Top Old Town San Sebastián Hotel Reviews

Hotel ILUNION San Sebastian

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is 5 min walk from the beach and about 30 min walk from the old town. Walk to old town is very enjoyable along the beach. Where are no good restaurants or bars around the hotel, need to drive or walk to the old city. Room was a little small, but balcony was huge and overlooking city and bay. Very good breakfast, nice garage, which need to be reserved in advance as space is limited. Staff is very helpful."

Barceló Costa Vasca

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing time (two adults and a teenager). The hotel's location is perfect for lounging by the pool, walking to the beach, and walking into the main town every night to find bars and restaurants. The local neighbourhood is good for local facilities like bakeries and pharmacies. Access to the gym and indoor pool is misleading; this is an additional cost, but the facilities are excellent. Breakfast is superb if this is important to you. The room was kept spotless by the housekeeping staff. No soap in the toilets by the pools was really disappointing for a hotel of this standing. We'll be going back."
