Es un hotel que se construyó hace muchísimos años pero está perftament bien adaptado. Es cómodo, limpio agradable, perfecto para grupos o simposiums, en la misma propiedad esta un parque de diversiones y el funicular. Tiene la mejor vista de San Sebastian sin duda, los turistas están obligados a asistir al hotel para tomar un café y disfrutar la visita de la bahía de La Concha, hermoso!!!!!

I was VERY VERY disappointed on arriving at the Hotel to discover that the swimming pool was not in use. I only booked this hotel because it HAD a swimming pool. I would NOT have booked this hotel if I had known the pool was not in use. What have you got to say? I hope for some compensation.

Do not stay there! The rooms were filthy. Dust all over the room. Dirty cleaning water marks on the walls and the staff didn’t seem to care when I went down to receipt to inform them of the state of the room nor when I showed them the photos. Also there was no hot water in the morning!

Strange man at barrier entrance, not in any form of uniform and wanted to see our hotel booking confirmation - didn’t explain why. Made us feel uncomfortable. Reception staff not very welcoming. Bath wasn’t clean - found hairs floating in the bath I had run. Bar food was terrible and overpriced. The hotel views are absolutely amazing and the bar seating area is beautiful. Breakfast was lovely with great views but wouldn’t stay again. Very isolated if you want to explore on foot.

We did not realize there was an amusement park outside the hotel but the furnicular was an amazing bonus to help us get down into town. The views from the hotel are absolutely stunning and the pool deck is likely the most picturesque pool scene we have ever enjoyed!

Excellent hotel for those who don’t mind taking taxi back each time after night dinner because the walk to old city is exactly 3km; but awesome promenade walk though! 2.50 euro per person for funicular will get you to and up of shore line conveniently but works only til 8:30 pm

Spectacular view and location. The funicular takes you to the beach and if you love to walk, like we do, you can explore the old city. The room was comfortable. We wanted to swim some laps so we were disappointed the oook was closed in the overcast weather. We had dinner in the bar. The food was good but the staff overwhelmed and service was slow. The house wine by the glass was disappointing given all the great wines in Spain.

Do yourself a favor and get a room with a sea facing view. It's truly stunning. Staff was friendly and nice, not overly solicitous. You'll need transportation to get into to town, but the view is exquisite.

Loved this property, the view is breathtaking and the dinner was really good. There is an amusement park at the base of the hotel which would be really fun with small kids. There is also a tran type ride that will take you to the bottom of the hill where the beach is. Downside: The front desk is a bit slow and not always attended.

Incredible hotel, view from our room were the best we've ever had. Spectacular meal at the restaurant, loved the art deco feel of the bar/lobby area. Staff were great. Bed was not comfy - very very firm and felt old. Everything else about the hotel was worthy of five stars! But had trouble getting good sleep.

Hotel sits on top of Mount Igueldo. Beautiful views. It is far from the beach so be prepared for a long walk if you want to go to the beach from the hotel. Nice breakfast but very expensive

The location of the hotel is stunning (on top of a hill overlooking the Atlantic and the town) and the rooftop pool has great views. The inside bar and lounge is lovely with great views of the Atlantic. The views make it. Everything else was good. The restaurant is very good. The service was slow at times. Sometime there weren’t enough staff when the hotel was busy and you had to wait a long time and sometimes orders were very delayed or there were no clean tables at breakfast.

All that glitters is not gold. Shower and ac good. Bed ok but defineately hard. Service - I've seen happier people at a funeral and staff per demand is low so both those are on management. Wifi weak and flakey. In room coffee ...instant coffee ....that is 2 star hotel stuff not to mention only 1 regular packet and not replaced. No iron or ironning board available. Just a litany of thing that keep this grand on the surface but less so underneath
