Holiday Inn Express San Sebastian Errenteria By Ihg

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was amazing, very clean , the Rooms were great! Breakfast fantastic!! And I recommend to buy the parking at the hotel , because parking around it’s a nightmare. They have service 24 hours. I highly recommend"

Hotel Palacio Bellas Artes San Sebastián, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"This hotel was pretty much brand new at the time of our visit so looked spotless, stylish and beds were very comfortable. The rooms are quite large and spacious, with sliding partition doors between bathroom/'living space'/bedroom. Ours was a little dark with just one small window/french door to the balcony and the lighting was fashionably dim in places. Good storage though and shower is excellent. Location is ok - expect to walk 10-20 mins to get to Old Town or Gros but it is accessible by taxi which is a plus. One disappointment from me was that we booked this hotel as part of our wedding anniversary trip. Perhaps I am a little spoiled but we got wished a happy anniversary at check in and that was all - and then we had to pay €3 per bottle to drink the water in the room. Thankfully San Sebastián water is great so we were able to refill from the tap but it was a shame to not have the occasion marked and to have basic amenities be so expensive. We also had trouble getting some service from the front desk eg asking for some cutlery - they asked us to go upstairs to our room and phone room service in order to get it - and asking for late check out - which we weren't able to do until about 8am on day of check out which led us being unable to access the service. I somewhat expect better from this calibre of hotel and though staff are friendly I didn't feel like anyone wanted to make our stay feel special. Wouldn't necessarily stay again based on service and location."

8/10 Good

"The hotel was small with 10 rooms on one floor of what looked like an office block. The staff were helpful and the mini bar was well stocked with soft drinks. Tea and coffee was available at no cost in the corridor. The hotel was very well located very near to the main shops bars and restaurants and was also a short walk from the beach."

Pension Anne

10/10 Excellent

"The accommodation is excellent. Me and my husband had a private room with shared bathroom, but there are two bathrooms in the house so we basically have the bathroom to ourselves. Anne, the owner, was super nice and friendly, she made lovely breakfast! The toilet was super clean and same as the room. This place sits in the middle of the Old Town, so location is prime. We will definitely come back to Pension Anne again!"
