Hotels in San Sebastian

I cannot recommend this hotel enough. We had a great experience during our visit and the director, Christina could not possibly do anymore to accommodate us. She was friendly, and eager to assist us with anything we needed. She suggested activities and restaurants. She gave us a list of places we could go for entertainment and overall looked after us as if we were the only guests at the hotel. We look...

Perfect hotel in every way, clean and quiet. Great if travelling with kids, there’s even a play area in the lobby. Staff are genuinely pleasant and helpful. Food was good, and I would definitely return!

This is a great place to stay. The bed is big and comfortable, and the shower has jets. The room with a balcony in a quiet location. We recommend everyone to stay in this hotel. The staff were very open and friendly.

Good hotel efficient friendly, helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Great location for the beach and local cafés

A very unimpressive stay. The hotel is decently located, with a bus stop in front and about a 15 minutes walk away from the beach. The rooms can be a bit cramped depending on which one you are allocated and they need some TLC. My sink stopper wouldn’t let the water drain, the night light didn’t work, the iron didn’t work. The sliding door to the bathroom is inconvenient. Water pressure is not great...

Nice hotel . We had a dinner here - the meal was good- the salad was wonderful! It’s a little far from the downtown/restaurant. However, the walk along the beach was fantastic!

Great hotel in the beautiful neighbourhood of Onderetta. The rooms are much larger than you get in the Old Town and the bathroom was fantastic, with a great power shower. Lots of lovely, quality restaurants in the area and Onderetta beach is less than a 5 min walk away. It’s a 20 min walk to the centre of San Sebastián but it’s a stunning, totally flat walk we gladly made at least twice a day. We will...

We booked our trip last minute in high season with this great hotel in a perfect location. Everything was completely booked out and the only reason we got so lucky to have a spot, was because of the persistent help Juan gave us to find a solution. We took therefore an air matrass for our child, but at the end we got our desired king bed with an extra bed for our child.

5-10 min walk to San Sebastian beech. Good breakfast and clean but only shower and no bath tub. Close to local super market. Need to go outside once to go fitness gym.

Stayed for 2 nights with our dog! The room was a good size, the bed was super comfy and the staff at check in were very friendly! The hotel is close to the beach only about a 10 minute walk! The old town is further but very easy to walk to or a take a bus. We will be back!

A lovely hotel in a quiet neighbourhood - quite far walk from the old town but if you are up for a hefty exercise this is fine. There are a good decent amount of restaurants and cafes nearby. The room is very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It is spacious enough with a luxurious large bathroom. We appreciate the extra large sized bed with firm mattress and fluffy pillows. Parking is 4euros along...

Decent and modern hotel in San Sebastián. Hotel is quite far away from old town and touristic places. Value for money with all full amenities in rooms and the welcome dessert platter. Rooms are a bit small though got good view of neighboring buildings. At late night heard some shouting from restaurants nearby. Nice breakfast spread though a bit on the high price.

What a great place to stay. Thanks to all the staff who helped make our time here memorable. The servers who worked breakfast, those in the bar during the evening, and the concierge all added to a great experience. Thanks again.

Spectacular room, guests services and amenities. The location is perfect on the river for old town, new town and Gros. It is a very quick and easy walk if you are planning for time on the beach as well. I walked with a chair and bag and was at beach in 5 minutes. I would choose this property again over a property just to be directly on the beach. The rooms were very spacious. We were surprised at the...

From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome, going above and beyond to make our stay special. The surprises they had prepared for my birthday were truly thoughtful and added a magical touch to our trip. The luxurious rooms, impeccable service, and attention to detail made it a memorable experience that exceeded all expectations. I can’t recommend this hotel enough for anyone...

I really like the hotel and enjoy everything except that there was no toilet amenity and when we asked for it, staff came to bring us… but quite stingy… 2 ladies for 1 tooth paste. Common, the rate is over 1000 Euro a night … it is not cheap guest house. (The hotel even charge nearly 50 Euro for parking, so you understand what I mean and I am Bonvoy member). Beside that incident, I like everything...

Our stay at Maria Cristina in San Sebastián was nothing short of exceptional. The hotel's location is unbeatable, nestled in the heart of the city with easy access to the beautiful beaches and vibrant old town. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable; the staff went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and comfortable throughout our stay. The food at the hotel was outstanding...

Within walking distance of many shops and restaurants. So close to the beach. You can use their bikes to explore this beautiful city. Concierge is super helpful for restaurant reservations and advice. Beautiful rooms! Amazing breakfast.

Absolutely wonderful in ALL respects including value for money -- we did go off-season so it was not regular price. Our second stay there and top quality with friendly and knowledgeable people. Beautiful location. Cannot recommend highly enough!

Lovely experience in this eternal classic. Service was great, sublime views, comfortable rooms and above all, the taste of the classic hotels, the respect of tradition. 5* experience for a 4* star price. Will be back soon.

The most perfectly located hotel in the city. The rooms have been fully renovated and the one we had had a fantastic view of the bay. The bar downstairs is a great location to have a drink while watching the activity on the boardwalk

The views from the room were spectacular. The concierge was lovely and so helpful. Having coffee in the bar area overlooking the bay in the morning was absolutely delightful. I would highly recommend this hotel.

My family and I did not stay at the hotel, but we did stop by for a drink at their bar, and we're glad we did. I recommend trying a Gin+Tonic with a gin called "Nordes". We were lucky to befriend one of the bartenders, Joseph, who couldn't have been more helpful. Not only was he able to tell us interesting background on the gin, but was also extremely helpful answering our questions about touring around...

A great hotel! Pricey but very elegant and with great staff. Enjoyed our stay there. Would recommend to others.

Very friendly and efficiently run hotel. Loved the breakfast. Great bar staff. Easy to navigate into town down the river.

pleasant - we didn't use the ground floor bar/restaurant facilities - some food shops nearby - a long walk to the beach riverside stroll or there are regular buses

Absolutely great value for money! We slept in the 7th floor with a great view. Room and bathroom were spacious. Very friendly staff.

Quite disappointed. The rooms didn't meet the standards of a 4-star hotel; the furniture seemed worn out with signs of neglect in the renovation. Additionally, I found two towels with stains and noticed some moisture-related insects in the bathroom (silverfish). Overall, for the price, there are several other options that offer better value and quality.

The hotel ambience and the personel service excellent. The room and bathroom clean and modern. The only that a little inconvenience is the bathtub to high and it doesn't has security handles. I guess I prefer shower. Also, noot to many bath towels wall holders. The breakfast very good including the coffee. The hotel is very centric. If I return to the area I will book there again.

The location of the hotel was a little far out, but the historic part of the city could be reached on foot in about 15 minutes

Lovely hotel with great views We stayed for two nights in thus hotel over a weekend and it was very nice. From greeting at reception to exploring the rooftop amenities the place is very lovely and comfortable. The location is good with a lift from the street level up to the hotel where because if its elevated level over the city allows for really great panoramic views. Only looses points for the fact...

Came here for one night in San Sebastian before heading to the ferry in Bilbao. This is a wonderful hotel. All seems so new and it's location is just perfect. The views from the roof and rooftop pool across the city were stunning. My boy LOVED the pool after a long drive! The hotel is easy walking distance to the beach and old city where it was buzzing but friendly and family friendly. We went from...

If you want a luxury hotel that is reasonably priced, a delicious breakfast, pool with a view and good service then stay at Hotel Catalonia. I write this review from the rooftop pool and can safely say it’s one of the most conveniently located hotels I’ve ever stayed in that has a touch of class. It is worth paying extra for the breakfast - the choice is excellent. The beds are so comfy we are struggling...

A nice hotel that's close to all the shops you could want in the new town and not so far from the old town either. A great location for us whilst we stayed. Rooms were great and the breakfast was good too. Some omissions like no dressing gowns, our double beds were twins pushed together, a lot of the rooms don't have a view, and the gym and pool were much smaller than in the photos online - you would...

We had an okay stay at the hotel - overall, it is a clean, modern hotel which feels fresh and well run. Our room was fine and comfy enough, but a bit odd. We requested a double room but were given a twin room with the beds pushed together - reception couldn't find us another room so we got a couple of drinks tokens as an apology. Big sparse walls with green wallpaper which would really could have...

Just love it ❤️ . They even got a elevator going all the way to the city... The rooms are huge , bathrooms are lovely . Parking house under the hotel . Just love this hotel ! And will go back next time I'm in the area ...

I recently stayed at this newly built hotel, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! Nestled next to a beautiful hill, the location offers stunning views while providing easy access to public transportation for exploring the city. The hotel combines elegance and comfort, with attentive staff who made our stay unforgettable. The amenities are fantastic, from the luxurious swimming pool to the...

Stayed in this lovely hotel for a week. Staff were so helpful and friendly. The breakfast every morning was excellent with lovely fresh fruit, pastries and cold meats etc. Bedroom was very comfortable and quiet. location was 3mns walk to bus stop and frequent buses into city centre made it a great location. Would highly recommend this hotel and will definitely come back here again

Staying at Sebastian Hotel Tres Reyes was an exceptional experience! The hotel is beautifully nestled in nature, providing a peaceful and serene atmosphere. The rooms are extremely comfortable, with every detail thoughtfully considered. The staff is incredibly welcoming and helpful. The breakfast each morning was fantastic, with a great variety and delicious options. Additionally, there is convenient...

Staff very very very professional and helpful. If I owned a hotel, I would hire every single one of them. They only want to make your stay perfect and can speak every language. Lovely touch of welcome sweets in the room, good amount of coffee pods, tea and water included. View of the forest very peaceful, bed comfortable and big. Free parking outside the hotel. And secure paid parking onsite. For...

Perfect location if you do not want to get with the car in the city center. On the other hand, there's not so much around. We really liked the decoration of the room and particularly the bathroom. The bed was very big and comfortable. We also enjoyed the food from the room service. The burrata and truffle salad was especially good

Cosy room, quiet, interior design focused on open space concept, interesting artwork, nice atmosphere. Potential for improvement in receiving guests at breakfast. If for some reason the number of room is not in the list the staff should check details with the receptionists instead of disturbing the guests over and over again. Other than that it was worth the experience.

There is a grocery nearby, great restaurants, cafes and bars as well (see my reviews). It is really convenient to go to La Concha beach (walk 10 min) and old town (bus 15 min - €1.85 apple pay, walk 30 min). Coin laundry is 12min walking distance - save money after the sea swimming. Room is very spacious and clean including the lobby. The reason why I didn’t give five star is that even though they...

Beautiful lobby area, very attentive and helpful staff, remember your name and very curtious. Rooms are modern spotless. Great shower. Huge tv. Very comfortable bed. Quiet at night good night sleep good WiFi and air con. Lovely little terrace bar and restaurant. Handy for beach and local bars cafes shops etc bus no 5 right outside takes you to old town or 40 mins lovely sea front walk. Stop at the...

A modern hotel in the western part of the city close to the beach. A quieter area about 25 mins walk to the old town. Good beds, showers and all spotlessly clean.

Located away from the hustle and bustle of the old town, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat while still providing easy access to the city's attractions via bus with great restaurants nearby. The dog friendly room on the 4th floor was spacious and featured a big balcony with comfortable deck chairs and table/chairs, fridge, twin beds and sofa, providing a perfect spot for relaxation. Despite the lack...

Overall the hotel is really great - spacious and comfortable rooms, great location next to the beach and nearby very good restaurants. The only thing is the parking, which could be stressful as it turned out that you have to book separately and in advance the parking to the room. So if you want a parking spot for your stay you first need to call them an inquire about the parking and after you have...

I loved the hotel. It’s evident that they’ve recently renovated it, and everything looks new and tastefully decorated. The lobby is very attractive, and the receptionists provide excellent service. The rooms are comfortable, with good dimensions and a desk. The bathroom is also quite spacious and comfortable. The buffet breakfast seemed quite comprehensive to me. Perhaps the space is a bit tight for...

Great location near beach. About 800m to old town. Nice rooms. No exhaust fan in bathroom otherwise no other complaints.

Very expensive for what it was. The room was stifling .I asked please could someone look at the air con as I didn't think it was working. However I was told they didn't have air con in November as they classed it as winter .I explained how hot it was in there. They suggested opening the window. The noise was terrible. They did give me a fan. Which didn't really help. The layout of the bathroom was...

Hotel is well located, clean, efficient, good views, good staff, all was well but lacks amenities and open spaces

Modern hotel conveniently located about a block from the middle of the beach promenade. About a 10-15 minute walk from the train station.

The location is perfect. Right across the street from the beach. However this certainly adds to the price. We were traveling all over Spain and this was the most expensive place and certainly not the nicest. It was also under some renovations so the main entrance was not usable and we had to enter through a side area that was a construction zone. There was no parking anywhere to unload our luggage...

During our recent stay at Hotel Arima, we were thoroughly impressed by the professionalism and warmth of the staff, particularly the breakfast team. Their service was extraordinary, with some staff members speaking impeccable French, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The room was comfortable, offering a restful ambiance with a calming view of the terrace and surrounding greenery. The...

Service and rooms were great. Location is just outside the city center and while there is a bus, we drove to and from and it took ~15mins. We preferred this location because it was quiet. Our room rate included breakfast which had a lot. We also took advantage of the spa which we enjoyed, though it would have been nice if pool access was free. If you are not booking a spa treatment, just know it’s...

I had an exceptional stay at this hotel! The rooms were fantastic—clean, comfortable, and beautifully designed. What truly stood out was the staff. Both the reception and restaurant teams went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and valued throughout my stay. The hospitality was top-notch, and their warm, friendly demeanor made all the difference.

Perfect for a comfy getaway. Loved it all and food is excellent especially in the cafe. They have an incredible tortilla de patata and the staff is super friendly. Went for dinner too and the food was outstanding (the leeks were a dream!). Rooms were big and very comfortable and they even leave you a sweet treat when you arrive. 🥹 But Hotel guests still get charged 30€ per person for 90 minutes in...

Wonderful hotel with fabulous and friendly staff. The rooms are very nice, and have everything you need. I cannot recommend the hotel restaurant enough - we had some of the yummiest mussels there, and all of the staff were so helpful and friendly. Pretty good breakfast too - make sure to try the eggs. It is a little outside of the city but there is a bus stop with regular busses or you can walk through...

This is a fantastic hotel. A little out of the city but the bus was really easy. The forest next door was amazing for a run and a walk. We loved the space, smart design and welcome glass of wine!

Amazing experience from the moment we arrived, having champagne outside on the deck to the amazing lunch, service was very attentive and not overly done. We got a look and tour of the kitchen and met the chef himself. Cocktails later that evening made the day complete.

Fenomenal experience from beginning to end. The quality and presentation of food outstanding. The explanations and overall service great. Enjoyed discovering some new wines thanks to the sommelier. Worth every star!

The newly renovated hotel and restaurant are absolutely stunning. However, the lack of atmosphere was noticeable, as the restaurant was less than a third full for lunch, even at the end of July. We dined here eight years ago and were blown away by the food. While the dishes are still good, they didn’t quite deliver the WOW factor expected at this price point. It’s still worth a visit, but with so...

One of a kind experiences ever, really mind blowing menu. Really feels like something straight out of a movie. The ambience gives this mysterious energy which makes the experience even more daunting. Amazing venue as well, everything is truly remarkable.

Sweet old hotel up on the hill overlooking the ocean. Though it was raining from time to time (which is rather normal), we could spent quite a bit outside and enjoy the stunning view of the ocean and the nearby mountains. They have a rather large playground for kids and all in all a very nice experience.

Beautiful views & super peaceful place but it is not acceptable the poor WiFi they have, specially taking in consideration the lack of good cell phone signal there.

A wonderful, secluded hotel with amazing views over San Sebastian (weather permitting). Reasonable price, comfortable beds, clean rooms, €11 for breakfast. I would recommend this hotel.

The check in was great and seamless, the person at the front desk spoke excellent English. The restaurant is not worth the four-star rating. The dishes were pizza, hamburgers, chicken wings etc. Without any actually "great" food options. We travelled down the mountain to eat in the city. The beds were great and there was even a extra pillow in the closet. The room also had a geat shower with lots...

It shouldn’t be a 4-start hotel. Maybe it was in the past, but the service is very poor and hotel is outdated. For dining-in you need to book early in the day and the waiter isn’t any happy to serve you in a Monday night. We’ve orders a tea and a coffee and we there many tables booked as reserved, even thought there only 2 people in a table and other 3 in another. We order coffee and set down in a...

+ The check in went fast and the staff was friendly. The hotel is beautiful and has a nice restaurant for breakfast, lunch and diner with a beautiful view. We felt welcomed and they were also friendly to our dog! The drive to San Sebastian is around 15/20 minutes so if you have a car the hotel is good located. The pool is nice. - In the evening we went to the bar/restaurant for a drink and there was...

How did this hotel get 4 stars ? Honestly everything rests on the view which is absolutely beautiful. The reception is not worth 4 stars. The room is not very clean and pretty ugly, very simple, only 2 bottles of water and not even toothpaste. After 10pm, it is impossible to join reception, no one answers. We paid for a room with sea view and had to choose between separate beds and a sea view or a...

The reception staff is really nice and professionnal, big rooms that are quite nice even though they're a little bit old. The view is incredible. Just don't go to the hotel bar, it was a disaster. Nice breakfast

We booked a privilege room, so the views were really impressive. The bed was a bit tough, the room was nice and clean. The way to the hotel is very dark as there is no street lights at all. The staff is friendly. In general, very nice experience.

The rooms and views are amazing, however if you want to explore San Sebastian it can be a way out being at the top of a hill. A funicular runs up and down the hill, which provides an excellent service there is quite a wait though at busy times as people visit the funfair situated directly below the hotel. The service at the hotel can be a problem as there is simply not enough staff, which creates...

Exceptional views and getting fireworks was a plus. The hotel needs a lot more staff. The food is very basic and needs improvements, we arrived early afternoon and told no we couldn’t go the the main restaurant despite having 10 mins to order….. we were not told we could have gone to the roof for a basic snack at the pool after a 6 hour drive!! Annoying. It’s a real shame because this could be a truly...

Location: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Service: 🌟🌟🌟 Room and facilities: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 The view here really amazing and relaxing. If you aim to stay in San Sebastián for a short trip. Here could be a nice choice since you could enjoy the view of the beach from the top of the mountain. There is also cable car 🚠 for you to go to the beach and take a walk to the old town area to enjoy some tapas and look around. However, the receptionist...

Solid spot, fairly clean room, decent bathroom. Clean and "gets the job done". Location is probably the biggest drawback on the surface if you are a tourist and want to spend most of your time in the Old Town, but this is easily remedied by using the bus, which has a stop right out front. The neighborhood it resides in is actually full of more budget travelers and locals, so exploring this part of...

Very convenient location - few mins walk to multiple bus stops and basically accessible to anywhere in san sebastian. Direct bus to Mount Igueldo funicular, too which is the best spot to see the whole of beautiful san sebastian. Very very friendly and helpful receptionist. A little noise from the road as the hotel is facing the main road but it is fine for me. Slept like a baby. Would definitely...

Unfortunately my wife was involved in an accident resulting in her breaking her leg. We had the best room in the house on the 7th floor (704). As it is a difficult break, my wife is in plaster from hip to ankle making access to the lift and our room incredibly difficult. We arrived back from the hospital at 4.55 am by ambulance and if it wasn't for the assistance of the night time receptionist (Manuel...

Laura at the front desk is an absolute sweetheart and was so helpful. She gave me great ideas to do on my first trip to San Sebastián and had an outstanding attitude. Always met with a smile.

Lovely staff! Pedro we dealt with throughout our stay was super polite and helpful and very warm and welcoming. Very much "can do" attitude and made the stay enjoyable.

Excellent Hotel, like location, staff and overall good experience. Oh and good value. I am in the Sercotel Rewards Club (Recommend)

Great family run hotel. Staff were wonderful and hard working, had no stress at all. The room was spotless and a lovely big, comfy bed. The breakfast is 14 euros and worth it, we had it once and went into to local cafes on other occasions to sample cafe life. The hill- 10 minutes to the nearby shops/ cafes and there are 2 bus routes on it. Not a stress, get to the hotel early and you will get a parking...

Very friendly staff and the hotel is located in a very beautiful area! The views from the rooms were unbelievable! Quiet and nice. Ok walking distance into town and beach.

The hotel is in a great location, walking distance to the beach, cafes and shops. The room is clean and modern with a spacious rain shower. There's free parking available, and also charging spots for EVs. The biggest plus for us was that it's pet friendly (for an additional reasonable fee), the pet supplement includes a dog bed and a bowl :) There's a fridge in the room, which was great as we could...

Beautiful rooms + view, everything was very clean, beds are great and the breakfast buffet was amazing. The free parking is perfect if you are on a stopover like me. The city center is a gorgeous 15min walk by the beach away and the prices for all of this are a great value. 10/10 would recommend!

The best 3* hotel I’ve stayed in, should be 4* in my opinion. The room was huge, big comfortable bed and very clean and modern. They welcomed our two dogs with some treats. They also have a dedicated dog area outside which I’ve not seen in a hotel before - so nice to have! The staff are very friendly and in a good location. Plenty of parking too which is good. Will definitely return!

Visited in August 2022. The room was OK for 3 people and a dog. The staff were so kind and helpful. He tried to accommodate us by speaking all the languages he could. French, English and, of course; Spanish. It had a swimming pool but we didn't use it because we arrived at night but we could walk around it. The night view was pretty. It had a small area for dogs which was cute and rare in hotels

Beautifully appointed hotel, superb and friendly staff, wonderful hospitality from Raquel, my room was spotless and well designed with a great selection of stock in the minibar. Fantastic rate too

Nice hotel, good location to explore San Sebastián. The staff at reception were excellent and really friendly, credit to them. The hotel has really nice spa facilities and a decent equipped gym. It’s a reasonable price also. I would definiltey stay here again.

The hotel looks pretty new and clean. Rooms are good size and nice layout. Check-in took a while with 3 guests before me. The location is not great.

Hotel is clean and simple. A bit further than I expected from the old town 20-25 min non stop walk, not much in immediate surroundings, some cafes about 7-10 min walk . Garage was conveniently located . Pool is nice but not heated, so unless it’s summer and hot it’s too cold to swim in September . Sauna area was decent , Turkish bath room was broken and hot tub barely warm . Staff was pleasant and...

The facilities are very nice and most staff are extremely helpful. Rooms are well kept. Some are on the smaller size with limited room for the suitcase heavy traveller but we managed with one suitcase, carry-on and two nap sacks The breakfast was great and worth adding to your stay. The rooftop is very nice but the pool is not for swimming and is unheated. If you are looking for a pool to get your...

Super friendly staff, the hotel is modern and well located. 15min walk from the main parts of San Sébastien, beach and tapas district ! Small but really nice rooftop pool to relax. Also the Spa experience was really good. If you’re lucky to get a parking spot at the hotel it’s even better since it will be nice and stored in the private garage.

Stayed here in May 2019. The hotel was beautiful. Restaurant excellent & staff extremely helpful and pleasant. Highly recommend.

A lovely preserved hotel overlooking the spectacular La Concha. It is one of only a couple of hotels which are actually overlooking the beach ? We had a great few days here. We had two rooms. Room 52 which had windows overlooking the beach, room 62 which had a narrow balcony

Nice old hotel perfectly located. When booking ask for a room with sea view because the street side could be noisy.

Perfect location on La Concha. Clean and accommodating with nice bedding. The restaurant was fantastic for all meals. And the room rate was very fair.

Great location, very helpful staff, very nice people, great restaurant, room are nice and comfy, I guess in Europe boutique hotel like this rooms are small, I'm happy with comfy bed, but spacious wise is bit tiny, the old elevator is nice but in the morning when everyone getting out it was bit noisy. But only few days stay that was ok. I definitely will return, is just the best location, right in...

Great accommodation. Room had a balcony and plenty of space. The hotel is right by the beach. Although the elevator and stairs in the hotel were dated, the hotel was nice.
