Parking, but hard to fault the hotel

Great location if you want to discover the old town and stumble back after dinner/drinks. Best location in the old town

Less of a hotel and more of a room than 20 years ago.

The location and quality.

Stayed in June 2024

Nothing. For noting - the centre of the old town (where the hotel is located) is on top of a small hill. Not a problem for us but others might want to be aware.

We had a beautiful small room overlooking the main square in the old town with views across the river to Hendaye beyond. It's a small intimate hotel and the couple who own it are exceptionally helpful and friendly. The rooms (and beds) are comfortable with a lift if you need it and really good air conditioning. The shower is good. The whole place is spotlessly clean. On top of that there is fabulous cafe opposite with the most divine breakfast/brunch and snack options. We loved it, and we hope to return!

Check in procedure. While received messages encouraging us to check in online, it was never mentioned that that was the only option! Because of limited wifi access I was happy to check in upon arrival but there is no one at the hotel! Wasted 1.5 hours with check in after incorrect code details were given. They should be straightforward and say, no staff on side, check in only online prior to arrival. In the short time we were there, two other parties had check in problems, standing at the front door not knowing what to do.

Location is great. Room has nice view.

Clean room with everything we needed. Excellent location within the old town of Hondarribia with easy transport links to Irun and San Sebastian. Friendly owners/staff.

Odd parts of the room, could have been a little cleaner( eh; top shelves and behind TV)

The location is magnificent, adjacent to the Parador with a better view ! ( tip: ask for a room with a balcony)… cafe/ bar down in the square opposite, and staff very quick to provide extra pillows requested. Top notch !!

There was nothing to dislike.

Everything here was fantastic. Location had a great view overlooking the main square. The staff were so friendly and nice. The cafe opposite for breakfast was wonderful. Such a charming little hotel.

This hotel is perfectly located within the old city, surrounded by many cultural highlights and not far from the main area with restaurants. Extremely friendly staff and beautiful room!

Excellent location across the plaza from the Parador and the church. You can drive to it to drop passengers and bags but there is no parking whatsoever in the old town. However the hotel has two dedicated slots in the nearest municipal carpark outside the walls. It is about 400 metres on foot, uphill, to the hotel. There are no public areas or cafe or restaurant in the hotel, it is rooms only. But across the street is a cafe which can provide breakfast and a couple of doors down is a bar which also serves simple meals. Rooms at the front overlook the plaza, those at the back look across roof tops to hills beyond. The church clock bells seem to be turned off at night, so it is quiet enough. The rooms are simple but adequate although do seem overpriced. Location, location...

Hotel San Nikolas is a lovely small, boutique hotel on a lively small square with views of the ocean. The front desk staff were terrific, suggesting restaurants, booking a taxi for us to the airport on our last day and always open to a good chat. Our room was terrific, two floors up, directly overlooking the plaza with views to the ocean. Terrific part of Hondarribia, not overflowing with we tourists, with an absolutely terrific restaurant just one street away!

Mid in town. Perfect for a - in my case, short - stay.

Weather was terrible. Had to shelter in a bar for ages 😁. What I don't like is having to write more than I want in these reviews!

Friendly reception. Informative receptionist. Great little town that's not yet gone upmarket and expensive like San Sebastian.
