Villa Soro

One of the BEST hotels we have stayed in all our trips||Rooms are huge, clean and well kept! Hotel premises are well maintained. It’s a 20minute walk to San Sebastien city center and the old town.||Staffs are friendly, must definitely have their breakfast with a Spanish omelette. Highly recommend to stay at villa soro if you are travelling here. Keep it up

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay. The property is quite a unique style. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was very spacious and elegant. We found the location convenient for walking to the town. Would certainly stay again.

Last week I stayed at Villa Soro and what can I say - it was a delightful experience! The kindest staff, great breakfast and clean and comfy rooms. It‘s only a 15 mins walk into town/to the closest beach which was very convenient. I highly recommend taking one of their complimentary bikes and discover the city. A great stay! I will definitely be back.

This hotel is exceptional! From the time of check in to when we left, the staff was world class and on point. The rooms were very clean and cozy. The location was ideal for us, it was a beautiful walk into the city center. They do provide bicycles for their guests, which we will definitely use on next visit.

We loved everything about this hotel! From the moment we walked in John, one of the concierges, was kind and helpful and made us truly feel welcome! ||All of the staff was kind and helpful, the food was amazing at the in house restaurant and the location was delightful. Also the Argentinian guy at the bar whose name I didn’t catch was fantastic - super friendly and funny and very patient with me as I got back into the rhythm of speaking Spanish. ||The hotel is situated just outside the main downtown area on a big well lit main road so you got the best of accessibility and quiet. It took about 15-20 min walking to get to the ocean and the amazing cafe John recommended up (Simona) and the amazing views of the water, and maybe another 5-10 minutes to get to the old town - where most of the tourist attractions, restaurants and shopping were. ||Our 2nd floor room was gorgeous, our windows looked out over the quiet little courtyard between buildings in the hotel and included both a dining table and a small desk making it super convenient for my wife and I to both be able to check in on work without compromising comfort or luxury. ||This is our new favorite hotel in the world, we are already planning a trip back for Q2 2025!

The idea was to spend a couple of days and enjoy everything San Sebastian has to offer.||This beautiful and full of personality hotel feels like home. From the great welcome to the daily service from every single team member (you can see they take pride in what they do).||||The breakfast was great and if I might, I will recommend to have a nice dinner with them (uncomplicated and amazing menu) and dont forget to try the Gildas!.||||In resume, a beautiful designed house with great rooms and hospitality which also happens to be very well located.||||I will be back!

This is a high end boutique hotel which is priced as such. Although situated on one of the main roads into San Sebastian it is very quiet. You can walk into the town but it would take around 25 minutes for the beach and 40 mins for the old town. The rooms are superb, extremely stylish and a pleasure to stay in.

The bathroom was fantastic with|Diptique toiletries, I am told by my wife that these are both expensive and excellent!!!|The shower was terrific. |The gym is well equipped although small.|The Hotel is decorated with art work which enhances the existing high standard of fittings and finish creating a lovely relaxing atmosphere.

Lovely staff and reception areas. Beds extremely comfortable and lovely turn down service. I booked superior room and it was down in the basement with no sunlight at all on the mini terrace which wasn’t clear from the website. Appears to have grounds in the photos which isn’t the case in reality.

Beautiful privately gated boutique hotel that gives the feeling of being in the country side while in the heart of San Sebastián. It was about a 20 minute walk or 5 minute taxi ride to the center of town. The building, British in style, was built as a family home in the 19th century and forms part of the Historical Heritage of the City of San Sebastián. The hotel keeps the spirit of the period intact, with its large lounges, high ceilings, fireplaces, and a carved wooden staircase. The 25 room villa really felt more like a home than a hotel. We stayed in room 24 which had a charming window with a beautiful garden view. The room was spacious, laden with dark wood which added to the sense of being in a luxurious country side home. Our room on the 2nd floor opened to a beautiful foyer with a huge overhead skylight that allowed natural lighting to flow in. There was an elevator but we only used it twice to bring luggage up and down. Otherwise we chose to use the beautiful carved wooden staircase to immerse ourselves in the essence of the hotel. The restaurant/bar, Eguzki Soro, had the appearance of a country side British bar. Breakfast came with the room and was served there. There was a small menu for lunch and dinner. Outside dining also available. Wonderful staff who helped us with directions and recommendations for places to eat. Big shout out to JM in the bar and Virginia and John at the front desk for going out of their way to give us directions and some gems that we wouldn't have discovered on our own. We would love to stay there again on our next visit. Happy Travels!!

I'm going to start with the downside, because I missed that before booking and it's important. This lovely boutique hotel is pretty far from Old Town. They say it's a 20 minute walk. I didn't time it, but I definitely think it was farther--at least 30 and I'm a very fast walker. And not super fun in the rain. (And it does rain here--a lot). It's not in a very convenient location. That said, they do have complimentary bikes, and it took about 10 minutes to ride to Old Town (ride on the sidewalk until you can pick up the bike path). We took the bikes all over, really, which was really helpful in exploring some of the spots farther away. (Though be warned--these are beach cruisers--no gears!) They also provide locks, and you can keep the bikes out all day. You can also take a bus for around 2 Euros into town, though bus service at night is infrequent. For example, when we left dinner one night at 10:30pm and walked 10 min to the bus stop, it said that the next number 14 bus would come at 11:21pm. Maybe we could have taken a different bus, but it was hard to figure out. So we wound up walking back--maybe about a mile and a half in total? Here's the upside. The lobby and sitting room off the lobby is lovely. We sat and had a glass of wine and olives and had great conversation with some of the other guests. The beds are comfortable, and the bathrooms beautiful, stocked with Molton Brown bath products. Since the water in San Sebastián isn't safe for Americans to drink, they give a few complimentary bottles of bottled water. The service is wonderful--the staff really goes out of their way to make you feel at home. Breakfast is very complete and very good. And served in a beautiful room. If I return to San Sebastián, the only way I would stay here again is if they offered complimentary rides for guests to and from Old Town. That's all that's missing to make this a 5-star experience. Otherwise I would choose a place in Old Town to make it easy to get to all the restaurants, shopping, beach, museum, etc... Oh, and if you do decide to book, request a room in the main house. Apparently they're more charming.

We enjoyed our short time at this hotel. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. The staff was very good and made sure our time there was very comfortable. The location of the hotel is a short distance from the center of town. It could be considered a long walk but we knew this prior to booking. We took a cab to the main area and then slowly walked back to the hotel over many hours. There was plenty to see and do we had a great time. I would recommend this hotel and would also book again if we make it back to the area.

Superb small hotel a 15-minute walk outside of the main part of San Sebastian. Very comfortable, bright rooms and huge sparkling bathrooms paved in white marble and festooned with all the goodies including a hand-held shower, a bidet and excellent bath products. Breakfast was quite good and was served in a pleasant garden room. A very nice stay.

Absolutely exquisite in every way. This is a wonderful luxury, boutique property that offers the service and amenities of a large, world class resort. It is a beautiful villa with full food, bar and spa services, and free on site parking. The building is in perfect, modern condition and the entire staff is attentive to every guest. The property is slightly removed (about 1 km) from the central district, but it's worth it to stay in such a nice place.

Excellent value for this boutique hotel. The hotel is small, charming and hits all of the right features I prefer in a hotel. The room was clean and had the correct amenities. The staff was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We enjoyed breakfast each morning and found that the food was well prepared with a large enough variety to meet most needs but also not excessive. It was a quality continental breakfast with eggs and such as required. Overall I would have given this a five star rating had the location been closer to town. While not too far out it still was an 18 Euro round trip cab ride. I think the hotel offers excellent relative value and would highly recommend staying there. If we were to return to San Sebastián I know I will stay here again.
