La Galeria – A Favorite for Families in San Sebastian

Each of the 23 rooms is named after a different painter and decorated with antique furniture and reproduction paintings. Rooms offer sea views or side-street views, with some on the 4th floor featuring Juliet balconies. All rooms include a flat-screen TV, minibar, and a private bathroom with marble finishes.

The hotel sits directly across from Ondarreta Beach, a two-minute walk from the sand. The Monte Igeldo cable car is within walking distance, and the quieter Antiguo neighborhood offers local pintxos bars and bakeries. The city center and old town are reachable by a 20-minute walk along the beach promenade or by bus lines 5 and 25.

The building is a preserved 19th-century French structure with a grand staircase and antique lobby decor. Rooms are individually themed: for example, the Bottero Room and the Freud Room feature original-style artwork and furnishings. The hotel functions as a temporary art gallery, displaying rotating works in common areas.
