Amazing view – totally worth it! The room was a bit dusty on arrival, but otherwise clean and comfortable. Room facilities were excellent and well-maintained. Breakfast was nice, though the hot food and dinner options felt a bit limited, especially for international guests. Overall, a great stay with stunning scenery!

Beautiful hotel in prime view location with very nicely decorated rooms. Due to good weather they kept the pool open during our stay. Phenomenal views and quality loungers on the roof deck. A few of the staff were a bit brusque and we waited a long time for service at the bar when we first arrived. Room soundproofing left something to be desired. Opportunity to enable making a cup of tea in room not just pod coffee. Breakfast buffet steep at EUR 24pp

Amazing views and resort feel!

Excellent stay at Mercure San Sebastián. Pick this hotel because it was a respite from city centers during our travels. It gave you an excellent resort feel. The views and panoramic location was gorgeous. It was quite difficult though to get down to the town as the pannicular does not start till 1030 and it ends at 8:30 so we needed to rely on taxis of which they took minimum of 10 to 15 minutes to get up to the hill and sometimes many people were waiting ahead of us. The walk down or up is on a very curved road with steep incline and little protection from cars, therefore we did not walk and the path was quite long. Otherwise, we are very happy with our stay.

We did not realize there was an amusement park outside the hotel but the furnicular was an amazing bonus to help us get down into town. The views from the hotel are absolutely stunning and the pool deck is likely the most picturesque pool scene we have ever enjoyed!

Loved this property, the view is breathtaking and the dinner was really good. There is an amusement park at the base of the hotel which would be really fun with small kids. There is also a tran type ride that will take you to the bottom of the hill where the beach is. Downside: The front desk is a bit slow and not always attended.

Incredible hotel, view from our room were the best we've ever had. Spectacular meal at the restaurant, loved the art deco feel of the bar/lobby area. Staff were great. Bed was not comfy - very very firm and felt old. Everything else about the hotel was worthy of five stars! But had trouble getting good sleep.
