I think this hotel is closer to a 4-star than a 3-star, I’m surprised as to why it’s a 3-star hotel after my stay. If you want a hotel close to old town, definitely recommend here. It’s within walking distance (about 10-15mins to all the pintxo bars and restaurants). Around 5 mins to the shopping district. Staff are all very friendly, especially all the receptionists. They gave great recommendations and also helped us to book tickets to the airport. They spoke very good English as well. Rooms and hotel itself were all very clean. There’s a lovely scent the moment you walk into the hotel lobby. Didn’t get a chance to dine in the restaurant but saw that there were people in there every night. Decoration inside the room was lovely - very modern and practical. The size was decent. There’s a lift and they have umbrellas for us to borrow on rainy days. Everything was in working order. Only down side is that there’s no kettle but we did use the coffee machine to make hot water (not the best but it will do!). The a/c was also great! When we come back to San seb, we will definitely stay here again 😊
This hotel is a little boutique gem. Located 2 minutes from the beach and 10 from the old city. We especially appreciated the free beach towels and big bathroom, but everything was great. Would stay again.
Stayed here for one weekend. We are extremely pleased with everything - spacious rooms, central location, friendly staff, highly recommended!
Hotel does not publish accurate pictures so best to assume something much worse than you might have expected. Rooms are a little dated and dinged up. This is comparable to a budget hotel except for the prices. I would suggest looking for another hotel as it would be hard to recommend this hotel at its price points. Also best to check your bedding as we noted hairs in our bed (likely not cleaned from the prior guest. The hotel is well located.
We loved this hotel. It was clean and the room was very comfortable. We had a great view of the cathedral and were able to walk to the beaches and the Old Town.
