Clean and modern property. Nice breakfast. Just be mindful that the property is a bit far out of the main town.

Casual de las Olas San Sebastian Hotel by Casual Hoteles
Highly highly recommend - while unassuming from the outside, it has large and lovely rooms. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the bathroom large, with good amenities. It's a short walk from then centre and the beach (about 15-20 mins walk from La Concha). It's a fantastic place to stay.

Axel Hotel San Sebastián - Adults Only
Great hotel, spacious room nicely styled. With bathroom etc being at angles it is quite tricky to navigate in the dark if need to during the night. Spa is a nice feature to have in a city centre location. Staff extremely helpful and friendly would stay again.
