The Silken Coliseum stands out as much for its unique façade as its impressive service. It lies in the very hub of Santander, between its historic centre and Plaza Italia. The hotel’s privileged position means that it is close to both the commercial centre and the city’s summer leisure area, surrounded by beautiful buildings such as the Magdalena Palace and the university. The historic surroundings blend well with the high-tech facilities available within the hotel, which include an internet corner and state-of-the-art conference facilities. The decor throughout is contemporary in style, with clean lines and atmospheric lighting.
