"We had an enjoyable stay at Hotel Luxe for 2 nights … lovely hotel located just outside San Sebastián (SS) on the cliff tops. Food from the Bistro was excellent (the main restaurant closes on a Sunday and Monday) …. Perfect for trips into SS using the local bus (number 16 -2 Euros fare) and a taxi or bus back as parking is very difficult in SS. Hotel ideal as a base for exploring the delights of SS and the Basque region… highly recommended"

Axel Hotel San Sebastián - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"It was nice but sometimes does not feel like a 4 star hotel. The coffee at the room is INSTANT COFEE!!! , the gym does not have proper air conditioning, the air conditioning at the room turns off automatically so in warm nights I had to get up and turn it on three times, the WIFI does not work properly and the water on the shower does not keep a constant temperature, I had to adjust it to keep it at the temperature I like."
