Pros
  • For a standard option, the rooms and apartments are quite nice, clean, and modern, so, overall, the hotel offers a lot of value.
  • The apartments are great if you're traveling with family or in a small group, and some have more than one bedroom.
  • Families might also enjoy the babysitting services in the hotel's playroom for when parents want to have a little city outing. 
  • Enjoy breakfast at the Bar Urgell, which focuses on natural ingredients and offers sweet and savory options, plus fresh smoothies, coffee, and other drinks.
  • The location is perfect for climbing Mount Urgell, as you'll be right at the base of the hill and next to the historic port.
Cons
  • Besides breakfast, there isn't any other food service at the hotel, though you'll be close to plenty of eateries in the city. 

Authenticity

SANSEbay Hotel in San Sebastián opened in 2017, so it's a fairly modern property without any hints of authenticity. Still, the hotel is beside the city's historic port, overlooking La Concha Bay, and next to Mount Urgell, which is a unique area to be in.

Location

SANSEbay Hotel boasts an incredible location at the edge of San Sebastián's Old Town, right beside the port and within walking distance of the beach. The hotel is also situated at the entrance to Mount Urgull, a historical site, and natural area filled with remnants of 1813 French resistance fortifications. From the hotel, you'll be ideally positioned to discover the city's most iconic spots and can enjoy stunning sunsets over La Concha Bay.

Rooms & Bathrooms

You'll have your choice of rooms and apartments, all with a minimalist yet sophisticated design, with beds dressed in luxurious linens. Many rooms have views of the bay, while others have lovely terraces to enjoy the seaside atmosphere. The hotel's one- or two-bedroom apartments sleep up to six guests and offer additional space and tranquility, perfect for families or those seeking a longer stay.

Amenities

The hotel doesn’t have a pool, spa, or gym, but it can arrange massages. The property's upper floors are accessible by elevator, and some rooms have accessible bathrooms. Valet parking is available for a daily fee and comes with electric vehicle charging stations. 

Family-Friendliness

The hotel is very family-friendly, with children of all ages being welcome on the property. You can take advantage of the babysitting services and request highchairs, cribs, and rooms with bathtubs.
