Hotel Zenit San Sebastián
Lovely modern hotel. The location was on the edge of the city but everything was walkable. Nice bar with reasonable prices. Good breakfast selection. All in all a good choice.

Casual de las Olas San Sebastian Hotel by Casual Hoteles
Highly highly recommend - while unassuming from the outside, it has large and lovely rooms. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the bathroom large, with good amenities. It's a short walk from then centre and the beach (about 15-20 mins walk from La Concha). It's a fantastic place to stay.
