Right in the old town, next to the harbor and trail up to the castle, and can walk to everything easily right from the hotel. Friendly staff and great fresh breakfast offerings each day.

Great location. Great service. The staff were very helpful. The room was too warm therefore the need to sleep with the window open and couldn't sleep because of parties at bars outside. The room was somehow very dusty. But other than that it is a really great place.

A lovely hotel in a great location

A great hotel with professional and friendly staff. We parked close by 30€ per night. Very comfortable beds and high level of cleanliness. They upgraded us, had a bottle of wine left in our room and a complementary glass of wine on arrival which was lovely. We would highly recommend.

Loved the staff, very quiet. Directions if you have a car are very difficult as we’re in the old city and you have to drive on a cobblestone path that says pedestrians only. But there’s an exception for this hotel. Kept feeling like I was going to get in trouble. Íker stayed on the phone with me until I arrived. Couldn’t ask for better service!!

The location is perfect. Garage parking is limited, and based on a prior review we reserved early, it was very convenient (valet). The room is nice, but basic, no lotion available. The bed was very hard, like sleeping on a table. I would have stayed again, if not for the bed hardness.

Superb location for the Old Town with it's bars and shops and only a few minutes walk from the fabulous La Concha beach. The staff are super friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Given it's great location you may get some noise on some nights and the noise level will depend on the location of your room and what floor you are on. Our room on the top floor was spacious with lovely views over the harbour and beyond. The bed was very large and very comfy and the shower in the bathroom was sooo rejuvenating. The room was a bit draughty and the high vaulted window vents are not easily accessible. It would have been nice to have some instructions in the room on how to open/close the vaulted window blinds and how to change the aircon settings. Would we stay here again... Absolutely.

The hotel is in a great spot overlooking the bay and next to a buzzy bar. We received such a warm welcome with a glass of wine and explanation of where is best to go for pintxos and a map of the city. The staff were lovely, helpful and professional. We highly recommend this hotel.
