Hotels Near Mount Ulia in San Sebastian

We have rented two rooms for one week in July 2023. Both apartments were very nice and spacious enough. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom and shower very nice, the hairdryer of good quality. The kitchen was equipped with everything you need (even a dishwasher, iron, drying racket for clothes). Great holiday home feeling! Definitely a 3-4 star experience. The city and the beach are in walking distance, so are numerous restaurants, bars, super markets, etc. And San Sebastian is a great city, for sure worth a return. Also very handy is the washing machine and dryer in the basement (4 Euro). What I would improve: 1. The idea of self cleaning the apartment is ok (the receptionist explained it clearly), but there is no groom available to wipe away the sand when coming from the beach, no cloth to clean the bathroom. So you either need to bring your own basic cleaning equipment for vacation or go and buy stuff. 2. We enjoyed having a toaster, but power outlets are on weird places (see pic). 3. We did not realize that parking facilities are super limited and did not reserve a spot in advance, so we ended up parking in a park house which was very expensive (Txofre, which is close by). 4. The apartment was clean, but not the balcony (bread crumbs and stains of coffee on the table), I would include the balcony to the cleaning routine.

After an 11 day trip visiting the Spanish and French Basque region using the Abba San Sebastian as my base for 7 nights, I have to take the time to praise the team and management of Abba. Check-in was quick and efficient. Unfortunately, there is not enough staff to help transport bags to the room. The cozy room is on the small size but cozy enough to manage for sleep and refreshing. The room and bath are both modern, clean and somewhat luxurious. The entire hotel only opened in 2020. The breakfast was fresh, more than adequate in terms of selections and the same every day. The staff both the very capable Julian and the always-smiling female attendant (I forgot her name unfortunately) were always attending to guests, clearing plates, refreshing selections at the counter and more. The location of the hotel is within walking distance of all in San Sebastian. Be sure to engage the best bartender in the Basque, Sergio. Order his own creation which is a hard liquor infused Sangria. Wow! I highly recommend a stay at the Abba. Would I stay here again? Yes, absolutely.

The room was very good, there was a high-end feeling, and welcome champagne was also sent. The front desk service was warm, helped to book the restaurant and provided various information. There is a little regret that there is no big mirror in the room and it is impossible to shine. I don't know what the reaction of those stars to try on clothes without a full-length mirror when they come to live

My husband and I spent 3 nights in this lovely boutique hotel in San Sebastian. It is very centrally located - only a short walk from the old town and the beach. The reception staff are so friendly and helpful and gave us some really good restaurant recommendations. The rooms are lovely and very well serviced. The self service breakfast was very extensive and the servers were so friendly. I would really recommend this hotel as a place to stay in San Sebastion and we would certainly stay there again.

Loved this hotel! Would highly recommend it to all our friends and family. The position is perfect and the welcome we received was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was gorgeous. Two pretty shuttered windows overlooking the cathedral and square, fantastic bathroom and we both said the most comfortable bed we have slept on in an hotel for a while! Also the blackout blinds were excellent. House keeping just fantastic, so clean and tidy everyday. Narru the hotel restaurant was delicious and ate there twice!! You must book as it is very popular with locals too. The oxtail ravioli, hake with cauliflower and red tuna gazpacho just to highlight a few were just delicious. Above all the service from all the staff was tremendous. Always smiling and ready to offer great recommendations. Thank you for a super stay we will definitely return.

There has been a hotel at this location on the beach in San Sebastion for since the 1880s. The current Hotel de Londres was built around 1915 and it is a grand hotel that retains its elegance while offering modern convivences. First, a cautionary note. During our visit, many of the streets in San Sebastion were under construction and multiple streets had restricted access. Unfortunately, the main entrance to Hotel de Londres is located on a one-way street marked 'Bus and Taxi only.” It took twenty frustrating minutes of driving around before I decided to just ignore the road markings and drive down the restricted street to the hotel. Sensing my frustration, the hotel staff offered to park my car in the hard-to-find underground parking structure. Fortunately, we never needed to drive again during our 5 night stay. The scores of pintxo bars in the historic area are within easy walking distance. And taxis are readily available to take you to more remote restaurants. The hotel is marvelous, and the location is superb. Our ocean view junior suite overlooked grand promenade that runs the length of Concha bay. We could see boats in the bay, people on the beach, the spectacular scenery, and hundreds of people enjoying a stroll from morning to night. The promenade just outside to hotel was a magnet for street performers including two attractive and talented people dancing tango for tips. Our suite had a separate living area, a black marble bath filled with mirrored walls and a tub/shower combo, and a comfortable bed. The downstairs bar and enclosed terrace is restricted to hotel guests only so tables and chairs are easy to find most times of the day. We chose to eat dinner in the hotel restaurant one stormy night and it was a good experience: just be sure to make reservations. We would certainly return to this beautiful hotel in a spectacular city. Highly recommended.

The hotel is super luxurious, the location is great, the hotel is very new, the room is large, the facilities are complete, the service is superb, the breakfast is great, in short, it is a superb travel experience

Unfortunately the hotel was a little underwhelming for me. We stayed for 3 nights at the City room, which says it can come with two Twin beds, a double bed, Queen, or King-size. I must have been unlucky because we had a double bed and room was tiny (there is no way a queen or king size bed can be included in the room). The layout was very odd: room was very small but it had a wide entrance and sizeable showers and toilet which was as big as the room. The only positive was the balcony which was quite nice (and big!). The breakfast was quite nice with plenty of choices so we enjoyed that. The other positive was the nice rooftop pool and lounge which would be nice during a hot summer. The gym is pretty good for the hotel, you can get a good workout here. And the indoor pool/sauna is delightful. We spent a few hours here relaxing (and inclusive of hotel price). However,i would also say the location is not ideal for us. We only had 3 days and most of the attractions are located and tours in the old town which was 15-20min walk away, so as we spent a lot of time there with rests in between day and night, we spent a lot of time walking back and forth which became tedious after a few days. When I come back to SS i would likely find a hotel closer to the old town. This is just my recommendation though.

Spent two nights here at the end of May. We arrived into San Sebastián on the bus from Bilbao Airport and after a 30-minute walk arrived at the hotel. We got to the hotel around midday and were thinking of leaving our bags at reception until the room became available, but after 15 minutes we were able to check in and get our cardkey. The room was very contemporary with a comfortable bed and good storage facilities, a fridge and a safe. As is common in Spain there were no tea of coffee making facilities, but complimentary water was provided. The room had a balcony that looked out over the main road outside, but the room had good soundproofing and we were not disturbed. The bathroom was clean and modern, though was incorporated within the bedroom rather than being a separate room. This meant there was little soundproofing and the frosted glass did not leave much to the imagination! The hotel is about 30 minutes away from the main tourist attractions of San Sebastián, and is in a more residential part of the city. There are some great bars and pintxos restaurants close to the hotel, and in one particular we would recommend is Oliyos. There is no restaurant on site but they do have a coffee bar, though we went out for breakfast both days to a bakery across the road. Ondarreta beach is close by and on the first day of our stay it was warm and sunny and we be spent a few hours there. Overall we were happy with our stay here and would recommend as a base when visiting the city.

We chose this hotel for our express exit to Donosti in accommodation and breakfast and we loved it! The room is very beautiful, modern, well equipped, the comfortable beds, a very chill-glass shower, the very soft and absorbent towels, hair dryer ”real” (not the powerless tube that usually offers other hotels), The hotel is located in the heart of the city centre, and the hotel is located in the heart of the city centre. The room was very comfortable and the room was very comfortable. The coffee shop despite being capsules offers a very rich coffee without being the ”aguachirri” you usually find in hotels. Personally we loved it. We were left two posts and a welcome note with a bottle of water. We recommend it and if We'll return to Donosti without doubt to repeat.
