Our stay in Axel Hotel San Sebastián was great! The hotel is located in a quiet area closeby to many cafes and shops and at short walking distance to the beach. The hotel's premises were clean and modern, and we had a spacious and comfortable room. We loved the spa access included during our stay, which was an amazing added value to our holidays. We would definitley repeat!

Nice relaxed and relatively sophisticated place. Was concerned could be a bit seedy but quite the opposite. Nice breakfast. Parking on site for 25 euros a night if space available. Close to centre and nice spa area free to use. We also liked the room layout

Liked: Cleanliness
The property inside was clean and nice. The room was an odd shape and there wasn't much space in the bathroom to keep your toiletries. There wasn't a closet and the hangers overhung the two small drawers and fridge. Just an odd configuration and not very convenient.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff was friendly and the decor and facilities looked to be in good shape. Unfortunately, our room had a foul smell coming from the shower (which also was prone to flooding). We had arrived too late in the evening and left the following morning, so only told the staff about it when checking out, so don't know if/how this has been resolved.

The facilities are very nice and most staff are extremely helpful. Rooms are well kept. I enjoyed my stay. The rooftop is very nice but the pool is not for swimming and is unheated. If you are looking for a pool to get your laps in then you will be unhappy. But if you just need to chill and soak, it is perfect and often there is a self-srrve sparkling wine bottle on deck. The gym and sauna facilities are noce. You have long (15-20) min walks to old town or Gros but minutes from a nice river walk and the bridges. Parking is limited so call try to book early and call the night before. If parking is full, there is a parking lot around the corner that you can book with the Telpark app and the staff can help you with that. The parking lot is a two minute walk but a 10 to 15 min drive in traffic.

Checkin was a little slow, too many arrivals and not enough staff. Gym is great, but towels are missing as is cleaning spray. Room was very good - big and well appointed. Roof top pool and loungers could have been better - messy and a bit chaotic. Overall a very good place, and within 20minutes walk of all major interest spots.

Great hotel with a spa
What a great hotel, and super value. The staff could not have been friendlier, and all had excellent English. We really enjoyed the spa facilities; they were a fabulous way to relax. The rooms were clean and intriguingly arranged; ours had a quasi-separate showering and dressing area, which we enjoyed. The hotel is right next to the lively Plaza Easo with its eateries and cultural events, and about a 10-minute walk from the Cathedral. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Great stay!
Great hotel. I only have 2 complaints. The pillows are horrible. PLEASE replace them. Also, I find it weird that you have to make reservations for the indoor whirlpool. It wasn't difficult to get one, but it's strange.

Hotel is fairly new. Had issues with cold water, that issue was resolved. The hotel called a cab and within minutes they arrived. On arrival the we received an upgraded room to help accommodate our luggage.(Sweet) On the morning of our departure the front desk made a breakfast bag for us to take on our early flight!!!!!
