My second stay in this perfectly located boutique hotel on the edge of the old town near the harbour. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with lots of tips and a welcome drink! Though I did not have a harbour view, the room had a good shower and comfortable bed - all you really need when there is lots to do outside. I would look to stay there again if back in town.

This is a perfect hotel in San Sebastián. Fabulous location in the old town with an excellent view of harbour. You can walk everywhere. Lots of pinchos and restaurants in the neighborhood. Lots of local shops too. Next to beach. Linens are great and staff friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay here again. That is, on our next visit to San Sebastián.

Room was very clean and well-appointed with a beautiful view of the sea. Nice bathroom as well. Excellent location at the end of the Concha, and right at the start of Old Town. We booked very last minute, so didn't receive the driving directions video - if you are driving, you do have to drive on the pedestrian roads, so reach out the hotel ahead of time for directions if you don't have them before you head over. There is (paid) parking at the hotel.

What a wonderful stay! This is the perfect hotel in the perfect location to explore San Sebastián. It is in the heart of old town looking over the water. Minutes to delicious food and a short walk from the centre of town. The staff are fabulous, the rooms are clean and comfortable. Couldn’t ask for a better stay!
