About

Hotel Ilunion San Sebastian

Hotel Ilunion San Sebastian sits in the Antiguo neighbourhood, a residential area that offers a more local feel than the city centre. Ondarreta Beach is about a five-minute walk away, and the old town is roughly a 20-minute walk along the seafront.

The hotel is geared towards comfort and practicality: soundproofed rooms, a 24-hour reception, and a restaurant that serves breakfast and evening meals. Parking is available on site, which is a genuine asset in a city where street parking can be scarce.
