Top Old Town San Sebastián Hotel Reviews

NH Collection San Sebastián Aránzazu

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience"

Barceló Costa Vasca

8/10 Good

"Lovely clean hotel and well maintained spaces. Bar snacks and breakfast were lovely and so was the pool area, would happily return. Some really nice quieter spaces in both the breakfast area and bar/cafe too. Robes in the bedrooms would have been a welcome addition and a quicker way of getting pool towels rather than having to queue behind guests checking in."

Hotel Maria Cristina, a Luxury Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"They say when you come to Euskadi you don't make friends, you make family. Well... at Maria Chirtina they make you feel at home. The attention to details, the service and the beautiful architecture and decor make it one of the finest hotels I've been in my life. Will come back for sure!"

Casa Nicolasa

8/10 Good

"Good clean spacious room in an ideal location on the edge of the old town and thus close to the many fabulous restaurants and bars and the beaches. The fridge in our room contained bottles of water and soft drinks on arrival which were replenished each day at no extra cost. Tea and coffee making facilities were provided in the reception area again at no additional cost. All in all a great place to stay"

Axel Hotel San Sebastián - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"This is an Axel hotel so I expected certain amenities and support. The room was great and spacious, as well as finely equipped. The pool area was good but lacked services like food and drinks. There was no rooftop scene to get into at night. Recommendations about bars and nightlife were severely lacking. There were a couple small touches at the pool area, like a small glass of champagne was served once while I was there. Could be an amazing property with a few enhancements being made. Location cannot be beat. The staff was very friendly and helpful!!! The property and area very safe day and night. There were a few restaurants right around the corner with a very local vibe."

Hotel de Londres y de Inglaterra

10/10 Excellent

"Iconic hotel on La Concha beach. Can't beat the location! Staff is amazing. Breakfast buffet so yummy, although not inexpensive. The restaurant and bar staff on point. Front desk team helpful. Concierge, while a lovely person, gave a few recommendations that were "duds." The hotel is "older" and we had some issues with our air conditioning maintenance responded changed filters, but it never got to a temperature that was cool enough for us; but it was also a heatwave, so I assume the system was stressed out. We had an ocean view which was amazing although the room itself was smaller than expected. Large bathroom! Overall, great stay!"
