Where To Stay
San Sebastián is a city we absolutely love, with a mix of lively and laid-back neighbourhoods, each offering something special.
When we visit, we always find ourselves drawn to the charming Old Town, where you can wander through narrow streets, hop between incredible pintxos bars, and soak up the buzzing atmosphere.
We also love Gros, a more local and edgy neighborhood known for its surf scene, cool cafés, and vibrant energy. Both are great places to stay if you want to be close to the heart of the city.
We've handpicked a selection of hotels across different price points and locations throughout San Sebastián. We know everyone has different accommodation needs, so if none of these options quite fit, we recommend looking for places within walking distance of the Old Town.
Our favourite platforms for booking are Booking.com, Mr. & Mrs. Smith, and Airbnb. And of course, if you need any help finding the right place, we’re more than happy to assist!
We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
