Our stay
Very nice hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. A little expensive, but too much so. The sea view room had a view of the sea, but not much of one.

Beautiful hotel
We loved our stay at the Catalonia Donosti. It was a beautiful and comfortable hotel with a good location near the center with convenient, wide parking and exceptional views from the roof terrace. The staff were all very friendly, welcoming and hospitable. The only thing that was not really up to par was that the WiFi speed slows down greatly in the evening, and because we work online in the evening, it was very difficult for us to send emails at that time. It could be improved with a connection to fiber optic instead of what seems to be a DSL connection. We stayed in many hotels during this trip, and this one was one of the most beautiful and luxurious, but it also did have the slowest WiFi of them all (during the evening). We would stay here again when on vacation and not needing to work.

Great location, wonderful amenities
Just enjoyed a nice 5 night stay here with my wife and mother. Rooms were wonderful and the location was excellent. The elevator down to street level was a really great idea. Neat being in a brand new hotel built on top of an old convent.

A winner
Wonderful building, reception/welcome was good. Jordie was extremely helpful with the quirkiness of getting into the old town and on where to find Pintxo. All were good but one bar was excellent. Room was great, clean spacious and unique. Great hotel.

Nice Hotel
Stay was nice….room was nice (not as nice as Abaso). The woman at the front desk was very nice… I enjoyed the sauna/spa but was not happy to be charged for it….esp considering the room rate…

A gem of a place
Our stay here was excellent and the staff couldn’t do enough for you. The hotel is very central and within walking distance for all our needs. The big bed and bowls were a welcome surprise for our pooch.
SHARON CLARK CLARK03-11-21
Lovely quirky room…
…in this sparkling shiny new hotel up on top of the town. I had a shower in a tower, room 506, very comfortable bed and a door onto a tiny but much appreciated balcony, so difficult to get fresh air in so many other hotels. All the staff were friendly and efficient, room service and cleaning were excellent. I didn’t try the rooftop pool or spa facilities. Breakfast excellent with a huge choice, very well supervised. I hope to return…

Beautiful hotel, great views and lovely staff
We stayed for two nights and absolutely loved this place. The location is excellent (use the lift to the street,) the staff were very friendly - especially loved the Porter and the lady watching the pool on the 26th sept! The views from the pool and rooms are flawless. The breakfast is one of the better buffets I have been and I travel very frequently. The hotel decor is beautiful, it is styled and very fresh. Loved this place and will be back!
SARAH NATALIE STEPHENS02-10-21
Wonderful hotel in San Sebastián !
The Catalonia Hotel is so nice and the staff is very friendly. My daughter and I enjoyed our time staying there for a week. I will stay there again the next time I visit Spain. Also, the food was delicious. The pool is beautiful, also.

Nice Rooms and Amenities
Liked the hotel, although from the outside it is not so inviting as the non-functional facade is advertised online, and the back is surprisingly different when first time arriving. Location is great and the views are easily one of the best from the hotels in the city. The room (Suite) was really great, with lots of space, and a wonderful shower. Amenities are covering every possible needs. Food was good. The breakfast options were pretty much amazing, with quality items. Not too impressed about the restaurant though (only had lunch), but we were spoiled eating out mot of the time. There are wide parking spaces as well in the garage, which was a very pleasant surprise, however parking was quite expensive. The pool area is the one we thought could be way better executed (very little space, no open air bar and no options for cocktails to relax wit views after a long day of exploration) The water had arctic qualities which is a shame if you travel with younger kids, it would be nice to have warm pool which is larger than 3 bathtubs. If you like to drink something other than wine your options are a bit limited and only restricted to the bar downstairs. Owerall a nice experience, it shows this is a brand new establishment and once the initial quirks and issues are handled it will definately prove itself to be a great destination.
