Barceló Costa Vasca, hotel in San Sebastián

Barceló Costa Vasca is 450 metres from San Sebastián’s Ondarreta Beach, next to Miramar Palace and Gardens. Rooms at the Costa Vasca are bright and minimalist, with lots of natural light.

We returned to this hotel having spent the first few nights of our honeymoon here, 14 years ago. We were given a room upgrade to a room with a balcony, which was great to be able to enjoy the morning sunshine. The bar staff were very happy to continue serving us beyond midnight.

Hotel Monte Ulia, hotel in San Sebastián

Hotel Monte Ulia is located just outside San Sebastián, 20 minutes’ walk from Zurriola Beach. It offers free Wi-Fi and free parking.

Its location is great, its a little out from the hustle of the city yet easy to get to via the 13 bus which stops almost outside the hotel, its about 1.80 euros into town and you get off in the main street and get back on at the same stop you got off at, as the bus turns around here and heads back to the hotel. There is also a nice local coffee shop just by the bus stop at the hotel and a short car drive you can get to the top of Mount Ulia where there are lots of walks through the forest with great views over the city and the sea. Oh yes there is also a great, quiet car park, which is free to guests.

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.

    There are restraints nearby where you can eat delicious Pinchos, so it was quite easy to get to. It was incredibly quiet from night to morning. Yes, there was no noise at all. I never once felt like I was in an unsafe place. Next time I'll try taking the bus.

    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!

    Beautifully designed and decorated boutique hotel, helpful and attentive staff. We pre-booked parking as noted in the hotel details and were grateful they parked the car for us, and offered a complimentary drink on arrival. The room was very smart and comfortable, modern and new. The hotel has been ingeniously created out of a very small space, with hidden parking below the building. The location is right next to the old town with 100s of restaurants and poncho bars, and also right next to La Concha beach. Amazing!

    We had a very nice room for a one night stay while touring Northern Spain. We got a parking space across the road for our hire car and walked into town which took about 20 minutes. The hotel gave us advice on how to get back and we caught a bus which stopped very close by. The room was comfortable with large twin beds and a balcony. Breakfast was good and the service excellent. I even scrounged hot water and cups to make tea from the bar area when the hotel had run out of kettles to lend.

    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.

    Great location in San Sebastián city center, and close to the beach and to some parking facilities. Friendly staff, clean, quiet. Good isolation in the room, there were construction works in the square in front of the hotel and we did not hear any street noise in the room with the terrace door closed. Good value for money for this location, some facilities in the hotel may look a bit outdated yet everything was working just fine.
