Excellent hotel

Absolutely loved everything about this hotel - excellent location but quiet, super friendly and helpful staff, fabulous breakfast and spa. Only annoying thing was the spa is an additional charge and this needs to be clearer when booking (we loved using it but it soon added up for a family of four).

San Sebastián

We stayed 3 nights. Excellent location walked everywhere. Room was big and so was the bathroom. Definitely use the lift entrance so you are not walking up the hill. Only moan was that the room needed some maintenance. Shower head wouldn’t stay up unless you balanced it and the shower gel was empty and we had to ask for it to be refilled and the toilet roll holder was slanting downwards so it kept falling off. Not major problems I know, but for the price we payed for the room per night I expected housekeeping to do a better job as these should have been reported before we checked in and repaired. The bar staff were excellent.

I've stayed here before and liked it enough to stay again. But this time I excitedly brought my costume. Only to find guests need to pay for access to the indoor pool, EU19 for 2 hours and that the outdoor pool was closed. Tried to book the indoor pool for the 2nd night but it was closed, and then the 3rd but fully booked. Just really unimpressed and will definitely stay elsewhere on my next visit.
