About

Hotel Avenida

Hotel Avenida sits on the hillside of Mount Igueldo, one of the two peaks framing San Sebastian's bay. The 3-star property offers 72 rooms with a modern, minimalist design, most featuring views over the city or the sea. The location is quiet and green, yet within reach of the old town via a scenic coastal promenade.

The hotel is well-equipped for a comfortable stay: a seasonal outdoor pool with sun terrace, a fitness centre, and a buffet breakfast praised for its variety and fresh orange juice. Guests can also use the free parking and EV charging station, a rare convenience in this busy resort area.

“Exceptionally clean with modern design and splendid views. Unbeatable location, short walk to a hill overlooking the old town, and helpful staff gave great advice.”

8.7Verified guest

“Interesting location for walkers, on the slope of one of the two mountains at the tip of the bay. Far from the Old Town (about 3 km along the promenade), but the walk is a pleasure. Good breakfasts, no restaurant, so lunch and dinner are in the bay. Nearest restaurants near the promenade end; a large supermarket is 7-10 minutes away. Free parking and a beautiful castle-like building nearby. Great local vermouth discovered this trip.”
