We booked this hotel using our Tesco Clubcard vouchers, as they have an offer whereby you can exchange the vouchers for 3 times their value with Barcelo hotels. We have also taken advantage of this offer in Sevilla and found the hotel there to be great! The Barcelo Costa Vasca is located outside of the main tourist part of San... More

Stayed here in March 2013 for the European Indoors Masters Championships. My husband was racing at event, so I spent most of a whole day alone here, while he did all his registration stuff... Overall, very good hotel, helpful staff at reception and desk, but it is difficult to find somebody in the bar/cafe area during the day when it... More

We stayed at Barcelo Costa Vasca at the end of 2011 for 4 nights. The stay was very comfortable but a little far from the main (old) town. The service however was quite good, and the staff very helpful and friendly. Things to consider: -There is a bus stop in front of the hotel for convenience but the schedule is... More

A good business hotel but the location is a bit “off” especially if you want to enjoy the pinchos in the old part of the city. Still the central part is on taxi distance. Stayed at the 7th floor and had a balcony which was nice so being there during spring/summer/fall is probably better then January ;-) From my balcony... More

Modern hotel in a residential area of San Sebastian. Probably about 20min walk to the old town, which with the frequent rain was not an option at this time. Rooms are quite modern, bathroom not so (seems like they didn't get refurbished when the room was done), water pressure in shower a disaster, very nice breakfast. I had dinner one... More

Fairly modern looking hotel with decent rooms and fantastic showers. We had a few problems that were quickly and happily resolved. The hotel is about a 20min walk from the old town where most of the food places are. It's a nice walk for the most part but uphill on the way back. The Spanish breakfast was really good! It's...

Good hotel with all the basics in order. The rooms are quite spaciouss and were clean. The staff was very friendly, the breakfast was rather good, and also the food in the restaurant was proven to be good and reasonably priced. The pool was great for children, but other than that there was really nothing for kids. The location was... More

Our travel agent selected this hotel for our first trip to San Sabastian. It is a nice hotel. The staff was very helpful and the room was comfortably large. Breakfast was included and it was outstanding. The hotel is in what appeared to be a area of condominiums and homes. The draw back for us was the locaton, which is... More
