10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for 4 days and 3 nights in September 2026 and thoroughly enjoyed! This is a lovely hotel well located near the beach and just a short walking distance to the old town. We had a premier room and it was very comfortable. Highly recommended!"

10/10 Excellent
"El Hotel estaba muy bonito y convenientemente ubicado si no quieres estar en el bullicio del centro antiguo. Tiene estacionamiento justo al lado del Hotel, con un costo extra pero que vale la pena pagarlo. El personal fue muy amable desde que llegamos y nos resolvieron un problema que tuvimos con una reservación muy diligentemente. Las habitaciones son amplias, modernas, muy bien acondicionadas y tenían varios extras que no esperábamos encontrar como ser: batas y pantuflas, spray para las almohadas, una botella de vino de bienvenida. Las camas y almohadas muy cómodas, definitivamente regresaremos aquí en nuestro próximo viaje a Donostia."
