Hotel Monte Ulia, hotel in San Sebastián

Hotel Monte Ulia is located just outside San Sebastián, 20 minutes’ walk from Zurriola Beach. It offers free Wi-Fi and free parking.

Its location is great, its a little out from the hustle of the city yet easy to get to via the 13 bus which stops almost outside the hotel, its about 1.80 euros into town and you get off in the main street and get back on at the same stop you got off at, as the bus turns around here and heads back to the hotel. There is also a nice local coffee shop just by the bus stop at the hotel and a short car drive you can get to the top of Mount Ulia where there are lots of walks through the forest with great views over the city and the sea. Oh yes there is also a great, quiet car park, which is free to guests.

FAQs about hotels in San Sebastián









Amazing Coastline and Historical Beauty

San Sebastian is a famous beach resort in the north of Spain with picturesque coastline, vibrant nightlife and amazing Basque gastronomy.

Playa de la Concha is one of the world’s most popular city beaches, ideal for watersports lovers. Rent a surfboard on Zurriola beach or just relax on a cosy lounge chair under your umbrella.

Established as the culinary capital of Spain, San Sebastian features a variety of bars and restaurants serving delicious pintxos (Basque-style tapas), fresh seafood and fine wine. According to Spanish tradition, you should have one tapa and a wine in one bar, then move on to the next bar.

The tree-covered hill standing just across the gulf is called Urgull and offers spectacular views over the bay and city. Situated at the bottom of it, Parte Vieja is the old part of the town where you can mix with the locals and visit some of the city’s most interesting historical attractions.

San Sebastian Airport is located 20 km east, so it's a short journey into the city itself. Booking.com offers a choice of accommodation ranging from luxury hotels to guest houses, apartments and budget hostels.

    There are restraints nearby where you can eat delicious Pinchos, so it was quite easy to get to. It was incredibly quiet from night to morning. Yes, there was no noise at all. I never once felt like I was in an unsafe place. Next time I'll try taking the bus.

    San Sebastian is really a great city for views: you have 2 mountains accessible on foot with great views on the bay (concha), the city and the ocean. There is also nice architecture (Art Nouveau), a great basque history/art museum (San Telmo) and a maritime museum with an aquarium. And there is a great beach for surfing (Zurriola). So on the boulevards you can see side by side a surfer with surfboard and a very smartly dressed couple walking toward the Kuursaal.

    Parks and beaches are beautiful.

    Parks and beaches are beautiful. Food at some bars and restaurants is phenomenally good! I didn’t have time to visit museums, but I expect they are up to the quality of other aspects of public life. And people on the street and in the bars seemed to be enjoying themselves a lot. (Although everyone seems to love a holiday weekend.)

    The city is pretty and clean.

    The city is pretty and clean. The food is excellent and varied leaning heavily to sea food. It is easy enough to walk around, there is taxi service for some of the attractions not downtown e.g. the stadium. Let me say, however, it is not as inexpensive as other places in Spain. Food can be pricey, especially some of the sampling meals in the restaurants. My Spanish is pretty okay, but, believe me Basque is not at all similar, fortunately, most menus, etc. are written in Spanish, French and English as well. The people are friendly and will work with you.

    Beautiful city with amazing beaches, charming architecture, tons of amazing spots for pintxos, and a laid-back vibe. Public buses worked fine and there were taxis readily available during the day, but it's small enough to walk almost anywhere.

    Loved San Sebastian and will return.

    Loved San Sebastian and will return. Apartment was really well placed for the beach - pity we didn't see there was beach chairs till we were packing to leave. Very spacious and airy and good for drying clothes in the little courtyard - could have done with having some info leaflets about SS. We took a boat to the island and the atmosphere there was amazing - I would definitely recommend!

    Everything! This is the most amazing hotel , a stunning grand historic beauty. After 4 days exploring the town , we can assure you that it has the best location in San Sebastion. We had a truly beautiful room with a gorgeous balcony looking out over the most picturesque panorama of the whole beach, the promenade and spectacular landmarks.. This hotel was the highlight of a 3 week trip in Spain. The bar is fabulous with a picture postcard view of the passing parade. The marble bathroom was huge with every amenity.

    Very smooth check in even though we were a bit early. Previously had a room at the rear, this time we had street view which was nice too. A bit more noise, but that is to be expected in Spain, & it was all part of the atmosphere, seeing people at the pavement tables beneath. Location is excellent, its an easy 10-15 minute walk to the bus station. ( bus to Bilbao airport is €17 ), and 7 mins or so to the fabulous old town pinxto bars. Hope to be back sometime soon!

    A short walk puts you on the lovely beach promenade; on La Concha beach itself; in a lovely, vibrant plaza; or in the old city, which offers a huge number of choices of pinxtos bars and restaurants. I was only in San Sebastián for two days, so this location was perfect. The young woman who works in reception was one of the friendliest and kindest people I encountered in three weeks in Spain. Especially as a senior solo traveler, I really appreciated that.

Breakfast was tasty with plenty of choice. Staff at the hotel were really friendly and gave us a map and a list of recommendations on arrival. Room was nice but a little bit impractical.

    Amazing location, most likely best in San Sebastian. If you have young kids this is the place to be as there is a small amusement park on the back side. The views and setting are stunning. If eating at hotel restaurant reservations are necessary. I was having rental car issues while there and the staff were great about calling the car rental agency and trying to straighten out the issue.
