Modern hotel, fine location close to the local beach - clean, friendly with smiling staff. Good breakfast buffet - GOOD value for money! And: parking right in front of hotel - at least for the first 20 mins...

A convenient and well appointed hotel for a 2-night stay - clean and well set up rooms with helpful reception staff. I did not request a quiet room on the first night and thus had a disturbed night due to traffic on the busy route into the city. Staff were very helpful in arranging a move to a much quieter room at the rear of the hotel so I was able to catch up.. Breakfast in the basement restaurant area was excellent - pineapple juice, yogurt, tortilla, very good fresh fruit, scrambled egg - all very good quality in a clean neat room. Good ground coffee too from a self-service machine. The hotel is well-plcaed to get to the seafront for the long promenade or for the Monte Igeldo funicular which was great fun. Excellent views from the top. It is a little far from the old town where the best tapas/pintxo bars are found, but a very good hotel.

The room (203) was not cooling down the room (the night was unpleasantly hot); the outside window curtain was stocked open (we could not closed, so the room was lighted with the street lighting all night). The very best was Laura, the front desk staff. Outstanding service, supportive and friendly. She went beyond her duty to make our stay as better as possible. My wife fractured a foot just before checkin-in at the hotel. She took care of us like a family member, supported and guided us to a doctor and to the hospital, later us provided us with anything we might need to make my wife be comfortable. Outstanding employee and human being, she made the difference.

We were both very impressed with the hotel overall. Our room was spacious with a fantastic view of the sea. The staff were helpful and friendly. I would like to highlight one particular member of the reception staff, Laura, who went out of her way to help us. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She made our stay even more special. The buses run frequently from outside the hotel, but also it is within walking distance of all the tourist attractions. We would recommend this hotel and will certainly come back again.

Horrible experience with Codina Sercota Hotel. I miss the cancellation date by one day. We had to cancel our trip to San Sebastian because of 2 friends tested covid positive on the Thursday morning. (Our night was scheduled the following Saturday). Despite the fact that they rebook the room they refused to refund us (400€). So they booked the room twice. They explained to me that it was because I booked the room via booking.com which a lie as booking.com let the decision to the hotel. I strongly advise not to stay with them during your stay in San Sebastian. There are plenty of honest hosts in San Sebastian that will make your stay wortg it

Dear JB75018 First of all, thank you for the time you have taken to fill out our satisfaction questionnaire. The opinion of our guests is our best reference for improvement and that is why your comment is of great value to us. We take this opportunity to let you know our regret for the health incident of your friends, who decided not to travel, even though it was not prohibited (as had been the case years ago). To avoid situations like this, there are reservation modalities such as the so-called "flexible" ones, which allow you to cancel up to 24 hours before without expenses, that is, in this type of reservations you have to be willing to pay a slight supplement (like some flights´ reservations , where this type of rates also have an extra cost). There was no case, our establishment acted in bad faith or was dishonest with you, the only thing it did was apply the conditions of your reservation, neither more nor less, based on your previous choice. Regretting once again your bad experience with us. Receive my most cordial greetings, Elena Olmo. General Manager

Nice (clean, quiet, and friendly) hotel with air conditioning and very comfy beds in a great location for walking around town. It's great that they accept dogs, although the pet fee is higher than average.

We enjoyed our stay here: we had interconnecting rooms with very effective shutters and double-glazing keeping out the noise snd light from the street. It’s a few steps away from a lovely beach (they have beach towels, for a returnable deposit) and not far from the funicular. The Old Town is a lovely half hour walk away along the Concha: maybe pack an umbrella - we got caught out by sudden downpours. Breakfast was plentiful and varied: lots of fruit and cakes. A parallel street has some nice neighbourhood bars and cafes. We got the best price on the hotel’s own website, which front very hood value for summer. If this kind of thing is important to you, there don’t appear to be any public areas or places to sit beyond the bedrooms. Staff were friendly and helpful

Very nice hotel, the staff fantastic could not help you enough, good location right next to a bus stop that you could go anywhere in San Sebastian The only problem was the bathroom, there is a door stop right as you stepped out of the shower, needs to be moved, the toilet paper holder needs moving as it is out of reach when you ate on the toilet, plus the radiator needs to be moved aswell, we told the staff about these problems and they say this is in hand to modify the bathroom. The last thing is my partner slipped over in the shower due to the shower tray being plastic. as soon as the shower tray was wet it became very slippery.
