San Sebastian Airport Guide
One of the most beautiful cities in Spain, San Sebastian makes an excellent city break destination. You’ll have plenty to do there; spend your time on the fabulous beach which is less than a stone’s throw from the delightful old town. If you get bored of sunbathing and swimming, don a top and head into the alleys of the old town for an introduction to the city’s history. The energetic can climb to the top of one of the two hills that bookend the city and take photos of the fabulous view out over it. Finally, spend an evening in one of the seafront fish restaurants for some excellent Basque cuisine.

Hotels Near San Sebastian Airport
San Sebastian is a very upmarket city and the hotels match the city’s image. You’ll find precious little accommodation there at rock bottom prices so may have to stay a little out of the city if you don’t want to pay city prices. We recommend the Silken Amara Plaza Hotel, very modern and stylish at around 110 euros a night or the movie themed Hotel Astoria7 at 130 euros a night.
