Reviews for Pensión Aldamar

Review 1:Nothing - we loved everything

Review 2:The location is perfect. It is right in the middle of the new and old towns. A few minutes walk to the promenade and the view of the Civic Centre and fountains from our rooms was lovely.

Review 3:The location of the hotel is at the corner of the old town, which gives you access to the awesome bars without it being too noisy. And the beach is just a short walk away. Rooms are not huge but they are comfortable. Liked the pantry area equipped with coffee machine and hot water. Excellent place to stay!

Review 4:The lack of sound proof wall, we could hear the tv of the room at the end of the corridor. The price is a bit high for the standard of the hotel.

Review 5:The staff was nice upon arrival and very welcoming. The location excellent.

Review 6:Very small hotel room but then this is Europe.

Review 7:Great location. Close to everything. Nice hotel in a beautiful building. And, San Sebastian is so lovely!

Review 8:Room was a little on the small size, but not out of keeping with European standards!

Review 9:Fantastic location in the heart of San Sebastian. Clean, modern facilities, very helpful staff.

Review 10:After check-in I saw staff on reception only once or twice during the week, however they left their telephone number. A bit noisy during the night - not good soundproof from the street and other rooms.

Review 11:Excellent location: a lot of shops, bars, restaurants neaby, main sightseeing is close. Clean room, nice decor. Friendly and helpful staff. Free bottled water and coffee, tea.

Review 12:There was no reception the rest of the stay (3 days). We never saw a person at the desk again and when we called the phone number for operator no one answered.

Review 13:Great location and help with recommendations when we arrived

Review 14:It is in the centre of old town, close to the beach, lots of restaurants. the staff can recommend a parking lot.location is very good.they have public coffee machine.

Review 15:Nothing

Review 16:Everything. The location, the room itself which was exactly as described in Booking.com, the view from the room, the cleanliness, the free tea and coffee making facilities, the free wifi. But most of all the friendly welcome we received from Roberto on our very late arrival and the entire staffs continuing friendlines. This establishment should be put up as an example on how to keep your clients happy. Also the free walking tour that Roberto recommended led by our wonderful guide Irati. We will return.

Review 17:Tiny room, miniscule bathroom, and the bed wasn't the most comfortable, but it was all well maintained and modern

Review 18:The location and cleanliness of this Pension couldn't have been any better!

Review 19:The staff was never there, even though they said they would be there between 9am and 8 pm. However, they were there when I arrived, and were pleasant. Noise form the street does not bother (good isolation), however, from the neighbouring rooms the sound travel very easily.

Review 20:Location, cleanliness, good standard.

Review 21:Great location near restaurants and ocean. Though rooms are small, they are clean modern and very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be staying there again in the future.

Review 22:It was just very simple. Not good or bad. Just simple.

Review 23:The location and the staff could not have been any better. The office attendant told us all the best pinxto bars to eat at and what foods to try. It was amazing.

Review 24:Excellent location and clean, modern room. Wifi worked really well. Highlight was the amazing customer service from all of the staff. They were so helpful in giving us advice and tips. They gave us a great impression of San Sebastián. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Review 25:The hotel is 5 minutes walk from some of the best tapas bars and restaurants in the old town. Our room was spotlessly clean and had an excellent shower. We would definitely stay again. Don't be put off by the fact there is no downstairs reception. You'll be delighted when you get to the first floor.

Review 26:After a friendly welcome we never saw staff again. Room is more cramped than we expected.

Review 27:The location is ideal in the old town, close to tapas bars and shops and between the two main beaches of San Sebastian.

Review 28:They did leave someone's half finished coke can in our mini bar for a couple of days which I found more amusing than anything else.

Review 29:Very modern and minimalist with no frills or aged bumf that other hotels in this price range seem to enjoy. So close to the old town but not right in the thick of it and with a great little balcony that was great for people watching. The little shop next door was bang on for a bottle of wine and nibbles after a hard day in the tapas bars!!

Review 30:The staff were really friendly and gave us excellent recommendations of some of the best bars to go to. The location is perfect and surprisingly it isn't noisy at all. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Aldamar!

Review 31:The assigned car park was quite far from the pension when it seemed there were some closer by, other than that it was the perfect place to stay.

Review 32:Great location, right on the corner of old town so two minutes walk from the best pintxo bars but away from the hustle and bustle. The room was modern and light and spacious but we got one of the more expensive ones.

Review 33:Bit noisy at night. Bathrooms need a good scrub!

Review 34:Staff, rooms and location. Close to everything. Restaurants, Hop on hop off bus, sea and seafood restaurants.

Review 35:Brilliant stay - great location, clean, comfortable and well-thought-out rooms with everything we needed. Helpful staff and great value. Highly recommended!

Review 36:Lovely Pension in a very central location in the Old Town of San Sebastian. Recently refurbished - brand new bathrooms and bedroom decor. Highly recommended.

Review 37:This was the perfect place to stay for us. Just outside of the Old Town. Perfect distance to be very close to pinxtos but far enough away that it was quiet. Beach was no more than a 5-10 minute walk. The most surprising part of this hotel was how big our room was by European standards. We rented the Junior Suite, and what we got for the money far exceeded our expectations. Everything was very clean and the staff was very helpful. If we ever get the chance to return to Donostia-San Sebastian, we will not hesitate to stay here again. A++++

Review 38:Location was excellent 2 minute walk from the great selection of pinxchos bars and shops. The beautiful clean beaches are easily walkable and an ideal opportunity to walk along the promenade.

Review 39:The location on the edge of the old town was great as you were able walk everywhere. The staff were very helpful and the facility to make tea or coffee was most welcome. Breakfast was at a delightful cafe around the corner good rate from the Pension.

Review 40:The "neighbours@ sounded like they were in the same room as us, street noise no problem but heard everything from next door.

Review 41:Located in the perfect spot, close to the old town and all of the pinxtos bars, a short stroll to the surf beach and the main beach at La Concha.

Review 42:The location is perfect in the old town with great pintxos near by, easy to get around town. Try to get the junior suite for a little more room. Very clean though bathroom small and safe key did not work.

Review 43:- no free parking - we stayed at a junior suit, which was lovely but a standard room might be small. I would suggest checking it with the pension.

Review 44:+location +facilities

Review 45:Little difficulty finding Pension.

Review 46:V. Friendly welcome and Josu had great English and helped us with booking our Bus to Airport and also print out our return Flight ticket with such ease and patience. Thank You Josu. It very Central.

Review 47:My credit card was charged the day after I booked it without my knowledge, despite Booking.com's policy of 'pay when you stay'. This was quite inconvenient as I am charged currency fees and interest with my card. To avoid this I intended to pay by cash. I think the hotel should have confirmed prior to charging my card.

Review 48:Good location, quiet and comfortable.

Review 49:the room we had was excellent. it had all that we required plus two balcony doors to watch the world go by all in all a great hotel in a prime location can,t wait to go back San Sebastian is fantastic

Review 50:Pension Aldamar was a perfect choice: location is great just in between the old city and the modern part of S.S . The stuff was friendly and the rooms are specious and clean. we had a room with a balcony which makes a big difference. I'm recommending the Pension !
