From the moment we got there to the time we left, the staff was friendly, kind, and helpful. We had a problem with our flight and late one night we needed to use a local phone. Alicia at the front desk was patient and understanding. She tried her best to help us and that was much appreciated. Thank you to the whole staff who truly made our stay comfortable.

Very upscale hotel in the heart of San Sebastián. Walking distance to every tourist spot: 5 minutes from La Concha Beach, 10 minutes to Old Town, 15 minutes to San Telmo Museum. You absolutely do not need a car/uber to reach anywhere. Stayed in the junior suite, nice and modern amenities. Best bathroom ever!!! Amazing shower. Everything in the room is top notch quality. Amazing and extremely friendly staff. There is no pool but it has a jacuzzi and steam room. The lack of pool is made up by the close access to the beach. Breakfast is good and there is an in-house restaurant. Surrounded by upscale shops and boutiques so shoppers will be delighted! Rooms are immaculate and housekeeping is impeccable

Beautiful hotel and the restaurant (Narru) was the some of the best service we've had in a restaurant and we eat out A LOT!....One small gripe, it tells you when you book that the mini-bar is free, but they only 'fill' it for you once and you get very little, so I'm sorry but that ain't a free mini-bar.
