Fine hotel to enjoy San Sebastián at its best!
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Barceló Costa Vasca. Everything was as one could expect from a high-end hotel chain. We did not get to try its restaurants, but we would anticipate that they were just fine. This facility was well situated in a quiet area, yet within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, and the beach.
