We stayed here for a 4 day family break in August 2011. We arrived hot and tired so headed for the pool area. The pool is large and well maintained and the only way in is through a doorway with an automatically triggered cold shower - it is verboten to be unclean in the pool! I admire the cleanliness but...

Service good, if a little unfriendly for guests who can't speak Spanish. Fully services available. Our experience was that this property was good as a leisure stay, but would also be appropriate for a business traveller. More

3 night stay. Nice room with a good bathroom and excellent shower. The air con would not go below 21.5c but it felt more like 24c. Good selection at breakfast on first two mornings. On the 3rd day there were several parties of very hungry junior footballers in who ate everything in sight and the staff struggled to replenish stocks.... More

I recently spent two weeks in Europe, which included five different hotels. This was by far the most expensive of the five and probably the worst. I stayed here though because it was the only room I could find in San Sebastian for less than $500. (I ended up spending about $300 a night. I cringe thinking about it.) The... More

We had 3 nights at the Barcelo Costa Vasca in June 2011 whilst visiting friends in San Sebastian. On the whole, the hotel was very good. We booked a superior room which was excellent. Very spacious and immaculately clean. As pointed out by some other reviewers, the bathrooms do have tinted glass doors which are see-through when the bathroom light... More

We stayed here for 2 nights during our 6 week honeymoon in europe. Our travel agent booked this hotel for us 2 or so months in advance, given we were staying in peak season. All hotel bookings had a note that we were on our honeymoon. You can imagine my surprise when we checked into our room to find that... More

Arrived early but provided room. Good reception. Room 'boutique' modern. Good fittings and huge bed. Very good bathroom with power/massage shower, but no bath or bidet. Reasonable toiletries. Only problem with rooms is 'paper thin' doors (not literally) which allow for all corridor sounds to intrude - 24/7. Can be annoying when you have a large family in adjoining room.... More

We stayed here for four nights and were greeted with an attempt to charge us 17 euros for parking per night. We found the free road parking round the block surprisingly enthusiastically. Our room was too hot and the air con was not working. After complaining to the manager after the first night, he informed us that it was my... More

"Average": That is the definition of this hotel. Hotel is nice although not in the level of most of 4 stars in Spain. Fornitures are new although quality does not look too good. Room is nice and confortable although noisy (is someone talks in the corridor you can listen to him). Service is nice although nothing special (we had an... More

We had booked two rooms at this hotel both of which were supposed to be non-smoking. Upon arrival we were told that half of the hotel's rooms are smoking and that was all they had available. I was traveling with my two year old son and found this to be completely unacceptable. Needless to say the room smelled horrible. It... More
