Hotel SANSEbay was one of my top favorite parts of the trip in Donostia-San Sebastian. The location was extremely convenient right between the old town downtown area and Urgull mountain for pleasant hiking. It's also only about 10-min walk to the beach entrance. All the staffs were very friendly and informative! Especially, upon check-in, I got a list of the popular pintxo bars and restaurants including their best selling dishes - which was super helpful! Hotel SANSEbay made an outstanding impression of Donostia and is now another reason for me to revisit the city! Definitely, I will look forward to staying at Hotel SANSEbay again for sure!

We spent 4 pleasant nights in a 2 bedroom apartment at the hotel. The room was fine - clean and comfortable, albeit on the small side - and had everything we needed for the stay. The staff was friendly and helpful as well. The best thing about the hotel is the location - practically on the water, and within easy walking distance of pretty much everything. If you are driving, just be aware that it isn't the easiest to get to and that the available parking is limited - both in terms of spots and the size of the vehicle the garage can accommodate. The hotel sent us a helpful video before our arrival showing how to navigate to the front door, and also directed us to nearby underground parking when our car wouldn't fit in their garage. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again, and highly recommend.

Lovely hotel, great location, great staff

Lovely location and rooms. Nice team. Tasty breakfast. Limited facilites (lounge, bar etc). Only (real) drawback is there is a bar right outside the front of the hotel, so quite a bit of noise through afternoon into evening. Though generally all very good natured and light, bubbling Spanish chatter mainly.

The Best Boutique Hotel

We had an incredible stay at the SANSEbay Hotel! The welcome and service was outstanding, the room was beautiful with views across the sea and best of all the location was in the heart of the vibrant old town.

Highly recommend staying here!

Wonderful service, very comfortable, and beautiful views! I will 100% stay here the next time I come back. My only feedback is for the hotel to provide instructions for how to drive to the hotel, since most of the roads are pedestrian only. As a reminder for anyone driving, you need to reserve a car spot in advance. There was a guy who did not and he was very rude to the receptionist.

Best location, stylish and comfortable. Rooms are just really small - so small that the big window only opens 20% and we but a chair above a closet for the second suitcase. And the view is a wall… a nice brick wall, but a wall. Would stay here in a beat on a quick trip with very little luggage - or only book a front room with a view - but just too tight for comfort. Was too full for us to upgrade our room, which I think would have changed the experience a lot.

Great place to stay while in San Sabastian

The hotel is cute and the staff is nice. We were close to every thing, the restaurants and the beach. We had a room on the left side and people walking by could see into our room. That was the only issue that we had. The restaurant was nice to grab coffee in the morning and even a croissant or hot meal. I would definitely stay here again.
