Jonathan
The hotel was very centrally located—everything within a 15 minute walk. The room was very clean and cleaned daily. The proprietor, Jon, and staff were very helpful and friendly; good communication and recommendations. As we were here during peak heat, it was very nice to have AC in the room after long, hot days out on the beach and for local pintxos crawls. Highly recommended!
Anita
Clean room with lovely and helpful staff near city centre
Dougie
Everything's close by, transport, market, old town, beach...
Todd
Great place, great location.
NADIA
Great location in the center of San Sebastián. Convenient access to the sights. quick responses to our requests and very hospitable.
Robbie
Overall rather disappointing
I’ve held off writing this review for a while, but I feel the time has come to share my experience.
First impressions were very good — the hotel was welcoming, very clean, and in a great location. In fact, I can’t really fault the stay itself. However, there were a few issues that changed my overall view.
The front desk is not manned as it states on the website, which means it’s impossible to simply ask a question in person. That’s inconvenient enough, but the bigger problem came the day before we were due to leave. Our room had been cleaned, and I discovered that some of our clothes had been mistakenly discarded by the cleaner. I fully accept that accidents happen, but when I tried to contact the hotel immediately (via Hotels.com and text message), I received no response until two days later — after we had already left.
The hotel did eventually confirm that the cleaner hadn’t realised the bag with our washing wasn’t rubbish. While I appreciated the explanation, communication has since stalled, particularly after I requested reimbursement for one item of expensive clothing. This lack of response has been very disappointing.
So, would I recommend this hotel? The simple answer is: only for its location and cleanliness. It feels more like an Airbnb than a true hotel, and if service or support matters to you, this may not be the right choice.

Host very helpful.
Cristina
We had a wonderful stay at Pension BUENPAS. The accommodation is situated in a very central location, just a 5-minute walk from La Concha, allowing us to explore all the key attractions on foot. The room and amenities are basic but perfectly suited for short stays. Both the room and shared spaces were immaculate. Jon was incredibly helpful and kind, going above and beyond to ensure we had an excellent experience. We will definitely choose to stay here again on future visits to San Sebastian.
Richard
Fabulous. Great location. Very comfy room.
Alexandra
Jon Buenpas is a wonderful host as the owner of the pension. He gave us local recommendations and allowed us to leave our luggage for the day after we checked out. Highly recommend this clean and wonderful property.

Wow
Amazing place!

Great stay in the city centre
Great stay in a nice and quiet area of the city only minutes away from the bustling town. The rooms are squeaky clean with all the amenties one needs. The host was also incredibly helpful by providing us with local tips - we tried some of the best places as a result and tried the local favourite pintxos.

Property was in a fantastic location. Joe was sensational with recommendations and his hospitality

Rachel
We booked this place last minute and Jon was excellent at getting all the info we needed for parking and checkin quickly. We received a very detailed message about where to park and how it works as well as instructions on how to get in our room. We didn’t have any issues with either. The place was very nice and clean. We met Jon in the morning to get the discounted parking ticket and he was so friendly and showed us the map of the town and his favourite places to eat. Excellent service all around.

Really great stay at Buenpas. Jon was an excellent host, with great communication and helpful recommendations. Check in was a breeze and room was exactly as expected. Location was top notch - minutes from the beach and the old town. Should I ever return to San Sebastian, I hope to stay here again.
Deborah
We’ve found our perfect place to stay in San Sebas
This is our 8th visit to San Sebastián and we have finally found the ideal place to stay with an ideal location for all amenities. The owner Jon and his wife are amazing and really looked after us. Very Clean, really comfortable, Netflix tv, coffee station in lobby , what more can you ask for. I would definitely recommend here and we will both be returning 🍺

Located near the old town(5-10min), the pension was clean and the staff was very helpful going out of their way to give us tips for our stay.

We loved the refreshments station, it was a great treat! We only wish the espresso machine was working.
The place was also perfectly situated in a quiet neighbourhood but steps from the action.
We would definitely stay again!

Great location. Room was clean. Easy check in and check out. Tea/coffee facilities provided in common area.

Worst ‘hotel’ have ever been in. Room not big enough to swing a cat, despite being very expensive. Also very stuffy and extremely loud. Hotel is located on very busy street that is impacted by buses, partygoers, and rubbish trucks at all hours of the night. Despite requesting twin beds we had to settle for a small double. Avoid rooms 1 and 2 at all cost (not only are they located above the busy street but you have to share a bathroom with strangers!) Note also San Sebastián is cold and very rainy, even in summer, so don’t go expecting sun and beach.
Verified traveler
The place was in a great location, simple flight of stairs to walk up to get into the place. We were able to walk everywhere by foot from here. The rooms were clean and facilities were all new. You can hear the noise from the corridor but this was not a big issue and we slept through. There is coffee and tea facilities provided with some lollies / biscuits which were a big hit for us.
We had a room with a balcony, A/C, private bathroom and twin beds (requested double) but we were notified on booking and chose to retain booking. These were pushed up against eachother so no issues for us either.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and provided us a itinerary of what to do /see for our stay with a map which was very helpful. They also let us leave our luggage and gave us access to collect later as we had a late flight. Spoke English fairly well so communication was no issue.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay here and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to others.

Poor communication
Hotels.com didn’t have our reservation. Pension Buenpas put us up for 1 night then were full so put us in another said it was more expensive they paid but it was tiny. Poor communication as we left something behind and tried to get our new pension to ring them so we could collect it and they never got back to us. Disappointing for a great location
Verified traveler
Excellent and thorough introduction to San Sebastián with many great recommendations. Manager always available to help with any requests. Check-in process very easy when manager wasn’t present (after hours). Close to old town and beach.

Great location, very clean, very comfortable, and it was good to be able to make a variety of teas and coffee.

Great stay at Pension Buenpas!
Great stay at Pension Buenpas! The room was small but convenient, the shared bathroom was very clean. Jon, the owner, and his staff were extremely helpful. They suggested a lot of nice restaurants and things to do in San Sebastián and also helped us make reservations (for those who do not speak Spanish). I strongly recommend this place!
Verified traveler
Pensión Buenpas has a great location. It’s very close to the train stations, the beach, stores, restaurants and the Old Town. Jon was very helpful and nice, even before we arrived. He gave us very useful information about how to get there, places to eat and things to do in San Sebastián. We enjoyed his recommendations and had a great time. The bedroom was very clean, spacious, completely renovated, comfortable, with much natural light and balcony. We had everything we needed and would love to stay in Pension Buenpas our next time in San Sebastián.
Carla
Super clean and cozy. We went to visit for a day, a Sunday. Almost everything in San Sebastian was closed, and it was raining. Our host saved the day and told us about local tapas spots, gave us an specific route, and pretty much planned our day. Very attentive. Excellent recommendations, friendly staff, super clean. 100% recommended!!
Barry
It was an awesome experience staying at Buenpas. Lovely room, central to most sights and amenities (we walked with our luggage from the train station on arrival and to the bus terminal on departure) and a well stocked common area for tea and coffee making. Juan and Alicia were extremely friendly, efficient and helpful. They provided us with plenty of useful information and tips to make the most of our stay in San Sebastian. Highly recommended property.

Budget pension, good location
As we only needed somewhere to sleep for 2 nights this was sufficient. Basic but clean, you get what you pay for.

Shared bathrooms and no AC in rooms
The staff were friendly and the rooms were clean but it was really uncomfortable as there was no AC and it was a hot night. We needed to leave the window open because it was hot but then it is a very noisy street at night so we had a really bad nights sleep.
Also you should know that bathrooms are shared for this room.

Excelente custo benefício
Excelente localização, perto de tudo, estacionamento pago muito próximo. O único porém foi a porta do banheiro que era de correr e não estava muito bem encaixada, caindo no pé da minha amiga. Na hora achamos que tinha quebrado dois dedos, mas por sorte só fez uma luxação. Proprietário foi muito atencioso. A rua está em obras, mas não atrapalhou em nada.
Juan
Lo recomendaré seguro!! Todo genial y el anfitrión un 10 en trato, información del lugar. Muy bien situado y limpió, gracias por todo.

バスク鉄道で到着時は駅から歩ける距離でした。旧市街のレストランにも徒歩圏で立地はいいです。とても清潔かつ広い部屋でとても居心地がよかったです。早めの到着でしたがスタッフの対応はとてもよく、丁寧な説明やサービスで安心して滞在できました。カードキーを渡されて、夜は無人になるようです。コーヒー紅茶とリンゴバナナはフリーでいてでも取れるようになっていました。とてもいいホテルです。

Muy recomendable!
Es una pensión muy apañada muy cerca de todo. Cerca del centro, de la parte nueva y de la playa. Teníamos una habitación con baño privado, muy contentos, la verdad. Las camas muy cómodas y baño impecable. Jon (el dueño) super amable, te ayuda con todo, información de la ciudad, donde ir, donde comer, consejos, etc. además tiene un pequeño recibidor con máquina de café, hervidor de agua, infusiones... Respecto al coche: tienen un convenio con un parking cercano con lo cual sale bastante asequible (teniendo en cuenta los precios del resto de aparcamientos en San Sebastián.. ). En resumen: volveremos!!!

Experiencia estupenda. La habitación no solo está muy limpia sino que está bien decorada, que siempre resulta agradable. En pleno centro y al lado de la playa también.
Además, desde Buenpas nos ayudaron a organizarnos con el parking, clases de surf y otras recomendaciones.
