Donostialdea Hotels with Parking

I was asked a good ten times if I was a guest of the hotel because it was during the film festival. I felt like I was disturbing them because I was there as a simple guest and not as a guest of the festival. Or they must not like my face... When you pay twice as much for a hotel as normal because of this festival and you feel like an intruder who is constantly being spied on... you tell yourself that the hotel should have closed its doors to ”simple” guests for the occasion.

Exceeded my expectations, it's much better than what the reviews suggested. The location is excellent, right next to the Shell Beach, although the hotel doesn't offer a view of it. The shower in the bathroom has strong water pressure. The room has large windows, and while there might be some noise issues as others mentioned, earplugs can easily solve that. The room itself is also quite spacious. Breakfast was good too. When booking, I requested two single beds, and the hotel paid attention to my preference, unlike other places that often get the bed type wrong. This was a pleasant surprise.

I contacted Luis via his website to let him know we'd be late checking in and right away, he responded. Within minutes, we were messaging each other on WhatsApp. Luis sent me loads of useful information and helped us get settled. The Pension Joakina is lovely and the whole place is immaculate. I could hear the staff cleaning every morning. The location was brilliant and we were able to walk to all of the places we planned to see. We will definitely go back. David (habitación verde)

A boutique hotel close to the Dona Katalina Zubia. There are two entrances to the hotel, the main one facing the road and the other entrance facing the Urumea River. Staff were friendly and always had a smile. The hotel is quite clean and everything is within 15mins walk. The amenities are limited, but there is a 24 hour reception and bar downstairs, a nice roof top sunbathing area and a gym. Please double check the other amenities listing when booking, as I don't recall seeing the Public Bath, Foot Bath and Clothes Dryer as advertise. I would also suggest to check the batteries of the remotes before someone check ins, as I had to request it to be changed and it wasn't available until the next day, more compliment bottles of water and dental kits (given there was 3 of us and only 2 bottles and 1 kit). Overall though, I enjoyed the stay and would come back again.

Appreciated the free parking and beautiful views of the city below. The hotel is also conveniently located near the bus stop. Our hotel room was pretty clean but I would describe the room amenities as basic. The pillows were too soft - presumably due to the lack of pillow filling. The motion sensor lights in the toilet also turned off every 5 mins which was a bit annoying sometimes. For the price paid, I still think our stay was worth it.

I had a small room, but it was perfect for one person. The apartment is very comfortable, with plenty of toiletries and kitchen supplies available for guests to use. The host also recommended places to visit in the city. She prepared breakfast in the morning, and it was incredibly delicious. The hostess is very hospitable and kind; this really made the whole trip special, for which I’d like to thank her especially.

The pension is easy to find, and staff are very helpful. Beds are comfortable; coffee and tea are available; everything is clean. The only difficulty might be is there is only one bathroom for all the guests. We were here in low season, so didn't have much difficulty, but I can imagine problems in the high season. The pension is in the old part of San Sebastian, so visiting the most picturesque parts is easy, as is visiting nearby villages. Local food is excellent. I highly recommend this pension; excellent value for your money. It's the best base for exploring this part of the Basque Country.

Facilities: Excellent! The location is superb! The environment is great! It's just a bit inconvenient for getting around; best suited for those driving. There is free parking. Cleanliness: Very good! High-end! Environment: Absolutely stunning, overlooking Shell Bay! Service: So-so! Breakfast is excellent!!!

Genial. Nuevo y limpio. Habitación espaciosa y funcional. Tiene secador y jabones. Tiene café y té disponible tanto en la habitación como en el hall. Buena comunicación y fácil acceso. Al lado de la playa de Ondarreta.

The hotel is located in a quiet area, about 25 minutes walk from the coast and the old hole. The room is not very large but it is functional. The hotel is very comfortable and comfortable.
