“Nice Visit”

Hotel staff very helpful and friendly. Spoke very good English. Location is good if you are planning to travel by bus to surrounding cities (which we did). It worked out great. Hotel is located literally next to bus station and at times, we could hear buses and/or cars honking their horns. About 25-30 minute walk to where we hung out most - beaches, Old Town and La Brexta. So if you don't like to walk, you need a taxi (about 5.65 euros one way) to take you toward beach, etc., and this would not be the hotel for you. You would need one closer to beaches; however, price was good. Overall, if I visited San Sebastian again, I would not hesitate to stay at this hotel.

Area recommendations
Old Town - best pinxcho bars / restaurants and souvenir shops. Close to beaches and shopping and people watching.
Getting around
Buses are easy if you want to visit surrounding cities or get around town. Taxis are convenient, but from what I saw and experienced, the most common form of travel is walking. (Lots of walking)
Other
Do your homework before visiting to find out what you want to see and visit. Tours are very minimal. We visited tourism office 3X in 8 days to inquire about city bus tour. Each time they said the bus was not running because of "technical difficulties" and they did not know if or when the bus would run.

“If Your Going to San Sebastian then go to the AMARA PLAZA!”

The Amara Plaza was a great surprise when arriving. Booking the hotel virtually blind, I really didn't know what to expect. First of all, NO ONE speaks English is San Sebastian but when your say AMARA PLAZA, everyone in the city can point the way. Good to know if you don't speak Spanish!! The hotel employees were fluent in English and extremely helpful when asking directions, calling taxis and recommending restaurants. Parking is on site and inexpensive at 15 euro for 24 hrs. The room was not the stereotypical Europe style room. A nice king bed with plently of room, closet space and a nice bathroom area. In house cappucino machine on floor, piano bar, restaurant and cafeteria. It was GREAT! Located just minutes from everything in San Sebastian. We loved it and would stronly recommend it to anyone going to San Sebastian. If your planning to run with the bulls in Pamplona, Like me, Stay at the Amara Plaza and take the 1 hour drive into and out of Pamplona. NO NEED TO STAY IN PAMPLONA you will be dissapointed. Also, located right next to main bus terminal if you are traveling by bus. My wife and I give it a 10!

Area recommendations
You must go to the Beach. Sit at LaPerla rest and sip Sangria and enjoy the water. Just a short walk to the mountain top of Funnichela. A cable ride up with unbelievable site of city. Another short walk to the "Old City" known to the cabbies as the "boulevard". Here you will experience the ultimate Tapas style food and eat things you never thought you would. Walking through the Old Town, visiting Tapas bars and seeing old churches on cobblestone streets gives you the Old Spain feeling. A glass of wine for $1.50 euro at any restuarant. You will love it.
When to go
Learn to speak Spanish. This is the real deal and knowledge of the language will help you alot.

“Awesome Hotel!”

Great Hotel...10 minute walk from the old town...great restaurant/tapas bar and piano bar connected to hotel. Nice for a drink after a day of touring the old town and eating the tapas! Also it is right next to the bus station so its convenient for getting to your next location. Staff was friendly and very accommodating!

Area recommendations
Old Town...great bars and food! Definitely check this place out!
Dining
Eat at the local bars and go from one to the other tasting all the different pinchas/tapas! No need for a sit down dinner...you can get stuffed navigating your way from bar to bar trying all the different cuisines!

“Great hotel, but one huge downside”

You have a 50/50 chance of staying in a nice hotel. One side has a bus station equal to a US greyhound station, busses honking like they were taxi drivers in NYC. They dont stop all night, or early in the morning. It is hard to fault the hotel, but it makes for an impossible good night's sleep. I read a review of this hotel where someone else complained about the busses, but it is tons worse then they made out. Hotel is very nice. Rooms were better then I expected, and the room service was the fastest I have ever seen. The hotel desk was knew english and was helpful.

Area recommendations
Up the coast toward Bilboa, great place to walk, bike, or take a slow ride.
