"Easy walk into town, lovely room, amazing breakfast "

"One of our best hotel experiences ever! Truly unique design of this hotel, just fascinating how they have a tall tower of smooth river rocks in the central lobby which reach from floor to ceiling and are contained within a wire cage, and then the undulating floor balconies surround it. The breakfast room on the top floor had an incredible view of the Guggenheim and a very delicious breakfast. Fresh papaya! Our room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Loved everything about The Artist! Also, there is a chocolate shop called Miss Choc Ole just down the street that makes its own confections and boxes them on site. You can get some wonderful locally produced gifts here as well as deeply satisfying and thick hot chocolate."

"Amazing property! A former palace. A beautiful view from our room. Service impeccable; staff very professional and friendly. Only suggestion: The Asian bistro had a nice ambiance but the food could be improved. All in all we had an excellent stay at Maria Cristina!"

"We stayed 6 nights while touring San Sebastián and did some day trips to Bilbao, Biarritz and Bayonne. We enjoyed the 35 minute walk into the old town passing by the seaside. The hotel was the perfect place for us after a long day of exploring San Sebastián. Facilities were exactly what we needed. We will be back. "

"Nice hotel just a short walk to the beach. Very nice dining options nearby. If you’re feeling ambitious you can walk to the Aquarium and San Telmo Museum…my husband and I are ages 68 and 85 and we did it."
