Dormos Hotel

Location is perfect. Close to the center but away from all the craziness.

I paid extra for top floor which had a small plunge pool and terrace and lovely and fresh. The pool machine was a bit noisy and they turned it off which made a big difference and thus quieter.

We initially struggled to find the hotel as we walked up from the train station and it is located on a corner. The staff we dealt with were very helpful. There is what looks like it could be a bar or breakfast room at the side of the reception but I never saw anyone in it and it wasn’t inviting to go and sit in it. Our room was very clean and the bed was very comfortable but small. There was no hospitality tray but you can ask for a kettle and cups if you bring your own tea etc. there was no toiletries other than soap in the bathroom, no dressing gowns or slippers. There is hardly any room to hang your clothes as it is a rail next to the window. We like to have the news on in the back ground when we are in the room but unfortunately the English Channel didn’t work very well. I have given it 4 stars as it was very clean and modern, the staff were helpful and the location was very central to the beach and to the town. If I returned to Cadiz I would return to this hotel but would probably look at booking a room with a terrace and pool as it would have been relaxing after walking about all day. We liked Santa Maria beach better than Caleta and it was nearer. We recommend eating at Salicornia Restaurant which is only a 4 min walk away, near the plaza.

We stayed in the Dormos with our daughter and best friends. They accommodated us brilliantly and were very flexible with our last minute changes in travel arrangements meaning we arrived a night early. The quality of the rooms is fantastic, cleaned daily, which was a welcome surprise. Lovely decor too and the rooms with plunge pool are especially good. My only small suggestions would be the addition of a mirror in the bedrooms as well as the bathroom and a mite more storage space. More readily available coffee and water in the bar area would be fantastic. Generally though, the staff were brilliant and we would definitely stay there again. Suitable for wheelchair users with accessible ground floor rooms but there is also a lift too. Note that this may not be the best part of town for wheelchairs though as there is a short but relatively steep hill down to the main town. You can avoid this by going the long way round though!

Perfect location - a few minutes walk from the sea, the city centre and the station. Really friendly helpful staff, immaculately clean. Peaceful. Would definitely stay here again. All amenities in room - fridge, hairdryer, aircon, free Wifi. Massive and really powerful shower. Staff member on the desk 24 hours, always happy to help with any question.

Excellent location right in between sea front and cathedral. If you can go for one of roof top rooms with private plunge pool. Although there was a big storm when we were there still managed a Whim Hoff type plunge. Hotel is chic and modern. No parking but municipal one down the road but a bit expensive. Definately stay here again.

The roof top view from our room were spectacular with views of the sea from left right and center.

Affordable and awesome location for walking around!
