San Sebastian Hotels

The core of this page is the full range of hotels in San Sebastian, from budget 2-star stays near the beach to five-star landmarks on the river. With 75 hotels, you can find a room for as little as €33 a night or splurge on a top-rated stay like Hotel Villa Soro at €88. The best-rated hotel here is Hotel Villa Soro with a 9.3 rating, while the most expensive is Nobu Hotel San Sebastian at €1,058. Whether you want a seafront classic like Hotel De Londres Y De Inglaterra or a modern boutique like Hotel Arbaso, this page covers the whole spread.

Hotels with Bars in San Sebastian

Several hotels in San Sebastian feature on-site bars, perfect for a drink before heading out to the pintxos bars. The Nobu Hotel has a rooftop bar with sea views, and Lasala Plaza Hotel also offers a rooftop bar in the Old Town. Hotel De Londres Y De Inglaterra boasts a characterful English-style bar, giving you a taste of tradition. For a more intimate setting, Hotel Arbaso's top-rated restaurant may also have a bar, but the rooftop options are the standout choice for views.

Hotels in San Sebastian Old Town

Staying in the Old Town puts you in the heart of San Sebastian's pintxos scene, just steps from the narrow streets and the bay. Hotel Atari offers modern rooms with a sun terrace, right in the Old Town, at a reasonable price from €111. Lasala Plaza Hotel is an adults-only option also in the Old Town, with sea-view rooms and a rooftop bar, though it commands a higher price of €852. For a more central base, you can also consider the accommodations near the cathedral, but the Old Town's charm is its own draw.

Gros Hotel San Sebastian

The Gros district is a lively neighborhood across the Urumea River, known for its surf beach (Zurriola) and a mix of local bars and restaurants. While this page doesn't feature a specific hotel in Gros, you can find options nearby such as the Catalonia Donosti, which is a hillside 4-star with a rooftop pool, just a short walk from the old town. The area offers a more local feel compared to the old town, with the Zurriola beach a key attraction. If you're looking to stay in Gros, it might be worth checking other accommodations on the page that are within walking distance.

Hotels Near Monte Igueldo

Monte Igueldo rises at the western end of the bay, offering some of the most dramatic views in San Sebastian. The Mercure Monte Igueldo sits on the cliff, providing breathtaking views, a seasonal pool, and easy access to the beach. This 4-star hotel is a bit away from the city center but rewards you with a quieter, elevated stay. The Arima Hotel & Spa is also nearby, set in a forest with a rooftop pool, five minutes on foot from the science museum. These are your best bets if you want to wake up to panoramic sea views.

Frequently asked

What is the average price of a hotel in San Sebastian?

The typical price for a night in a San Sebastian hotel is around €88, but you can find budget rooms from as low as €33 and luxury options up to €1,058. Prices vary widely depending on the season and location.

Which district should I choose for my first visit to San Sebastian?

For a first visit, staying in the Old Town puts you right in the pintxos action and close to the main sights. If you prefer beachfront, La Concha is the classic choice, with hotels like the Hotel De Londres Y De Inglaterra. The area around Antiguo (Ondarreta Beach) is quieter but still within walking distance.

How do I get from San Sebastian airport to the city center?

The nearest airport is San Sebastian Airport, about 20 km away, with a bus service into the city. From there, most hotels are a short walk or taxi ride away. Alternatively, you can take a train to the city's main station and then walk to many central hotels.

How far in advance should I book a hotel in San Sebastian?

For the best rates, it's wise to book well in advance, especially if you're planning to visit during the summer or for a major event like the Film Festival. Prices can jump significantly closer to the date, so securing a room early can save you money.

Are San Sebastian hotels walkable at night?

Most hotels in the city center are within safe walking distance of the Old Town's lively pintxos bars and restaurants. If you stay near the beach, like on La Concha, it's a pleasant stroll along the promenade. Areas like Antiguo and Gros are also connected but may need a little more time.

Hotels in San Sebastian

San Sebastian's hotels cluster where the city's life happens: the Old Town's narrow pintxos lanes, the elegant sweep of La Concha bay, and the green hills of Monte Igueldo and Antiguo. You can sleep steps from the beach at the Hotel De Londres Y De Inglaterra, wake to sea views at the Nobu Hotel on La Concha, or retreat to a forest-set eco hotel like Arima Hotel & Spa. The city's compact center means most of these hotels are within a short walk of the beach, the cathedral, or the Aquarium.

Prices here range from €33 to €1,058 a night, with a typical stay around €88. The budget end includes simple 2-star options like La Galeria and Sercotel Codina, while the top end reaches a €1,058 night at the Nobu Hotel. This page also includes a few guest houses and apartments, so you may see those mixed in with the hotels below.

The bottom line

This set of hotels suits anyone who wants to stay right in the heart of San Sebastian, whether you're a first-time visitor drawn to the Old Town's pintxos, a beach lover seeking a room on La Concha, or a traveler looking for a great-value base near the action. If your priorities are different, explore the related pages: for a quieter or more budget-friendly stay, check the cheap and budget hotels; if you're traveling with family, the family-friendly options are filtered for you; for parking convenience, the hotels with parking page is a good next stop; and for a different accommodation style, consider the guest houses in San Sebastian.
