3. Mercure Monte Igueldo
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Mercure Monte Igueldo is located on the mountain of the same name and offers a truly fairy-tale-like view. This beautiful hotel combines comfort with a panoramic view of the entire coastline of San Sebastián. A pretty unique location to stay in the city.
Pro: The luxury and the view
Con: Just outside the city centre, the hotel is next to a children's amusement park, which slightly takes away from its luxurious feel—but does make it a great spot for families.
4- Hotel Zenit
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hotel Zenit is located just on the edge of the city centre and is designed for business stays. However, it is also a perfect base for a city trip to San Sebastián. Friend’s have stayed there for a few days, and it was ideal. Friendly staff, delicious food, a great breakfast, and a quiet room (even though the hotel is next to a busy road).
Pro: You can hire bikes next to the hotel. In 8 minutes, you will be in the Old Town.
Con: The area it’s located in, Amara, is a series of high rise blocks from the 1960s - 1980s. Not exactly picturesque.
5- Lasala Plaza hotel
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Lasala Plaza hotel adults only, is 80 metres from Calle Mayor, within the Old Town, and just a 2-minute walk from La Concha promenade. It has a sweet rooftop bar and pool. Despite its central location, the well insulated rooms still offer a calm, quiet sleeping environment.
Pro: right in the heart of everything: a stone’s throw to the beach and surrounded by the famous pinxo bars…
Con: Adults only (though that can be a plus too…).
