    The room was lovely, spacious and in a perfect location to easily explore the old town. Loved the eco friendly touches. Would definitely stay again!

    Our 1st visit to San Sebastian in June 2023, a place we've been wanting to visit for years & my wife picked an absolute diamond of hotel. A warm, friendly & professional welcome by reception staff. Lovely room with balcony overlooking local park & the hustle and bustle of living breathing city. Only had breakfast a couple of times during our stay which was very nice with good selection of food. This hotel was perfect base ("home") for us a we discovered this wonderful city, its sights & great places to eat šŸ˜‹

    We were so glad we stayed here! Great, central location. Comfortable beds!!! All of the staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Alex checked us in and gave us lots of great recommendations of things to do and places to eat. He really went above and beyond to welcome us to San SebastiƔn! The hotel will also store your luggage if you arrive before checkin which was helpful!

    What a lovely hotel-stylish, comfortable, and well appointed rooms. The location couldnā€™t be more more perfect-everything is walking distance-old town two blocks to the right, world class shopping two blocks to the left, La Concha beach two blocks straight ahead and Gros just across the river behind the hotel. We had a room with a small balcony overlooking the beautiful little park across the street and the lively square with shops and restaurants. Despite being in a busy area and our room being right next to the elevator (we needed a bathtub and the only rooms with tubs are next to the elevator) it was unbelievably quiet! We slept so well! The staff is gracious and warm and accommodating. I would stay again in a heartbeat and would recommend Gorka to anyone!

    Once again great experience at a Room mate hotel. I've stayed in their hotels in multiple European cities and you always get a great consistent product: good value, location and a modern/boutiquey vibe. Gorka was fabulous. Great staff, excellent service and very nice location. Rooms were modern and quiet. The bed was phenomenal. Great value. Highly recommended.

    We stayed a week at the Room Mate Gorka in San Sebastian and it was a lovely hotel, modern, clean, and had spacious rooms, and the location was excellent and easy to walk to so much. The staff was helpful and responsive to all our questions and needs. And the buffet breakfast had everything you could need. I'd definitely stay here again.

    This is a LOVELY hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff, great location in an elegant and quiet part of town - but only 5 mins walk to Concha beach and old town. Very comfortable, clean and modern rooms. Also a nice little gym. Very enjoyable stay. Highly recommended

    We spent 4 days and nights here. It is a wonderful boutique hotel, that overlooks a beautiful plaza. It is only 2 blocks from the old town. A few blocks from the beautiful beaches and a quick taxi or short walk from dozens of extraordinary restaurants. The rooms are very European modern, very quiet and well accessorized. There is a restaurant that serves an excellent full EU breakfast. Best of all is the friendly and well informed front desk staff who helped us pre plan our stay and provided suggestions and directions for everything else. We all agreed this is the place we want to stay on our return.

    From the moment we walked in, this hotel has been amazing. We were welcomed by the friendliest staff at reception and nothing was too much trouble. They honestly made our stay even better! The rooms are beautiful and clean, breakfast was delicious and the hotel is in the best location to visit San SebastiƔn. Highly recommend booking!

  • 5/5 Emma H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service! The room was beautiful, quiet and clean. The staff was very helpful, especially Alex in the reception that gave us great advice on restaurants and what we donā€™t want to miss in the city. We will absolutely come back!

  • 5/5 Andrew C. 11 months ago on Google
    Great hotel: stylish, friendly, quiet, near the old city. Alex was superb in pointing us in the right direction for food, bars, experiences and entertainment in San Sebastian. Many thanks!

  • 4/5 Joseph W. 6 months ago on Google
    Friendly and helpful service at this comfortable midscale hotel in a great location on a square overlooking a small park. Room was up to date and clean, bus stop in front makes navigation around town easy. Nice room by European standards, but not a luxury hotel.

  • 5/5 Joe M. 7 months ago on Google
    So glad we chose this hotel, location was great, our room was top notch, couldn't fault it. Staff were exceptional too. The bar was just as good, recommend a Mojito, 20% off for guests which was a nice touch, food was good, they do a menu of the day which we had and again it was fantastic. When we return to San Sebastian we will stay here again for sure. Thanks guys it was great šŸ‘šŸ¾

  • 5/5 M R. 7 months ago on Google
    Perfect location because the hotel is located in a quiet area, yet very close to Old Town and many places. Very walkable city! The service we received from the front desk was exceptional. All of their recommendations (restaurants, Pintxos, cafes, etc..) made such a positive difference to our stay. Also, any assistance we requested, they were happy to help every time.

  • 5/5 Leslie B. 8 months ago on Google
    Lovely hotel in perfect location near beach, old town, bus etc. Incredibly helpful and kind people working. Tiny but functional gym; excellent bar and all sorts of yummy cafes/bakeries if you wanted to skip breakfast (breakfast room/food here not my fave)All in all a great stay--hope to come back

  • 5/5 Gina T. 8 months ago on Google
    This beautiful hotel couldnā€™t have been more perfect for our first trip to San SebastiĆ”n! Everything was beautiful - we were as happy at the hotel as we were walking in the city itself! Service was top-notch and the staff was very helpful to recommend local venues. Hopefully one day we can return.

    I loved my stay at Room Mate Gorka, breakfast was amazing, the bed super comfy and the decor of the room fantastic. I have to highlight the staff, they went above and beyond to exceed my expectations, especially Sophie. If one day I go back to San Sebastian I will stay with no doubt in Gorka. 100% recommend!!

  • 5/5 Alvaro C. 5 months ago on Google ā€¢ 4 reviews
    Gorka was such a great experience, rooms were cozy and with the nicest green views of the park, also walking distance to all the beaches and food options. Service was warm and professional, made us feel like home. Will definitely come back.

    Amazing hotel, very clean and Jone at the reception is the best ever! Always happy and friendly and her food recommendations are spot on! Please ask her to give you places to go to. You wonā€™t be disappointed!

  • 4/5 Endika G. 2 years ago on Google
    Yesterday and today I was having breakfast at the Gorka hotel in San SebastiƔn and I couldn't be happier with it, the service is good. We were attended by a waiter named RubƩn who was very close and friendly. Totally recommended !!!! Thanks

  • 5/5 Daniel S. 4 years ago on Google
    Wonderful weekend and perfect hosts. The hotel is just next to everything at walking distance. Details at the room as we saw before in other Roommate hotels. Itā€™s so good staff pay attention to every detail. Gorka bar next to it just as fantastic atmosphere. Breakfast in my Top 10.

  • 5/5 Luis Alfonso T. 2 years ago on Google
    My wife and I really love our stay! Very close to old Town, the room very comfortable and clean, all the staff very kind, we really recommend this hotel!

  • 5/5 jc710 C. 4 years ago on Google
    Pleasantly surprised by this gem of a hotel. Understand there is a Room Mate hotel group in some countries. Reception is great. Friendly and cheerful and always warm and helpful. Room is modern and bed and pillows were comfortable and gave us good nights sleep.

  • 5/5 Tintin L. 4 years ago on Google
    We believe this is a new hotel chain but I love it. Modern and eclectic. Amazing location near the high street and the main shopping streets. The park in front of the hotel is a good green space too. Staff are amazing. All speak perfect English and are able to guide you along. Pintxos? Click. Bars? Click. The interiors of this hotel is quirky but the rooms are big and stylishly done. The bar attached to the hotel is must see-go. Vibey and good priced drinks.

    We stayed at the RMGH in November and I've waited to write a review since we had a bad experience leaving the hotel that colored my opinion for awhile. The double room is too small for two people. There is no desk, just a built-in, immovable sort of ledge with a built-in bench. So doing any work, or sharing that tiny space is tough. I looked in other rooms (the hotel was fully booked so it was too late to try to upgrade) and they had more space and more light. If two of you go, I could not recommend the double room - it was just too too cramped. The staff was great and they had terrific recommendations for food and bars and nightlife. They were very helping in making reservations and assisting in understanding the tangle of streets that is San Sebastian. The location is really great. Right next to everything, but not in the middle of it. So you had quiet nights, but less than a 15 minute walk to all the tapas your heart could desire. Parking is complicated. There is no parking and you must find your way to the parking garages and back again. It had never occured to me that this would be the case, so be forewarned. It's a little challenging to get to the hotel (we never quite made it, we parked around the corner) but they found us and helped us with our luggage. Then they gave us directions to parking garages - ours was about 6 blocks away. And, when you leave, if you are a US Credit Card holder, you cannot pay to get out. You must find a machine and pay the machine to get a chit to get out. I realize this must sound confusing, but I don't want you to be in line, with 10 cars behind you, when you realize that the arm won't go up because it won't accept your CC. I don't know that any of the upscale hotels in SS have parking, it had not occurred to me to check beforehand. Breakfast was great and the self-service setup was fine with us. They have those amazing coffee-making machines so you could have as many cappuccinos as you desired. Their bar and restaurant were also really good and it was a very popular place with locals and tourists. We checked out in sheeting rain and since the car was so far away we thought the hotel would have some ideas for what we should do. But no. No giving us umbrellas either, since they needed them for guests. It was not their finest hour, and I was assured by their manager that they'd put more thought into how to assist guests who get caught in this situation next time.

    Very slick hotel, with a lot of mod cons. Everything was very stylish. The room was a bit small but it was adequate for 2 people. Very nice hallways and beautifully styled stairways with slick stripe lights all around. Great location. The name 'Room Mate' understates the standard on the hotel. Will go back one day.

  • 2/5 Home of Y. 1 year ago on Google
    The room price was more than ā‚¬450 per night. We hoped to get a lot for that high rate in return. Disappointingly this was not the case. The room is very very small, but clean and well designed. The bathroom looks like marble on the pictures but in real it is plastic with a marble print. The breakfast is put in a gloomy cellar. The gym has machines that donā€™t work, so a morning workout wasnā€™t possible. Then you would say the service will be excellent, but unfortunately that was not the case. After our stay we still cannot see why the rooms are so expensive. A waste of money.

  • 1/5 yaxin F. 1 year ago on Google
    We have passed the evening of 13 of Auguste and paid 400 euro for the night ( breakfast is not included and parking is not free) . - We were exposed to noise and couldn't sleep at all the whole night as pictured at 5h20 in the morning . ( btw , 95 db is limit of RED zone , which means : long-term exposure to noise can damage your hearing!) - The Air condition was not working under the situation of canicule ,it is a hell . - The room is very small ( this is not that important compare to what we have been through,but still ,you see ,we paid 400 euro for one night ā€¦) EVEN IF U ARE DESPERATE,DONT CHOOSE THIS HOTEL !!!

    Great location- comfortable bed- room bright,clean and excellently maintained. Consistently high standards in all respects. The warmth and professionalism of all staff was outstanding- particularly Julieth and rest of front of house staff.

  • 5/5 Amateur P. 1 year ago on Google
    My experience at this hotel has been amazing. Truly 4 star hotel service and trilingual staff . The cleaners would leave a little note and would be so respectful with belongings and when to come in. Location was amazing , could walk anywhere and very safe stars . MarĆ­a ,the lady serving breakfast in the morning has truly made my experience at this hotel amazing.She would be so involved and happy to any request , even anticipating peoples needs . This kind of person deserves truly to be promoted and be recognized because of them , me like many other guests remember our stay and make up for a decent breakfast with a 5 star service .

    These people are cold hearted. We tried to reschedule (not cancel) a reservation due to the illness of one of our party. This was not possible. Money lost!

  • 5/5 F E. 1 year ago on Google
    It's my first time to write a review and we would like to thank you all. Your room was super clean, modern, and comfortable. It was easy to go to all the lovely restaurants from this hotel. You all were very friendly and kind to us; we've felt like "omotenashi" (which means great hospitality in Japanese). Thanks to your lovely kindness, we could enjoy our entire trip in San SebastiĆ”n. We appreciate all you have done for us. Your recommendation of the restaurant was the best for us. If we come back to San SebastiĆ”n, we'll definitely stay at your hotel again. Muchas graciasā™”!!

    Exceed our expectation! Everyone was helpful, warmth and forthcoming.Great location, walking distance to everything. Alex and all the staffs deserve a STAR. All the restaurants recommended was outstanding! Hotel provided a list of TAPAS bars which was helpful. To include the Hotel Bar which has great vibes, friendly staffs and PINTXOS too! Beautiful modern cozy room, comfortable for 2 persons, we were on 2nd floor(203) facing the lovely park and main road thinking it will be noisy but we slept like a log. Will definitely stay here again and highly recommends for those looking for a value added. Keep It Up everyone.

    Stayed here for 3 nights and this is arguably the best hotel at San Sebastian. Nearby to the old town with an amazing hospitality service. Love how the reception and room service goes all out to help us through out our stay

    One of the very best hotel stays Iā€™ve ever had, completely relaxing and hassle-free. Beautiful, well-furnished rooms and a good hotel bar/resto right next door. Superb service by front desk staff, especially Alex. Many thanks!

  • 5/5 Louis S. 1 year ago on Google
    Super service and superb room, we went to duplex room. Very clean and tidy! Very big flat with 2 floors and 3 beds. I can highly recommend this hotel. Itā€™s 3min walk to the beach and the area around is very nice too.
