Will stay here again without a doubt
It is such a beautiful & luxurious hotel. we enjoyed it thoroughly. Hotel staff was able to secure a dinner reservation @11pm when we arrived late due to a train delay. And the restaurant they sent us is the our favorite in San Sebastian (Gandarias) . Our room has water view (both river and the bay).
