The staff were friendly the ponchos and restaurant superb in food but this was a modern hotel lacking something in character. It’s about 20 minutes from the beach which is either a boon or a demerit depending on your taste however its location close to the river meant that once we had opened the windows we were mosquito prey. Also some of the furniture was tired and required replacing particulate manual room safe which either ran out of battery power or the keys were malfunctioning and luckily looked me out before I could put anything in it

Clean and friendly and a little far from centre

We stayed two nights in San Sebastián and found this hotel a little too far from the historic centre where we spent most of of our time. The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly.

The description of the hotel was exactly as it was. The location was great, out of the city centre but so walkable which made it very quiet. The reception staff were always very helpful and friendly. It was great if you were coming on business and also if you were on holiday having a few days in Donostia, it seemed to tick all the right boxes.

The rooms were clean and comfortable, lovely breakfast. All the staff in the restaurant and bar, as well as the front desk very kind and thoughtful. Jose Luis and Alberto were both extremely kind, helpful and professional. Everybody was very patient with our group that included many teenage boy soccer players, parents and coaches. Few who speak Spanish. So thank you staff for your accommodation and patience!! All was fantastic.
