    A mirror over the desk and a table lamp would be nice and at the price point, would have expected bath robes as standard. Shower both freezing and scalding hot - inconsistent temperature. Both my husband and I received welcome emails in Dutch!

    Easy secure parking under the hotel with large spaces to park, although €25 a night is expensive. Good area for a one night stay with good bars and restaurants a short walk away. Signed up for their loyalty program and got a free welcome drink in the pleasant bar. Big comfortable bed. Friendly competent staff.

    Nothing disappointed us, it was an excellent experience!

    I've never experienced such a positive experience at a hotel - the decor is elegant, the view from our room (sea view Junior Suite) was absolutely stunning, and the staff were fantastic: my partner and I were visiting to celebrate his 40th birthday and they went above and beyond to ensure that we had an enjoyable and memorable time. We purchased the massage, spa and dinner package and I was very pleasantly surprised by the meal we were served (a generously portioned set menu of delicious food), and the couples massage was great. I can't recommend this place enough!

    The bar, gastro pub and dining room are all in the same room which lacks atmosphere. We had a snack in the bar one evening and didn’t enjoy it. The hotel has an unusual policy of providing room cleaning between 9 - 5. If you want to make sure your room has been made up before you return in the afternoon make sure you tell the front desk what time you would like it cleaned. We didn’t do this the first day and were surprised when we returned at 3pm and the room wasn’t cleaned. This is a personal choice, but we found the mattress hard.

    We had several issues, but the front desk staff and the maintenance man responded quickly. The hotel has a parking garage which was a big plus. As the weather wasn’t great we didn’t use the roof top area but it would be a good place to hang out in the summer. Our room was comfortable with plenty of storage space. The iron was useful.

    The restaurant was a little dead. Would have been great to have a bar up on the rooftop (although we could carry drinks up from downstairs)

    Location is great, near old town but away from the crowds, lots of great shops and cafes nearby. Rooms were modern and spacious. Rooftop (pool & lounge area) were a bonus.

    One evening we thought we’d try the bistro to have a simple dinner, but when we asked to sit by the window the waitress said no and literally threw the menus onto another table. We walked out and reported it to reception the next morning. Management were very apologetic and concerned.

    Very good location with great view of San Sebastián from our room. In general very good customer service & great breakfast.

    The weather.. but I can’t blame the hotel for that.

    It’s not very often I’d rate a hotel 10/10 but this place was incredible. Would be nice if they put the lights on for the upper terrace as I spent most evenings up there having a glass of wine. The food, the views, the staff were all top draw. If you choose this place to stay try the buttered fish. It’s so clean and well decorated it’s hard to find a negative. Loads of areas to sit and either lounge around or work. Internet was around 70Mb so no complaints either. I’ll return without a doubt.!
