desk was most unhelpful, just said to use a car park 200 m, away, it took us an hour and 15 mins driving round the centre of Santander to find it, then was not really happy with the location and security of it, so overall most disappointed

City centre location although not as easy to find by car as the seafront hotels Had asked for a non smoking room and although booking made well in advance of trip none were available. For one night not a disaster but would have been very unpleasant if staying longer. Hotel car park was full although there are public car parks in reasonable walking distance.

Very convenient location, easily accessed by car. Staff friendly and very helpful. Excellent room. I'll be back. Parking (16 euros) is a little overpriced.

This is a fantastically located hotel for the amazing bars in Santander - it's a sophisticated place and this is a great hotel if you want to have great wine and tapas and walks along the bay. El Sardinero is a short bus journey or a long walk but is very easy to get to from the hotel. In short, Santander is an incredible place whatever kind of holiday you want and this hotel is really good value to explore all that from.

Central to all amenities, ferry, train and bus station all within a ten minute walk of each. Staff were very professional, courteous, spoke english well and went out of their way to help. Overall a very pleasant 5 day stay, would definitely return to this hotel and have no hesitation to reccommend The Silken Coliseum for any length of stay in Santander

The location couldn't be beaten - only a few paces for shopping, sights, restaurants and seaside walks. The underground car park was a huge bonus. Friendly efficient staff were welcoming and helpful. The clean comfortable room was just what we needed for a good night's sleep and to relax after a long journey and site seeing. Our room was at the back and you could have heard a pin drop it was so quiet. We'll definitely be staying again. We liked everything we experienced. We are not big breakfasters, so the fixed price breakfast menu was a bit steep for our requirements, but nearby cafes filled that requirement.

The hotel is well located to the city centre and bus and rail stations. You need a bus to get to the beaches, which when you get there are clean and well serviced. Buses are very frequent and cheap. The room was large. The bed was large and comfortable. The bathroom was excellent. The carpet was a little grotty. However, the other positives far outweighted this. Reception staff were very helpful. throughout. Santander is well worth a visit One had to pay to access the internet. Even a basic breakfast was not included in the price.

We enjoyed our stay and the room was good, however, we were very dissapointed that we could not book a car parking space. As we were travelling through santander on route to france on a surfing holiday, secure car parking was an issue. It was inconvenient to have to unload all of our luggage and equipment before having to find somewhere to park. We were told by your staff at reception that we could park outside the Town Hall, just around the corner. We were unable to get a ticket for parking and was also told that it didn't matter as it was late in the evening and as long as we moved the car at 8 A.M. the following morning it would be no problem. At 8am the following day we went to move the car to find that it was not there! It had been towed away by the police! We then discovered that we should have moved it by 7am not 8am as we were told. We then had to go to the police vehicle pound to collect our car, and pay a fine of 117 euros!! This was not a very good start to our holiday.

This very comfortable hotel is in a good location within the city for ferries and the city commercial and shopping centre. It has covered parking albeit at a daily charge. Breakfast is not included but is good value. The hotel is quiet and well managed. There is a restaurant which we did not sample but which is a useful asset it in any Spanish City since otherwise getting food at a convenient time can be problematical. The hotel advertised itself as being within 500m of a beach. If that is the case then we went to the wrong beach. There is a lovely beach at Santander but we used our bikes to get there. Once you are out of the immediate city centre there is a bike lane along the front. It is too far to walk comfortably to the beach and parking is too restricted to be able to drive with any assurance.

The location of this hotel is excellent, placed as it is in the centre of Santander. Very convenient for business, shopping, leisure, beach, ferry, railway and other onward travel. The market and a wide range of cafes and restaurants are nearby. The breakfast is a little pricey but good. Convenient to have secure on-site parking in a city centre. The soundproofing between rooms and the street is only average. Determining the hotel name at street level is difficult, especially whilst navigating the one way system in a car!
