**”BAD: Beware of the 'Upgrade'”**
Our priority when booking was the room size and budget, so we reserved a 32m² City View room.
At check-in, the hotel staff offered us an ”upgrade.” He said that for an additional €25 per day, we could ”upgrade,” so we agreed.
However, while the room did have a Sea View, the size was downgraded to just 21m². I told them that paying €25 to have a smaller room was a downgrade, but they insisted that the view had been upgraded.
I asked to be moved back to the room we originally booked, but the staff ignored my request for an entire day.
Let me ask you this: if you went to see a new landscape, and the view changed, how would you describe it? You wouldn’t say the landscape itself was ”upgraded,” would you? You’d say the view was different or better.
The following day, I finally got a response from the staff. They told me I’d need to pay an additional €70 per day if I wanted a 32m² Sea View room.
While the hotel facilities and scenery are excellent, the staff are focused entirely on business and seem to aim to squeeze every extra euro from their guests.
In the end, we ended up paying the €25.
**Beware of the 'Upgrade.'”**
Beautifully designed contemporary hotel in a great location only a stones throw from the beach and old town. Perfect for a few days exploring San Sebastián. Would definitely stay again.
Good service, big seaside, walking to the city, convenient, recommended

Amazing stay for San Sebastián. Older Victorian style villa converted for boutique hotel use. Excellent concept and room! Cleaning staff was thorough and all staff was amazing and helpful. Didn’t spend much time on the property but no need as the city itself is amazing.
This hotel under the Samsung Michelin Restaurant can be described as perfect, beautiful to speechless scenery and dishes, and the breakfast that has been provided.
Hygienic: very clean, equipped with a toilet
Facilities: very new, with minibar and desk, convenient, large space
Environment: equipped with parking lot and restaurant, rich breakfast, afternoon tea in the afternoon, convenient eating; the road and the mountain outside the window, very beautiful
The terrace of the room is great. I get up every morning and breathe deeply into the waves. 🧘

4.6/5
Outstanding
AAya✴︎Pros:
- cozy and natural woody taste room which is definitely my type
- water is free of charge if you ask the front
- sunshade was smart enough to be controlled by buttons
✴︎Cons:
- no place to get foods besides the restaurant located inside the hotel
- ordering by an item is not available for at least the lunch time we went, had to order 2 items for each person including dessert
- location is a bit far from the busy area of San Sebastian however taking taxi only took 12-13euros even at night, and taking a bus is easy on the way since going to the bus stop is really within a minute.
Overall, I highly recommend this hotel if you are easygoing to get around taking a taxi and a bus and rather sleep in a quiet area.
ととんころりんIt's a 15 minute walk from Kikutetsu station and bus terminal, and a 5 minute walk from the city center private railway station. There is a large supermarket nearby. There are many restaurants nearby, including one that serves Basque-style Japanese cuisine (the owner chef is Japanese).
The hotel is stylish and clean. The only drawback is that the elevator doesn't come easily. Internet speed is ok.
NNacheteVLLThe hotel is very good. Well maintained and clean, with good parking. It is a bit far from the beach but there are buses and if not, a short walk away. Definitely worth going back if the opportunity arises.
TTsuiThe hotel surpassed our expectation, very pleasant stay, the service is unbearable especially the breakfast, talent made most of the items, personal touch which is hard to find these days elsewhere. Very new and chic design, small and feels home away from home. Definitely will come back again when we visit the city!
LLamfood22The hotel room is very large, clean and well-organized, even pillows can have many choices, very intimate! The staff's English is very fluent, and they take the initiative to introduce different attractions, very friendly and polite! The location of the hotel is far from the old city, but there is a bus stop nearby. If you take the bus, you can go to 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 in about 15 minutes. This hotel is highly recommended! 😃
NNagore & JacquieWe have a wonderful experience walking up the hill and locating Avenida Hotel. The views are amazing and looking stunning up the mountain. Great location walking distance to the beach and city. Excellent services at reception and morning breakfast. Easy access to gym and swimming pool.
GGuest UserIf you are looking for a place to sleep and an excellent location for a cheaper price than the surrounding hotels, this is a great option! However, I had not stayed in a pension before and I didn’t realize that we would be sharing a bathroom with 5-6 other people.
The workers were polite, professional and accommodating! They provided coffee, tea and water.

GGuest UserHonestly, I liked the first hotel. I went to four-star but I did not see the cleanliness and uniformity of the room. It was spacious, very beautiful, elegant, and a wonderful bathroom. It had very, very good taste. I hope to return to it. I am very comfortable, but its prices are affordable for everyone. I would give it five stars.

Very Good
GGuest UserIt's worth going to this camping. The spacious facilities, good distribution, swimming pool, restaurant bar with breakfast and others, reception with help, and the best of the houses (I picked one of the couple) are super careful, in detail, and absolute cleaning. If you have thought to go to San Sebastián do not doubt it. Furthermore we went without car and the bus to the center to San Sebastián is the 16 that to just side and fast. So great!
