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.

    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!

    Beautiful city beside spectacular beaches and scenery. Great shopping, great food and friendly people. I could live there easily! It rains a little more there than other parts of Spain but there's so much going on it doesn't really matter. It's a place you can enjoy no matter the weather.

    The location was superb as we were only a block from the beach. We could walk everywhere once we parked the car a couple of blocks away in the hotel’s underground garage. The front desk experience was great as Daniel, the clerk, was very welcoming and informative with a great sense of humour. Our room was small but very comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was the best! We even had cava to make mimosas! San Sebastián was beautiful—the scenery was spectacular and we really enjoyed the atmosphere in the old town.

    The location is excellent. In a quiet corner of the old town and at the foot of the Estatua del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús hill. The staff was kind and very helpful, and the hotel and room were clean with attention to detail. We visited for the annual Tamborrada festival and was given earplugs for a good night's rest and also received a complimentary room upgrade. We loved staying at the SANSEbay hotel and will return if we were to visit San Sebastian again.

    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.

    The location of this beautiful hotel is fabulous, just a few metres from the promenade and beach and a short walk to the old town. The underground secure parking is excellent and extremely close to the hotel. It is a little expensive though at 29 euros per day . We dropped off our bags at the hotel and the staff explained exactly how to enter the car park. Our room was very comfortable with a beautiful white marble bathroom and excellent shower.

    We were on a road trip from Paris to various cities in Spain and Portugal. We had stayed in 8 hotels by the time we arrived Tres Reyes, which turned out to be the most comfortable hotel. It was clean, fresh, modern, quiet, and reasonably priced. Front desk staff were friendly and multi-lingual. We wished we had stayed longer, and would love to come again before long.
