"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"

Top Donostia-San Sebastian Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Hotel Zenit Convento San Martín

10/10 Excellent

"Broha the valet and bell person welcomed us in a most professional and thorough manner. Top notch service and great location!"

Hotel ILUNION San Sebastian

10/10 Excellent

"El dormitorio es lindo muy moderno y el baño también. El restaurante 100 puntos, lo único que no me gustó fue el café del dormitorio que es café instantáneo horrible. Si les recomiendo que pongan una cafetera con cápsula eso ya sería vivir en el cielo me encantó el hotel."

LETOH LETOH San Sebastián

8/10 Good

"We were welcomed by a super-friendly person at the reception and got a very comfortable room - really good size, comfy bed, nice view over the street. Really well located for Ondaretta beach and the funicular and a thirty minute walk along the beautiful seafront to the old town. We didn't have chance to visit the coffee shop on the ground floor but it looked nice - we did visit one of the nice little bars nearby and a great bakery just along the road. The only thing to be aware of is the glass walled shower and toilet - I would think twice about booking again as we both prefer to use the shower and bathroom in private! Ideal fore sole travellers or exhibitionist couples."
