Room was very clean and bed was enormous and comfortable. The shower was good, and it was nice to have a balcony although it didn't have a sea view Breakfast choices were good. Outdoor pool was open, although very cold and you could get a drink at a poolside van area, but the snacks advertised were not available which was disappointing as we had to leave pool and go into town for lunch. We had dinner in hotel one evening as had very good reviews, the food was ok but the service was terrible. We asked for a wine menu, was told didn't have one. Ordered drinks which didn't come, then ordered from another waiter,which came just as we were finishing our meal. Not what we expected. They seemed more concerned with a large party that was dining in outdoor covered area than guests in restaurant. Otherwise, a great base for a stay in the area. We parked on street for less than €4 a day and walked in and out of town, although buses stop right outside hotel .

The property was nice. But we booked it primarily to have a great pool to use. But the pool was very cold and the water is not heated in any way especially when the temperatures in San Sebastian are not that hot. The ocean water is much better and comfortable vs. the pool. Lack of easy grab and go food options in the morning as well.

Great shower comfy bed. For 300 euros we got a view of the embankment, instant coffee and a noisy aircon for a sleepless night. Comfy bed to listen to the aircon

Location is excellent - short walk to beach and on main bus route to town centre. Nice and quiet . Standout feature is the large pool and area around it - gets sun all day - has a bar that serves great sangria and a great area to relax . 2 points prevented this being a 5 star rating 1. The triple deluxe room that we booked turned out to be a standard double with a sofa bed- not the room shown on the booking site and lacking adequate space for 3 adults . This misreprrsentation should be corrected on the booking site. 2. Pool area didn't open until 10.00am - too late for a nice pre- breakfast swim.

Really did not enjoy our stay here. We had booked a king bed and received twins with no option to switch. The hotel was very hot and the ac didn’t work. The blow dryer was hanging out of the wall plate with wires dangling everywhere.

Reasonable hotel, but poor VFM & poor location.
We are on a trip around central and northern Spain. This hotel was the most expensive nightly rate on our trip (400 euro per night). The reception welcome was very poor with no information about breakfast, pool usage or local area. The room was a nice size and fairly clean, although sink towel rail was hanging off and shower screen mouldy. Not really what we expect of a room at this price point. Bar & restaurant staff were very friendly and restaurant/bar prices were very reasonable. Pool area & pool was great, although the towel service not clear initially due to voucher system, which again was not explained at check in. Hotel location not great for access to central San Sebastián as 30 min walk or 10 mins in a taxi.

Our second visit which says it all really. Only complaint this time is there were not enough sun beds around the pool. Lots of space to put more out but not enough to go around. Guests having to sit or lie on the ground. Not really acceptable for this quality of hotel. Invest in more sun beds please Barcelo.

Loved this hotel. Top notch gym and spa under the hotel. Privately owned so had to pay 8€ for gym and 20€ for gym and spa. Perfect for a rainy day. Chose a room with a balcony. Lovely addition. Top notch breakfast. The only negative was diner at the hotel. Compared to all the incredible restaurants in the area it was disappointing. Walk to the old city was about 20mn and has wonderful views. Used the 16 bus also. Cheap and convenient. Bought a Mugi card from the Mugi office for greater discounts on buse travel. Will return to this Barceló!

New but with many problems
I came to stay for a week. The check-in was long and drawn out, but housekeeping was doing the best they could. Thirty minutes after getting my room (after a long wait), as I am laying on my bed talking on the phone, a male employee enters my room without notice, and continues past my suitcases to restock the mini-fridge. It scared me terribly & he wasn’t very apologetic. At Barcelo, there are no extras in the lobby or reception like other hotels. The gym is an extra charge. No coffee is offered in the lobby. Breakfast is extra. This hotel is on the newer side but there are no dialing instructions on the phone, the secondary lock on the door didn’t work when I tried it after the privacy invasion. This location is fine if you are with a group or with family, but far from all the central activities if you don’t have a car. Not many restaurant or other service options nearby. It is located in a residential area. Loud slamming doors. Thin walls so you can hear snoring in the next room. I stay 70-90 nights a year in hotels. I regretted booking this hotel.
