Hotels in San Sebastian

The room has a slightly unusual shape, but it wasn’t an issue at all for a solo traveler. The bathroom was clean and well maintained. The location is very convenient, especially for hopping between nearby tapas bars.

The location of this hotel is unbeatable if you’re in San Sebastián to explore the culinary delights of the old town. We opted for a sea view room and it was worth every penny. Waking up to the waves crashing against the rocks, right outside our window was such a special experience. The only downside, and this did have quite a negative impact on our stay, was that the bed was so hard! I’ve stayed...

Great location. Very nice and helpful staff. Nice room with plenty of hot water. Comfy beds. Would stay again but not in the same room. Such a shame about the noise from the working garage below our room (102) early morning until late evening.

The room was spotless, and the staff was a great pleasure to deal with. This hotel is a real surprise. Its humble aspect is contradicted by superb attentiveness and dramatic location.

Great location across from the sea and walkway. In Old Town with all the history, shops, restaurants, bars and lots of Pintxos! Staff was very nice and arranged a taxi for us for an early morning ride to the train station. Room was great with a wonderfuk shower and fluffy towels!

What a gorgeous property, Beautiful furnishing, clean, friendly with wonderfull views of the ocean Great access to a great beach

Clean big room with sea view & courteous reception staff

The view was stunning and is hotel is close to main attractions.

Quaint, old fashioned little hotel, great location on a quuer street across from beach & near funicolure. But noisy inside, walls are paper thin, plumbing was loud & rattling as was fridge in my room & curtains were covered in mould.

Location and staff were very good. They lack food, meals, vending machines options. The breakfast offered was not the best.

This is a true gem ! its a very nice property located across the street from the beach and a beautiful promenade. 20 min walk to the old town or 9 Euro by taxi ( I am sure there is a bus). Very nice and spacious room and bathroom. Staff is fantastic ( both friendly and knowledgably) Great dining options around the corner. I hope to come back

this hotel is very nice. They don't guarantee parking, but we were able to park in the driveway and leave the key with the staff, and they managed to move cars around and fit everyone in, which was great. We had a little balcony, and could see the view, which I recommend requesting. As much as I love this hotel, I would have preferred to be closer to the old town where all the better dining options...

Other than a lack of parking in the old city, this place was fantastic. Great lication, well appointed and comfortable rooms.

This is my 3rd visit to Donostia so I have some experience with hotels, apts and pensions in the Old Town. I chose Ur-Alde for its convenient location, great value for price and excellent support before our arrival. Aitor and Mikel continued to provide 5-star support during our stay. Thank you for your patience and stamina! I needed a lot of help, when slow-travelling with my elderly mother. Mom is...

We stayed in the Amsterdam room which is beautifully decorated and furnished. We stayed 3 nights and were very comfortable in this spacious room. The location is cental to the sights and we were able to walk everywhere. We will stay here again and strongly recommend it.

You get a room smack bang in the centre of the old town which is great, however it seems very much set up for couples so if you're travelling with a mate like I was, you may consider somewhere else. Overall though it was very convenient with totally autonomous entry and egress. Desk is supervised between 0900-1500

Very nice boutique hotel - four nice rooms excellently located in the old town. The rooms are nicely equipt. Very good service from the hotel manager. Though the price is at bit on the high side compared to what you get. Therefor i have only given 4 star rating

This place is a hidden gem! Right in the middle of Old Town….surrounded by restaurants and bars…super comfortable bed, wonderful shower, and the reception staff were always ready to help. My husband and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again….

I arrived late for my meeting downtown.... The guy at reception told me to go and he would arrange my room for my return. I arrived back late at night and everything was ready... The next morning I met a third person at the reception and how nice and welcoming they all were... Rooms are tidy and comfy... 10 minutes walk from downtown. I'll be back and big thanks to everyone working at reception. Best...

Free onsite parking. A bit of a hike to the town center but manageable

Basic, clean, simple and good location. A little frustrating that we could not control the room temperature in the room and when I asked at check out they said ohhh...we control it here & the ceiling fan in simply decorative. Helpful information to post in the room or communicate at check-in. Room was clean & modest. Great location and tons of parking.

Friendly adaptable staff ensured a very pleasant stay. We also appreciated the free parking available to guests.

We originally booked Monte Ulia for 2 nights, but we enjoyed our stay so much that we extended it for an extra night! The hotel is in a great location—about a 20–25 minute walk to the Gros area of San Sebastián, and if you want to go further into town, there are several buses that get you there in just 10–15 minutes. A big highlight of our stay was the service. Jon, one of the receptionists (and the...

Wonderful weekend for two with two dogs. The staff was very friendly. The room was spacious, comfortable, and had everything you needed (fridge and slippers). Large terrace. This was our second stay, and we'll be back.

Good location. Basic motel on the train line. There was no aircon and we had to sleep with the windows open so it was noisy. The staff where very helpful

I just went there for a coffee while i was waiting for the train to arrive. Nice coffee in a cafe with some charm, old style but it has everything that is expected to have. Clean toilets.

Great service, kind and informative, attached restaurant, and right next to Renfre train and bus station. Will stay here again.

Good location, clean room, friendly staff and good price (for 2 people for 5 nights) - recommended if are staying in San Sebastian

very good prices despite being part of a hotel next to the station. decent food but poor service during rush hour

small rooms, weird double-beds, but great

Friendly staff, outside season they might get you in early if possible. Also, being just a few meters away from the beach is priceless. Don't skip on waking up super early to see sunrise on the beach. Breakfast is good by could improve a little bit, but isn't hotel's main service, so is understandable. I'd recommend it for someone that wants to be centric but not in the main busy area

Wifi was slow and inconsistent.

Superb location Great location. Really central and just across the road from the beach. My room was probably one of the least expensive but was quite dark with no view and little outside light. Reception guys were both really friendly. Not really a hotel with facilities if that’s what you’re looking for but great as a base.

Overpriced for standard and size of room Great location, friendly helpful staff & very clean.BUT, room was TINY, no bin in bedroom, no extractor in bathroom which was so small I could reach both walls with my outstretched hands.No lobby downstairs. Very expensive for this kind of accommodation

Two days prior to arrival a 260 Euro charge was applied for this booking to my credit card. This was an equivalent of approximately $400(Cdn). It is for a single room with a double bed, that was booked about 2 months earlier. I was in Pamplona prior, with a schedule change and had contemplated coming to San Sebastián a day earlier. Via the ******* App I could have secured tha same single room for ...

Very nice hotel at city center, very close to la viña, reception is not available in thr afternoon, but all well establislhed, there is also a cofffee machine at entrance, rooms are enough spacious, bath clean

Quiet, clean and well located, And very helpful staff. Just make sure you check in online in advance if arriving out of hours as it won't be staffed. But it's a great place to stay, we'll be back

Ideal place for stay, close to many restaurants and also beach. I will definitely recommend it 👌

Modern,high tech & economical hotel with cozy,well maintained rooms. Relatively quiet, friendly help & service at hand. Free coffee and cakes (not gluten free) as well as wifi. Well located within level walking distance of Gloss neighborhood pincho bars, Old Town and even Funicular. Easy to park nearby but Plaza de Cataluña public parking is very expensive so best to look elsewhere. On balance it makes...

The hotel is clean, has great service, and feels quite upscale for the price. My wife and son enjoyed out stay immensely and we would have loved to stay longer. The staff was courteous and professional. We loved the coffee bar in the lobby and the cleaning staff is very accommodating. If you will arrive late, ensure that you contact management in advance during open hours. Thus said, the process to...

Nice and clean. Rooms are very small (depending on the category). Location is quite central and only 10 minutes walk from the central bus station. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

It's a reasonably priced place to stay. The location isn't bad either. The staff are very nice. I was happy to see a towel warmer. The photo is of the beach where I ran that morning.

All amazing, the staff, the room. Great location. All you that you need for a great days in San Sebastián, in this place you can find on it.

Overall really good , could have wished for a better bed but that’s about it! Great location

Great hotel in a great location. Staff were lovely.. only problem was as we were on the ground floor.. sleep interrupted by people arriving late at night as not great sound proofing. Great to have on tap coffeee and nice seating area at the front unfortunately cleaner set off alarm in morning which also effected sleep.. otherwise good place to stay for the price.

It was a very cozy, small hotel. Please note that the front desk is only open from 9am to 9pm. Breakfast is not included, but it's not a problem as you can help yourself to light bread, fruit, coffee, etc. The room is in an old building, so the floors are a bit wavy, but it was clean, lovely and lovely with a cute interior. The location is also convenient, just over a 10-minute walk from the old town...

Good place to stay, very good service, 100% recommended place

Super clean accommodation, excellent location with great views. Staff not that accessible but worth the inconvenience

Location was beautiful. Rooms modern and comfortable. Rustic. Bus stop directly in front of hotel so transport not an issue.

Friendly staff. Nice and clean rooms. Breakfast with very good food and drink. Recommended.

All great except for the thin walls, the other visitors noise in the morning woke me up.

Pros: Spacious and clean room with a balcony. Onsite parking. Quiet neighborhood. Cons: Far away from old town, restaurants and bars. No fridge or coffee making facilities in the room. Good to know: Reception closes at 9 pm. There is a sister hotel across the street that has 24/H reception. To get to old town: The bus #16 picks up in front of the hotel and takes about 30 min to get to old town. It...

Beautiful place with the most amazing view in our room and the Villa Favorita team made us feel very welcome.

Breakfast service was below standard. Ignorant young staff, waited for 10 min to get a coffee. Är or even a cutlery. There was just a few other guest. They couldnt refill the buffet, wouldnt even look at us.

Awesome beachfront room and amazing, helpful staff. Very well located and an easy walk to everything.

Having breakfast from the bar with the view of the beach is quite the experience. Outdoor area of the bar provides better view of the beach and people watching. The hotel is a short distance from the The Old Town area and the San Martin Market.

No hotel compared on our trip from Paris to Madrid. The staff was so attentive without ever bothering us. Every inch of the hotel is gorgeous. The views and location are unmatched. Highly recommend

It was the most beautiful view and location! The staff was amazing! The hotel was so beautiful we never wanted to leave!

It lacks the services and amenities one would expect from a boutique hotel. The receptionist was rude and unhelpful, and even made hostile comments towards us. When paying for a boutique hotel, one expects better service, as well as better toiletries and better room maintenance. On the positive side: The cleanliness was excellent, the beds are comfortable, and it's very well located.

We stayed at this hotel, which is only about 10 minutes from the old town. The location is excellent, allowing you to enjoy both the new and old towns. The rooms were spacious, and the hotel staff greeted and saw us off in our language. The price wasn't high, and I would definitely like to stay here again!

The front desk was kind and nice

Although it's a little far from the old town, there are cafes and the beach nearby that seem to be popular with locals. It's clean. There's a bar downstairs, but the room is quiet. Two staff members, one male and one female, helped us. They were very friendly, kind, and wonderful. I stayed here with three friends sightseeing. There was a double bed and a sofa bed. The room was clean and spacious enough...

It's very nice, good location, and good service.

Great little hotel with perfect location

Excellent hotel - comfortable and lovely staff. Parking available and 25-30min walk to the old town. Very good staff that provided really helpful recommendations.

The hotel is very nice and rooms are modern. The only issue is the quality of the staff services. We were not treated nice at breakfast nor by the hotel receptionist.

Great stay for San Sebastian - friendly service, provided really good recommendations and within walking distance to the sights in the city, but quiet enough not to be disturbed by the crowds. Safe car parking and was happy to accommodate cars with low clearance at request which was much appreciated

We had a good stay here. The hotel is very clean and the room was very large and well equipped. The bed was among the best I have ever slept in. For those on a road trip - car park is good. Entrance has a slightly high curb that needs careful approach in any low car, but was OK in our 911. Even as the world's fussiest parker I found a spot that meant I could sleep at night. Considering the price...

Lovely staff, warm, helpful and welcoming. Excellent location in the Gros neighborhood of San Sebastian some 10 min from the beach. Large, very clean, well appointed rooms. Excellent restaurant. Free parking on the hotel premises. A great choice for a quiet boutique hotel within walking distance of all the sites.

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!

I contacted Luis via his website to let him know we'd be late checking in and right away, he responded. Within minutes, we were messaging each other on WhatsApp. Luis sent me loads of useful information and helped us get settled. The Pension Joakina is lovely and the whole place is immaculate. I could hear the staff cleaning every morning. The location was brilliant and we were able to walk to all...

EDIT: Changed my review to 3 stars since I am getting my refund AND I got an apology! (But only after saying he should 😅) He should have admitted the mistake and apologized instead of blaming banks! People make mistakes! But having integrity and apologizing goes a long way 👍🏼 EDIT: Booking #6599077916. Deposit was 81.73. Booking cancelled on December 11. My deposit has never been returned. Today...

easy communication, great welcome, central hotel, and a very nice balcony

Where do I start?! FAB location! We had the “double room with balcony” next to the kitchen. The balcony has 2 chairs. The room has “individual” AC units & 2 personal small umbrellas. We were able to check in at 12:30great bathroom! Everything is spotlessly clean! This is what is in the kitchen/common rm: microwave, sink, cups, glasses, silverware, bowls, coffee, sugar, milk, iron & board, sunscreen...

Highly recommend!! We stayed 4 nights, were met by Luis at the Pension at 9 pm when our train arrived, Luis was very helpful with information before our stay and upon check in. The room is really spacious (blue room) and clean. Great little balcony. The shared kitchen is great, didn't mind at all you wouldn't often bump into people. Very secure with 3 keys needed to get into your room. They provide...

Perfect location and excellent personal service. They also arranged very convenient parking for us, even though the film festival was on! Clean, comfortable and with a nice breakfast room with free coffee & tea, a toaster and shared refrigerator. Our room had a nice little balcony. They provided excellent pintxos bar recommendations! We would definitely stay here again on our return to San Sebasti...

I had a small room, but it was perfect for one person. The apartment is very comfortable, with plenty of toiletries and kitchen supplies available for guests to use. The host also recommended places to visit in the city. She prepared breakfast in the morning, and it was incredibly delicious. The hostess is very hospitable and kind; this really made the whole trip special, for which I’d like to thank...

The location is very convent and the landlord is really nice!!! A highly recommended place for short stay!

I really enjoyed the location and the kindness of the owner. The breakfast was delicious and I enjoyed talking with other travelers staying at the same inn. The heating doesn't work very well, so it's often cold, and the shared bathrooms might not be suitable for those who are sensitive.

Anna really cares about her guests, with advice on what to visit, where to get a hair cut and washing one’s travel clothes. The place is clean and well located for a visit to San Sebastian.

Anne hostess lovely couldn't do enough for us. Plenty food for breakfast.Room quite small but comfy

Nice staff, Anne is so kind. Delicious breakfast. Bed could be a litlle bit more comfortable, but nothing bad at all... I would recomend, cause location is great.

Perfect 2 day stay in the fabulous city of San Sebastian. The very comfortable room was a good size with a balcony facing the street. Toiletries and a fridge were available. Theresa, the owner cold not have been more helpful. Her assistant, Natalia was very courteous and equally professional. For me the stay was very homely and quiet. The location is perfect as it backs the old town, very convenient...

Perfect location right on the edge of the old town. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms are a little tired but still comfortable.

Great location , walking distance to old town , new town and beach . Service from Teresa was great . No kettle so she brought us one straight away then came back with tea bags . The rooms were immaculate , rooms cleaned daily with fresh towels . Couldn’t fault the cleanliness or the proprietor Teresa . Close to a taxi rank too. Would stay there again as loved the old building and the quirky old lift...

Extremely centrally located Pension at the edge of the old town and a short walk to the beach. Very warm and welcoming staff, however due to it being a Pension, it can be hard to get prompt service. The rooms were adequate and very clean.

This was our first time in San Sebastian and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Perfectly situated near the old town in a building full of Spanish character... Lovely and everything we wanted. Friendly and charming staff made this a joy to stay. San Sebastian's reputation for food is well deserved and our hosts recommendations for places to eat were spot on.

Great location in the centre of the city, quite noisy however.

Very nice and welcoming. Helpful.

Super welcoming and helpful! The room was clean and quiet. The kitchen was equipped for breakfast, and you could leave your belongings at check-out. I highly recommend it! 🙃

What a wonderful surprise. It exceeded all expectations. We were uncertain about staying in a “shared bathroom” situation but in this case there were more than enough bathrooms to take care of the guests. Very quiet. Well-equipped kitchen and common area. Loved the owners who are there every day. Super helpful suggestions upon check-in. They even helped me fill out a lost item request with the bus...

Our stay was extremely comfortable. A great room, with a nice terrace/balcony. We felt welcome from the moment we checked-in, where the owner and his wife immediately gave us information about San-Sebastian. Unfortunately we made a mistake of booking 3 nights, instead of 4. The owner immediately started calling other guest houses around town and in 5 minutes she organised us a stay, with discount,...

Great find Great place near to the beach and lots of great food. Really welcoming people and use of kitchen for morning coffee etc. room was small but very comfortable and extremely well soundproofed from the busy street.

Good place to stay. The host was very helpful and gave us good local knowledge. The room and shared kitchen area were very user friendly and clean.

Wonderful arrangements. Just need to get regular cleaning of the room. Rest, location, facilities and everything is awesome.

Stayed here in October 2023 for 2 nights. In a nutshell, the accommodation was exactly as expected, clean, secure and very well located just 10-15 minutes walk from Central / bus + train stations / Old Town. We stayed in room 101 (double room with balcony). Decent sized room, bathroom + some wardrobe space. Check in is easy and straightforward. I would say it is very good relative value and would...

Excellent location, receptionist was super helpful, the suite was the perfect size for 2 friends travelling together. Clean and it had everything we needed. Perfect stay for a perfect city break

Very good pension, great location walking distance from the center, bus station, beaches (10'each). Clean, nice and friendly personnel. Great rooms.

Great value and location- our room very clean, modern and spacious! Staff were friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! PS Lollies were yummy

Small and quiet hotel with friendly staff. Good room with modern bathroom and airconditioning. Room is not the biggest but big enough. Walking distance to the center. Price is OK for San Sebastian.

Great location for a weekend trip but very expensive for what you get.

Good location for shops & restaurants Great location. Beds not comfortable

Located near the Cathedral in the Old Town, close to La Playa Concha. Very walkable. Clean, comfortable, no frills accommodations. Quiet neighborhood with cafés and restaurants within easy walking distance.

The Guesthouse was OK. The room clean and the bed was good. But I had an incident with the check in process. I received an email with three codes. One to open the front door, one to open the door of the guest house and another for my room. The problem was that the door to the guest house would not open. There was a phone number to call so I did. The person answering the phone, instead of recognizing...

Clean and comfortable stay in a great location The place was tidy and well-kept, with a reliable air conditioner that kept the room comfortable. The location is very convenient—within walking distance to all the main attractions and activities. The bathroom was quite small, but it was clean and functional. Just a heads-up: the check-in process involves a digital system, which might be a bit tricky...

The property was super cute and super easy to access, walking distance from everything. Stayed 2 nights and there was no one there overnight but staff was present during the early day to change towels, clean the room and more. The cleanliness was decent not a 10/10 but definitely not filthy, just clean. There is a small common area as well for a coffee and somewhere to relax other than your room. Overall...

Really central in old town. Staff excellent providing jug & iron.

The room was a perfect size to keep our luggage and chill in when we weren't exploring. There was a fridge which was useful and the bathroom was huge. They cleaned our towels everyday and made the bed :)

Very nice and friendly staff. Room very clean. Great location.

Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent location. Room was really nice. All you can ask for.

Lovely pension with wonderful location in the old town. Owners were so friendly and helpful when we turned up at their door due to an issue with where we were supposed to be staying. The room was clean and contemporary and I would look to book here in advance next time I come to San Sebastian

Almost perfect as a small budget old town hotel

Good location in old town. Across the street from a scool so the kids were a bit noisy. Great assistance from the host. Comfortabke bed

Quirky above luxury, but everything was clean and in order, staff were very accommodating and pleasant. Location is absolutely first rate for old town Donistia, it’s an old building so expect some compromises, but it all works and as I say location, location, location.

Best location and space! We loved our stay at Pension Ab Domini. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, the space was clean and ample and the location could not have been any more perfect. If we’re able to visit San Sebastian again, we will only look to stay here again.

Pensión Ab Domini offers a unique and charming experience right in the heart of the city, in the Old Town. The rooms are small but fragrant and clean. There’s an ultra-small balcony overlooking the bustling street, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee. The accommodation doesn’t have its own parking, so you’ll need to pay for street parking or use a nearby garage, which isn’t cheap. We were warmly...

The owner was so kind n the location was very convenient too.

Very close to the city center , able to walk everywhere
