We loved this hotel! First of all, the front desk speak English fluently and they were very kind…read moreand friendly. Second, even though it's far from the main part of San Sebastián, the bus stop is right in front of the hotel and they run between 8am and 10pm every half an hour. If you don't like to take bus down, you can just walk up to Monte Igueldo (about 5 minutes walk from the hotel) and take funicular down. (It costs more but it's fun to do it) Yes it'll add up some money for the transportation, but it's cheaper to stay here than anywhere else in old town. The view from the hotel is gorgeous! We didn't try their breakfast but it's only 6€ per person which is not expensive at all. You can make tea, coffee, hot chocolate at the dining room all afternoon (until 10pm I believe) and we enjoyed our tea with cheesecakes and cookies we brought back from a pastry shop in old town while viewing ocean in the evening. If we ever come back to San Sebastián, we'll definitely come back here and stay again!!
