About

Hotel De Londres Y De Inglaterra

Hotel De Londres Y De Inglaterra occupies a graceful historic building right on the Bay of La Concha, within San Sebastian's old quarter. Its position puts the beach, the promenade, and the city's top pintxos bars within a short stroll, while the hotel itself retains a distinctly old-fashioned elegance — think polished wood, floral touches, and a wood-panelled bar that several guests describe as distinctly English.

Rooms span compact 'Petite' doubles to a Junior Suite, many looking out over the sea, and each comes with air conditioning, a balcony, and modern comforts like soundproofing and minibar. Facilities include a restaurant, a snack bar, a sun terrace, massage treatments, and a small business centre. The hotel also arranges tours and offers a paid airport shuttle, with a 24-hour reception.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Prime seafront location — Set on the Bay of La Concha, the hotel puts you steps from the beach and the old town's bars and restaurants.
  • Attentive, friendly staff — Reviewers repeatedly praise the team for their warmth, and for remembering preferences before guests even check in.
  • Well-regarded breakfast with views — The morning spread earns consistent compliments, and can be enjoyed overlooking the bay.
  • On-site private parking — Parking is provided on the premises, a practical advantage in a busy city-centre location.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms score lower than location — While the public spaces charm, the rooms and cleanliness rating sits at 7/10, suggesting some wear or dated elements.
  • Parking access can be tricky — One guest noted that reaching the parking lot was the least positive part of their stay.
  • Coffee falls short — A guest found the coffee weak and not up to par.
  • Premium pricing — The price-to-service rating is 7/10, and a nightly rate from £773 marks it as a higher-end option.
