Best Hotels in San Sebastian

Who would have guessed that luxury could exist in such a quaint destination as the seaside city of San Sebastian? According to recent guests of the Hotel Maria Cristina, you'll find that and so much more. The grandeur of this property is immediately evident before stepping through its front doors. The hotel takes up an entire street block and illuminates the waters it towers over when its golden facade is lit up at night. Rooms are equally eye-catching but more subdued: Expect crisp white linens backed by tufted headboards, sleek wood furnishings and glass chandeliers, as well as 40-inch Samsung TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi and marble bathrooms with deep soaking tubs. Outside of the rooms, guests can take advantage of the on-site fitness and business center, a 24-hour concierge and multiple dining options (the food at which was a favorite of recent guests). But what stuck in travelers' minds the most was the staff's incredible service and the hotel's unbeatable location – guests have just a short walk to the beach. And because this hotel is part of the Marriott hotel family, Marriott Bonvoy members can earn and use points here.
