Excellent location, walking distance to all attractions, beach, old city and Pincho bars. The staff were amazing, and helped us figure out what tours to take and they even made all the reservations for us on line. The restaurant at the hotel Narru was also excellent and so convenient. Great menu and wonderful food. I highly recommend this hotel, will definitely rebook Arbaso if I revisit San Sebastián again.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The staff were warm, welcoming, and very accommodating, and the hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. I also appreciated the excellent room service from the fantastic hotel restaurant. The location was perfect — close to many shops and restaurants, yet still quiet and peaceful inside the room despite nearby street traffic. I’d be happy to stay here again if I return to San Sebastián.

This hotel was perfect for us. Excellent location in smart central area of town by the cathedral. Everything we wanted to see was in reasonable walking distance. The staff were brilliant. Very polite, friendly and helpful. Negotiating the one way system was a bit challenging. lots of smart shops around. Loved the understated decor of the hotel. Freebies in minibar a nice touch. Towels provided for the beach. Fantastic, clean sandy beach and clean sea water - not something we’re used to in England. Highly recommended hotel.
