- Donostia / San Sebastián, Spain
Perched on Monte Igeldo with sea views from both the dining room and bedrooms, this characterful old wooden building, family-run, immaculately kept, and decorated with real personality, wins hearts through warmly attentive staff who greet arriving guests with maps and local guidance, and a breakfast table laden with homemade bizcochos, fresh fruit, and a generous spread of teas and infusions.
- San Sebastián, Spain
Perched high above San Sebastián with sweeping views of the ocean on one side and the Pyrenees on the other, this charming rural guesthouse wins guests back year after year with its warm, attentive welcome, generous breakfasts, and spotlessly kept rooms, though those seeking a polished, contemporary finish should note the décor leans pleasingly old-fashioned.
- San Sebastián, Spain
Perched right on the water's edge in San Sebastián, Hotel Villa Favorita wins hearts with its elegantly appointed, spotless rooms framing breathtaking bay views through large windows, attentive staff whose warmth feels entirely unforced, and a breakfast and bar service, David and Steven at the latter earning particular praise, that together make waking to the sound of the sea feel like an effortless pleasure.
- Donostia / San Sebastián, Spain
Perched right on the beach in San Sebastián, this hotel wins hearts through its sea-view rooms, room 708 in particular, where guests watch the sunset over the water, backed by staff who will cheerfully arrange an upgrade and a breakfast that draws nothing but superlatives.
- San Sebastián, Spain
Sitting directly opposite La Concha beach, this early twentieth-century hotel charms with its period character and reliably helpful staff, though rooms are modest and simply furnished, and breakfast is best skipped in favour of the city's own cafés.
- San Sebastián, Spain
Perched high on Monte Ulía with breathtaking views of the city and ocean, this design-led boutique retreat offers spacious, light-filled rooms and a peaceful pool, though its remote hillside setting, steep walk back from town, patchy Wi-Fi, and a rather sparse cold-only breakfast at €28 a head mean it suits unhurried travellers with their own transport far better than those seeking the polish and convenience of a conventional hotel.
- Donostia / San Sebastián, Spain

A tranquil, family-scaled hotel in a hillside location where guests praise the attentive staff, intimate terraces, and peaceful atmosphere, though serious complaints about management rudeness and unresponsive administration significantly undermine the warmth.

Tucked beside the cathedral in the heart of San Sebastián, this well-kept pension wins its guests over with spotless rooms, quality bedding, balconies overlooking the neighbourhood, and a warmly helpful front desk that lends umbrellas in the rain and holds luggage well past checkout without a fuss.
- San Sebastián, Spain
Splendidly positioned on the very steps of the Basílica de Santa María del Coro in San Sebastián's old town, Hotel Atari wins praise for its table-served breakfasts and friendly staff, though prospective guests should be aware that rooms can be small and noisy, and several reviewers have raised serious concerns about reception staff conduct and data security.
