Super hotel on the river, fifteen minutes to centre and beaches. Hotel staff are friendly and professional, rooms are large and clean. This was a late booking as our planned accommodation had fallen through - this was a much better choice than the one we had planned to stay in!

Good hotel
Good hotel 25 minute walk to old town but easy walk. No coffee in room or English Channel on TV.
Really reasonable prices in the bar so on the whole not a bad property.

Great stay
Competent English speaking staff on front desk… all hours! Prices for food and drinks were comparable to local bars, something that never happens in England!
Big turnover of guests but never felt crowed.

We had a Terrace Room. We were surprised at how large the terrace was. My wife was recovering from a broken hip, so relaxing on the terrace with a bottle of wine was just what the doctor ordered.

We needed a parking space. Underground garage (21euro/night) has a direct elevator access to the hotel. The entrance to the garage was a bit narrow, but no problem with our mid size SUV. 15-20 minutes easy walking (flat) to the old city center. Room was very clean and enough space for two of us. Quiet even it faced to a busy road.
Good choice if you need a parking space.

The hotel was very nice but it was advertised as being close to the beach. It was actually a twenty minute walk. I expected it to be closer.

Clean and friendly and a little far from centre
We stayed two nights in San Sebastián and found this hotel a little too far from the historic centre where we spent most of of our time. The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly.

This hotel exceeded expectations! great location, parking and easy access to public transportation. The room was comfortable, modern style and equipped with quality linens and bathroom supplies.... best bed and pillows of our 2 week trip in Spain. Nice cafeteria for quick affordable breakfast. Close to Bilbao.
