Hotel La Galería

Just a wonderful little old style hotel fronting the beach. Quieter area and a pleasant 20-30 minute walk to old town. Great local restaurants nearby. The sea view room we had was magical.

We had a wonderful stay. A beautiful building with first class, friendly and helpful staff. The room was spacious and very clean and airy. The hotel is situated 2 minutes walk to the beach and at the west end of the beach which is a much quieter area of San Sebastián. Highly recommended

This is a little gem in Donostia. It doesn't have a lot of rooms, so it always feels quite exclusive to sleep here. The location -a quiet street just a few meters away from the Ondarreta Beach- is great and safe. The Monte Igeldo cable car is also very close as well as quite a lot of local dining options, especially along Matia Kalea. |The hotel's area is also well-connected to the city centre and the old town thanks to several buses that run along De Zumalakarregi Hiribidea.|The rooms are very spacious, comfortable, quiet, clean and well-equipped (they have a kettle and also a mini-fridge).|The hotel offers a breakfast buffet for 15 EUR in the underground dining room, but I didn't try it.

The property is like stepping into a different era.. it has a French chateau feel about it. It was very central to third beach and the neighbourhood was very local with good bars and bakeries. The man at the front desk was very helpful. It’s not the most modern of hotels, but that is part of its charm & it was comfortable. I really enjoyed my stay.

We Stayed at Hotel La Galería for two nights in June. It is a great place to stay, not only is it 15 min from the city centre we were impressed with the amenities in the hotel room. The service was also exceptional as was breakfast. The only improvement that we can suggest is for there to be some form of information on the bathroom wall on how the shower works, since it took us a while to figure out how it works. Overall, this hotel was absolutely worth the price and we will consider it again when visiting San Sebastián.

I paid €230 for a Monday night stay on a day with no special events going on in town. Upon check-in, I was given my room key and number with directions to find the elevator and even which way to turn after I exited the elevator. Standard experience for a hotel, but that's where it ended. I then proceeded to hunt for my room door in at hallway filled with unmarked doors. I thought I had gone mad, what hotel doesn't have room numbers? I am not one to rush to ask for help, so I search EVERYWHERE for a number on all the doors before giving up and returning to the front desk. The staff member said "oh yes, we've removed all the numbers because we're getting new numbers". I'm no hospitality customer service expert, but mentioning you're running a mad house of a hotel with no numbers on the doors seems like it should be stated twice upon check-in along with a map or escort to find the room. The room was supplied with 2 towels and a floor mat, nothing else, and I searched everywhere. The 2 towels were smaller and about as thin as the pillowcases on the bed. Honestly, you're better off removing the pillowcases and drying yourself with them after a shower. Pretty sad for the price they charge. The AC in my room was broken and would only recirculate the air, not cool it. I sweat all night and got almost no sleep. A few hours before the sun came up I couldn't take it anymore, went for a long walk, returned around 8am, and it felt like walking into a humid swamp when I entered my room. Fun times for €230!

Had 2 lovely nights at La Galeria in San Sebastián. Right opposite the beach so great for dog walkies. We booked a sea view room with breakfast. View was great but can’t comment on breakfast as we didn’t have it as we couldn’t take the dog to the breakfast room nor could we leave the dog in the room. Didn’t fancy having breakfast solo. No problem as good bakeries and cafes nearby. Beds were super comfy and shower was good. We all had a good stay and would be happy to return.

My wife and I stayed here in October 2019 and really enjoyed the hotel. We appreciated the overall appearance and cleanliness of the hotel and the quaintness of the rooms. Check in and check out was quick and simple. The front desk allowed us to keep our bags at the hotel after check out while we did some site seeing. ||||We had a room that was facing the bay and the view was spectacular. Initially I was concerned about the bathroom facilities for this hotel, but I was very pleasantly surprised at how nice the bathroom was. The room was not very large, but not small. We had just enough space. WiFi was solid and stable. Can't comment on the breakfast as we didn't eat there. Many great places in the area for dining though. We would gladly stay here again and would recommend it to others without hesitation.
