Hotels in San Sebastian

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.

The service from the moment we stepped into the lobby was incredible. Our room was beautiful, spacious and so comfortable. The included breakfast was delicious and I loved that you could order additional items aside from the buffet. We loved our stay here and hope to be back some day!

We came to Hotel Maria Cristina for our honeymoon. Overall, the experience was fantastic. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. Also in a perfect location - right next to the old town, very walkable to all parts of the city. The staff was really friendly and went WAY above and beyond to make our stay special. I highly recommend this hotel if you are visiting San Sebastián!

I loved everything about this hotel. The rooms are beautiful and spacious, all the hotel has a very elegant aesthetic. It is located in the best part of San Sebastián, near the most popular area for shopping, eating and walking. I had breakfast and it was amazing.

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.

A dream come true, to eat in Akelarra.

The best hotel in the world

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!

Looking forward to staying here again. Very quiet area! Short walk to the beach, shops & restaurants. Staff was very helpful and pleasant to deal with.

San Sebastian itself is THE City. The Hotel is nice and offers A Garage to safe your Car. The Price is a little to high for my taste, and I could not try the spa and benefits of the Hotel. We were just there for one night on our way to Portugal. The beds were good and two free waters were offered.

Good hotel with a decent location. Just a word of warning - its on a hill so if you plan on walking in San sebastian with a full belly - you may need a taxi 😂

Great value for money - welcome drink on arrival for loyalty members (free registration on their website) and rooms have everything you need and location is about a 15 minute walk to the beach/main attractions. Not a huge breakfast menu, but good for eggs, yoghurt, orange juice. Very friendly staff tips the scales for this hotel!

Hotel, rooms and service are all excellent. Our room was clean, and quiet. The staff at the bar were nice, we enjoyed grabbing drinks from the bar and bringing them to the hotel lounge to a relaxed, comfortable space. We walked from the hotel to everywhere, old town, the beach, train station, etc... but the distance might be a long walk for some. The hotel is on a major bus route, so it would be...

Nice location quiet area but with the old town, both beaches bus station and everything you need within walking distance lovely staff at the reception and hardworking cleaners highly recommend you buy the breakfast with lots of food and the most pleasant and friendly staff rooms and gym are on the smaller side however the bathroom are spacious and modern. Would stay again

Great location, quiet, comfortable and contemporary room. A suggestion for a 5 star review - leave some tea bags and not just coffee in the rooms. Not everyone is an espresso coffee drinker. Lovely reading room. Restaurant lighting could be more subtle to enhance ambience.

Pleasant stay for a couple of nights. Nice quiet area away from crowds in the old town. Too far to walk (for us at least) to old town but there was a convenient taxi stand right around the corner from hotel and for just about 7 euros you're there! Bed was a bit hard but that's a matter of taste. Great bathroom with rain shower. Would stay again.

Fabulous rooms, welcoming atmosphere. Could have more options in the restaurant but still not too bad.

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...

Stayed here for 3 nights and this is arguably the best hotel at San Sebastian. Nearby to the old town with an amazing hospitality service. Love how the reception and room service goes all out to help us through out our stay

It's my first time to write a review and we would like to thank you all. Your room was super clean, modern, and comfortable. It was easy to go to all the lovely restaurants from this hotel. You all were very friendly and kind to us; we've felt like "omotenashi" (which means great hospitality in Japanese). Thanks to your lovely kindness, we could enjoy our entire trip in San Sebastián. We appreciate...

My experience at this hotel has been amazing. Truly 4 star hotel service and trilingual staff . The cleaners would leave a little note and would be so respectful with belongings and when to come in. Location was amazing , could walk anywhere and very safe stars . María ,the lady serving breakfast in the morning has truly made my experience at this hotel amazing.She would be so involved and happy to...

Great hotel with warm and friendly staff located within walking distance from the centre and main interest points. Nice proportioned rooms with great amenities and plush bathroom. Great bar too. Loved my stay.

The service at the hotel was 10 stars!!!! The staff was very nice and very professional! We had an air conditioning the best recommendations to our stay and would highly recommend the place!

Loved it. It is in a nice town has nice rooms and has a really nice restaurant. At check in they give you a map and mark all the best spots and activities. Ps free parking.

We recently stayed at Bidaia Boutique hotel and had a mixed experience. The hotel is clean, spacious, and very well located, even if a bit noisy for light sleepers. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, we encountered bed bugs in our room, which was quite distressing. The staff handled the situation excellently—professional, responsive, and empathetic. Despite this, we chose to...

Cute hotel with spacious rooms and Japanese style bidet toilet- yaaaas. Really enjoyed chilling on our terrace. Short walk to old town. Thanks to Telmo's (super friendly guy who checked us in) many delicious food recommendations, I think we gained 10lbs in 2 days. P.S. Google Maps walking directions from the bus station had us walk up 2 hills unnecessarily and had us end up on the wrong side of the...

The highlight of this hotel is its concierge services. The rooms are very nice with a modernistic feel that somehow exudes a more traditional ambiance and warmth. Very quiet and comfortable. The restaurant food is exceptional, even though I had no intention of eating there originally. Marco and Telmo, in particular, were amazing and they were extremely patient in helping us plan and maximize our...

I was celebrating an special occasion and Marco and the Bidaia Hotel team made it very special for us. We received an upgrade to a beautiful room with a big balcony and view to the mountain. The hotel is small and charming, very clean, modern and spacious rooms, very comfortable bed, nice shower, blackout electrical curtains, friendly staff and very close to downtown and all beaches. I was not able...

The stay was nice. I'd have to say that the Hotel could benefit from some additional services. It's hard to imagine that in this day and age, there isn't a single vending machine. I was unable to find coffee until the next morning, which is pretty upsetting for caffeine addicts such as myself. The facilities are all new, the rooms were pretty clean and the Parking was convenient.

I really enjoyed staying here.The staff are toooooo nice,great hospitality. Thanks so much for doing a great job.

We came in at three o clock in the night. They provided is with a room, diner, and free drinks. Very nice.

Nice hotel next to the riverfront of Donostia.. it was also at reasonable cost. Can walk through the riverside.

This is a nice hotel for the price, we had a good experience there. The staff are really friendly and they have good buffet for the price they charge. The location of the hotel is pretty good too. Its about a 15-20 min walk from the city. Hit - if you cross the bridge and take the cab its a lot cheeper. The beds in the hotel are not very comfortable and the hotel is small. They have very strong free...

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...

The hotel is in a wonderful location. This is a huge advantage, but getting into the old part of the city from here is not so easy (funicular only until 8 p.m.). Luckily the taxi is only 10 EUR back. There was never anyone at the reception, you had to keep calling loudly for someone from the back to finally come forward. Although they knew in advance that we were coming with the child, the 3rd bed...

Nice hotel, quite old looking from outside, but nicely renovated inside. Big, stylish lobby. Rooms are also comfortable and nice, maybe bathrooms would need some refreshment. Spectacular views. Great place to start your adventures in Basque Country. From here everything is close, but it’s recommended to have a car because hotel is located on a mountain and it can be challenging to go up and down every...

Fantastic views over the bay. Fun park below the hotel, great big pool area. Food was nice with good variety. Funicular from the beach up to hotel was easy and cheap

Very friendly staff! Room was good for 3 people and a dog. I didn't walk around but my parents did and they liked the area Parking area right next to the hotel. Thank God. (I have trauma from the last hotel I was in Spain)

Really good hotel. Close to a bus stop which takes you into town but easy to walk within 20/30 mins. Clean rooms which are modern and have all the facilities. Not the newest of hotels but feels well kept. High powered showers which is always a win!

The hotel is a little tired and needs some refurbishment. There is no bar or restaurant and the hotel is in a beautiful residential area but quite a distance from the nearest bar or restaurant. The staff (two receptionist) that I met were extremely helpful and courteous. Plenty soft parking spaces.

Rooms - a bit dated, but very well cleaned every day. Had a huge TV in the room. Receptionists polite and with decent knowledge of English. I've seen how helpful, polite and patient they were with some quite rude guests. Breakfast - ok, same every morning, with a very polite and always smiling waitress. Location is a bit far from the city, but that also means it is much more quiet during the night...

Very happy with this hotel. Clean, comfortable & affordable rooms. Great breakfast and a short walk to all that San Sebastian has to offer. Highly recommended.

Perfectly adequate for an overnight stay. My room was spotless but showed signs of wear and tear and the furniture was a bit aged. The bed was comfortable but a bit too soft for me. The bathroom was compact to put it mildly, but the water flow and temperature were excellent. Breakfast was really good, served in a large basement room with an eclectic mix of furniture and 'things' worth visiting. The...

Quiet location. Easily accessible for public transport. 10 minutes to centre and beach. Very friendly staff. Well appointed rooms.

Very high quality hotel, located a little ways away, but San Sebastian is the city is small and it is not critical. Breakfast is modest (but you're in San Sebastian, pintxos Breakfast in the centre of it that is necessary), the sound insulation is excellent.

The room as well as the services were very nice (the staff was super kind) but the atmosphere in the room was stuffy, the freeway beneath was busy and noisy (so we couldn't keep a window open) and thus we couldn't sleep!

Good hotel, nice breakfast and good service, a bit loud because of the traffic on the freeway...

lovely hotel. Awesome value. The lady at the front desk was so welcoming. Clean, convenient hotel. You also might not need to pay their parking as there is a very cheap public lot adjacent to the hotel.

Clean. Good size rooms. Plenty of parking options. Local bus stop close. Breakfast good be better.

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.

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 ...

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.

The staff at this hotel is very nice and very accommodating! We lost some luggage and the main concierge Leire deserves special note. She is an amazing person who spent a lot of time with us helping to deal with airlines and lost baggage etc. She has become a friend. Her recommendations for dinners and area knowledge of her city is the best you can get at any hotel in the world. 10 stars...

I had an amazing time at this hotel. The service was great. The concierge was helpful with exploring ideas, dinner reservations, and a very early morning taxi booking. My room along the water was beautiful and so comfortable.

Gorgeous hotel with old world charm right on beach. Everything was perfect, but I accidentally left 2 dresses in the closet. The housekeeper (I think Francis) turned them in to Nuria at front desk and they forwarded them to me in Madrid. What fabulous service. We cannot wait to return to this magical place…this time I’ll check closets before we leave.

Great hotel, friendly helpful staff. Great location for seafront and easy walk into old town.

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.

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!

Nice hotel but on the hotel pictures, we believe it is in the middle of the forest but even if there is a forest, the hotel is located in a business park with ugly buildings around, a bit disappointing. The hotel is not in great shape, the wooden floor in the swimming pool and outside in the balcony of the restaurant need to be polished. It’s a 4 start hotel, you would expect everything to be perfect...

The forest in backyard of the hotel is an amazing plus to this very nicely designed hotel. The only draw back is there is only one restaurant/cafe which limits the gastronomy options, especially that there are no restaurants walking distance from the hotel. It is a 15 min drive to town which is not bad .. the staff are very helpful and accommodating. The rooms are well equipped. Nice experience overall...

Arima Hotel and Spa is nestled on the mountainside, offering a tranquil and serene environment. The peaceful ambiance is perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. Surrounded by nature, the hotel provides a quiet retreat with stunning views of the surrounding landscape. One of the standout features of the Arima Hotel and Spa is its impeccable cleanliness. Every corner...

Absolutely stunning. Beautiful forest trails nearby. Extremely quiet spot, very quiet rooms. The pool was to die for.
