Reviews for Hotel Avenida

Review 1:Too far from the old town Walking took 40 mins at least also could do better for breakfast Charged extra for dog and then would let us leave in room to go out

Review 2:Nothing

Review 3:The welcome was great, location - good car parking, very comfy room with excellent views. Easy 15 minute walk to old town along the beach front - helpful staff thank you

Review 4:Not bad for us, but hotel is on a hill a bit outside the main town, so it might not be good for someone without a car who doesn't like walking.

Review 5:Wonderful bright, spacious room overlooking the roofs of San Sebastian. Large, well-equipped bathroom. Staff friendly and helpful. Very reasonable price for the facilities. We enjoyed the walk into town along the beach promenade.

Review 6:Nice hotel with good parking(which is must when we travel) the lady on reception was helpful.the room was very well equipped and clean.breakfast was very good with plenty of choice.would certainly recommend this hotel.

Review 7:The location is not of the best but a taxi takes care of that.

Review 8:We were particularly imppressed by the man on reception who gave us a lot of help on arrival - and was there the following morning too!

Review 9:A fairly mainstream hotel with all that one would expect. Good breakfast and overall ambiance. Not hugely charming in the sense that it could be anywhere, but as formulaic hotels go it was adequate. If you want to feel San Sebastian this is not probably where to go. It has the advantage of good parking.

Review 10:No restaurant and noisy during the night. Overall it was okay but for reasons outlined not particularly good value even at San Sebastián prices for two people staying one night in October with breakfast at overall cost of almost £100

Review 11:Staff were welcoming and helpful. Nice room with a view plus a decent breakfast

Review 12:Bsthroom

Review 13:Nice hotel but little way from beach centre and old town. Terrible bathroom . Shower didn't have hob and leaked everywhere. Towels were very poor quality .

Review 14:Although a bit expensive, this was a nice hotel in a lovely setting on top of a hill with good access to the old town via public bus and taxi (only 10 euros for the return journey up the hill). The front desk was very friendly and helpful and the free parking much appreciated in busy San Sebastian.

Review 15:Mixed experiences with some of the staff and the breakfast was pretty basic for the money. We went at peak time so paid over the odds for an ok hotel. My rating is based on the price I paid for the quality received. Out of season when the prices are much lower this is probably a very reasonable place to stay

Review 16:Nice pool and hotel next to excellent restaurant. Parking very valuable.

Review 17:Front desk upon arrival gave us a list of resturants and recommended tapas we were then left to search for ourselves. There was a resturant right by the side, but we were told they were closed on Tuesday and Wednesday for two days.

Review 18:It was clean and everything in a good condition. The breakfast area was exceptionally clean, well stocked and a credit to the staff who operated it.

Review 19:Some confusion over paying for breakfast at checkout. We were over-charged. I thought they would have kept a record on whether we had a cooked breakfast or not.

Review 20:Most of the staff were very friendly and polite. Lovely hotel, very clean. I would go there again.

Review 21:There is no air conditioning in the rooms, so they can be hot and uncomfortable in the summer: this is not acceptable for the rate charged. I was charged for three breakfasts, even though I had only one (because it was mediocre). The hotel is on a steep hill: walking up from the beach or downtown to the hotel in the summer is not pleasant.

Review 22:Clean and reasonably spacious room, friendly staff, comfortable bed.

Review 23:Very good hotel, nice and helpful staff, we got a huge room that was very comfortable. five-ten minutes walk from the closest beach, a close bus station to San Sebastian center

Review 24:It's too far from city. Not an easy walk with smaller kids. Nothing in the vicinity.

Review 25:It's an ok property if you want to halt for the night. Too expensive for that though.

Review 26:The location is quite far from the main town, which was a problem for our teenage daughter, who would have preferred to be closer to the action. Very nice and peaceful for those looking for a quiet break.

Review 27:The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

Review 28:Cleaning lady forgot the bin bag on our tea table. We were the only ones to leave the premises early and the only car blocked by the breakfast staff's car. however reception staff quickly fixed it for us.

Review 29:Big room with lateral view of the Bay and town, free parking. Excellent English speaking staff+ very helpful and welcoming introduction to the area.

Review 30:Bit of a walk from the old town but we knew this . Taxi back 10 euros .

Review 31:Nice hotel . Rooms next to each other as requested . Lovely view of town and beach . Parking good . Lovely walk along the beach to the old town .

Review 32:Checking out was very slow and when using pool towels I felt mistrusted as I was taken a €20 deposit for each towell. the hotel isn't big enough to operate such strict rules, it took away the friendly feel for me. I don't need hotel towels. People take towels, it's a fact, and we know they're very cheap nowadays...

Review 33:Friendly staff, the lady in the breakfast room was very sweet and welcoming especially

Review 34:Wouldn't stay there with a dog again as we were told that we couldn't leave our dog in the room unattended and they weren't allowed in the pool area.

Review 35:The bus stop is all but outside the hotel so easy to get to and fro. Staff at reception were helpful and friendly.

Review 36:No bar or restaurant so had to leave the hotel every day to get something to eat,no hot drink facilities either.

Review 37:Couldn't fault the staff,they were so helpful all the time.

Review 38:NO BAR!! Why??? This was a 'Stop Off' Hotel for us touring Spain on our Harley-Davidson, anyone would know after riding or infact driving for the day a cool refreshing drink goes down a treat, I had to go into town to get such refreshments however, I would stay here again but collect such refreshments on the way in.

Review 39:Good location albeit up a hill, nice clean Hotel, Grand entrance lounge but wasted really as there are no facilities, parking for Harley-Davidson

Review 40:The rooms were a little cold in mid-May. We got a heating fan that helped.

Review 41:We liked everything. Servicefriendly staff,good breakfast and even a hotel pool outside. Free parken.

Review 42:The dog could only go in some areas and the internet was only available in the reception area.

Review 43:The room was great. We enjoyed the walk into town and the views.

Review 44:The room does not include electric kettle or coffee maker (vending machine available in the basement). However, in Spain you'd rather go out to one of the numerous restaurants and bars around, and have excellent coffee & fun there.

Review 45:Friendly and helpful staff, very clean, quiet, very comfortable large bed, large comfortable bathroom (with bidet), fast wifi, laptop size safe in the room, good room service, gym, hearty breakfast (with hot and cold, sausage, cheese, yogurt, pastries, juices, drinks, coffee, tee), great view from the hill top (10 min on foot, public bus route), fancy restaurant next door.

Review 46:Walk down the hill for meal is ok if you have time and want excercise. Rekondo next door is 5 star and prices to match!

Review 47:Free parking. Buffet breakfast. V pleasant staff. Views great.

Review 48:Very friendly and helpful staff. Large airy room. Fantastic views. The breakfast was better than the 4 star the previous morning. Pleasant walk down to the town and back again. Free and easy parking.

Review 49:You have to have a car as it is a bit away from the centre of the city and the beach.

Review 50:Large room very clean and in good condition. It had free car park. We enjoyed a very good continental breakfast, but it also offered full English breakfast. Lovely views. Reception staff was very good.

Review 51:Nothing that I can think of.

Review 52:The wifi was available everywhere and strong. The staff were helpful. The location was out of the centre of San Sebastián but we had a car and parking in San Sebastián was good.

Review 53:Not applicable. All positive.

Review 54:Overall all good. Very attentive and pleasant staff. Extremely clean and well maintained. Free car park is another positive.

Review 55:No breakfast/food Room lacked air con. Money for the bill deducted in advance A little inconvienient for the town centre

Review 56:Excellent free car parking Spacious room Comfortable beds

Review 57:A small bit far out from nice restaurants and the city. It can be walked. About 15mins to hit start of beach and another 20 mins to restaurants. Buses do run.

Review 58:Quiet, clean, nice breakfast, friendly staff, pool, nice restaurant next door.

Review 59:I asked to be moved from the top floor to a lower one as I was so hot and couldn't sleep. I was offered a corner small room which wasn't satisfactory. I was staying at the hotel for a week and thought it must be possible to find me another room as most people weren't staying that long. I also think you should provide tea and coffee in the rooms as these drinks are only available from a machine in the lobby which are not good. I also thought the breakfast was poor. There was no information about local restaurants and it wasn't until our 5th day someone told us where one was and this could have been provided in leaflet form in the bedrooms. Our payment for the hotel kept getting mixed up by staff.

Review 60:We liked being up the hill but the view and noise from building works spoilt our view. The room was a good size. The hotel could be better by some small improvements.

Review 61:Walk to the beach is ok (about 15 min) but to the old town about 35 min.

Review 62:Very nice staff. We had a big room with a great view over the city. Very clean and nice hotel. A place to recommend.

Review 63:The location wasn't great but we knew that when we booked and for us parking was a priority. It was about a 40 minute walk to the old town, but we didn't really mind.

Review 64:The room we were given was more like a suite, absolutely gorgeous. The staff were friendly. We didn't have breakfast or use the pool but both of these communal areas looked very nice.

Review 65:had to walk uphill to go back to the hotel.., cleaning was not very good, bath tub had dirty marks There was a building site next to the hotel which woke you up early

Review 66:nice view over San Sebastián Personal very friendly

Review 67:No bar or restaurant only vending machines. Noisy restaurant next doors which meant keeping windows closed and no air conditioning

Review 68:Swimming pool. Views

Review 69:Really hard mattress, Dated rooms, Far away from old town and centre, no air con just a fan.

Review 70:Good view from room, free parking, up a big hill so if your able bodied it's ok.

Review 71:No a/C. A hotel at a100 euros a night should have more. The roomshad a lot noise. You needed to slam the door to lock it. Each timesomeone needed close their door there was a large bang. We would hearall kinds of noise in the hotel at all times of the day or night.

Review 72:Hotel was clean. Staff very helpful. Parking at hotel.

Review 73:No tea/ coffee making facilities in the room. Noise from people next door and above .no air conditioner but fans.

Review 82:Really good hotel, quiet location, facilities good, friendly staff, small swimming pool, nice room but we only booked two days before arrival so didn't have a view.

Review 83:It was expensive but we had to go in high season. There was noise from nearby construction site but not Hotel Avenida's fault.

Review 84:We liked the staff (especially the friendly cocktails waitress), pool, the district, breakfasts, parking, attractive bedrooms and lounge.

Review 85:The air conditioning consisted of 2 fans. The towels were worn out.

Review 86:There was parking and it was quiet. There was a bus stop within a few minutes walk.

Review 87:Internet was underpowered. Food was overpriced and the alternatives required a ten minute walk down hill, and worse another one back up hill.

Review 88:View and facilities, older place with style and great location.

Review 89:Temperature of the room was stifling despite two fans and it not being particularly hot outside. No bar (vending machine selling cold drinks and Heineken).

Review 90:Rooms were clean and location good if you prefer (like us) to be a bit further out if the city.
