Mercure San Sebastian Monte Igueldo  

Perched on Mount Igueldo, a stone’s throw from the sea and skyline. Just 1 km from La Concha beach and 2 km from San Sebastián’s centre, and linked to the city by a century-old funicular with sweeping views over the Bay of La Concha. Address: Paseo del Faro 134, 20008 San Sebastian, Spain.

Rooms pair simple, modern comforts with wide sea-and-bay panoramas. Expect air conditioning, cable/satellite TV, in-room safe, phone and private bathroom or shower. The vibe leans local and lively—think sea-breeze mornings and lookout-point views.

Outdoor swimming pool (open in summer), a gym for quick workouts, an on-site bar, and parking. Chill poolside with ocean breezes or head up the funicular for postcard views.

Meeting rooms available for business gatherings or events, plus on-site parking to keep logistics simple.

On-site restaurant serves Basque cuisine and regional specialties, with a bar for after-dinner drinks. Great spot to sample authentic local flavors without leaving the hilltop.
