Outstanding view of the bay from Monte Igueldo. You can easily take the funicular to the lower city and walk the promenade or take a bus right to the old town. We usually walked in and bussed back.

Es un hotel que se construyó hace muchísimos años pero está perftament bien adaptado. Es cómodo, limpio agradable, perfecto para grupos o simposiums, en la misma propiedad esta un parque de diversiones y el funicular. Tiene la mejor vista de San Sebastian sin duda, los turistas están obligados a asistir al hotel para tomar un café y disfrutar la visita de la bahía de La Concha, hermoso!!!!!

Air conditioning does not operate until June. It’s 80*f in room. No fan possible. They advertise pool- it’s closed “until summer”. False advertising, there is no mention pool and air conditioning not available for our stay. Restaurant average, served wrong dishes. Hotel has amazing views!!!!

I was VERY VERY disappointed on arriving at the Hotel to discover that the swimming pool was not in use. I only booked this hotel because it HAD a swimming pool. I would NOT have booked this hotel if I had known the pool was not in use. What have you got to say? I hope for some compensation.

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!

Do yourself a favor and get a room with a sea facing view. It's truly stunning. Staff was friendly and nice, not overly solicitous. You'll need transportation to get into to town, but the view is exquisite.
