Wonderful location close to the beach and old town of San Sebastian. We loved that a soft toy was included in the cot for our baby to play with while we stayed here. Worth noting that there are several stairs to the entrance so it isn't particularly accessible if you are hauling a pram or large suitcase into the building, and the lift to the first floor broke while we were staying there.

I was looking for a low cost affordable clean and safe place to stay overnight (I was travelling on my own, female, 50s) between taking the train from Paris and catching the bus to Lisbon. This hotel is very basic, but I fully understand why it gets such excellent reviews. I was arriving late, so I did an online check in, which gave me the code for the front door and my room. I arrived having not had dinner, but there was water, fruit, snacks, and coffee in the lobby, which worked for me. The room was clean, comfortable bed, and great water pressure in the shower. Even a good hair dryer! The hotel is very close to the bus station, something that was important for me also. Overall, great hotel for my needs.

The hotel is in an excellent location- very easy to old town, the other parts of the centre and Gros. It was lovely walking to the beach in the morning for breakfast! The staff were very helpful and booked us taxis etc. The room was big, modern and clean, with a huge bed. The only improvement I would suggest is tea and coffee in the room (but it was still good to have it downstairs).

Likes: proximity to bus station, old town, food. All within walking distance. Also walkable to a hiking trail. Check in process was very efficient all done online. Provided key code access and wifi details via WhatsApp. Host was very helpful with providing information of popular restaurants both in old town and gros area. Nice common area with coffee machine and snacks. Very relaxing to sit and do some work or for some quiet time.

Dislikes: room was cozy but no natural light. Is a lot darker than shown in photos. Hence why the common area may be more comfortable. Also probably due to the old building, sound proofing was quite poor.

Property is just across the river from San Sebastian historic town and is very well connected.
Lots of locals bars etc in the area and the bars/cafes of the old town are a short stroll.
For an expensive place to visit, this is a good value option.
Staff lovely and helpful

Beware that the forward facing rooms have the railway line close by. They don't run late but the do start early. If the windows are closed.not a major problem, but a bit of a wake up call in the windows are open.

Charming, welcoming hotel with lots of character

The hotel were very welcoming and when we arrived early, our room was ready to check in. We were given local recommendations and made to feel very at home. It was a compact room, but had everything we needed for a 2 night stay - the jug of water, chocolates and hand written note was a lovely touch! Bed was very comfortable and bathroom great, though extractor fan very noisy. Mostly very quiet, and a 10 minute walk from the main bus station, and a short walk to the main touristy part of town.

We had a wonderful time staying at Okako hotel. It is ideally located to discover San Sebastian while still being in a quieter and less touristy area.
Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, from our arrival we were offered great suggestions for the best dining spots. They are also reachable 24/7 on whatsapp.

The hotel is very nice and the rooms are surprisingly spacious.
We'll recommend it to our friends and will definitely come back when we are in San Sebastian!

Thank you,

This small 2 star aparthotel really outshines some of the other 3 or 4 star hotels I've stayed in. They really take care of you and make you feel at home, with complimentary snacks, coffee, tea and fruit in the main sitting room that makes you feel like you're in cozy living room. There's artwork and carefully thought out finishes and touches everywhere.
The hostess at the front desk, Adriana, was a gem! She was very kind and helpful with loads of information.
The location was great, I walked to every major landmark, restaurants and shops. I never had to take public transportation. Be aware that there is no Uber, just taxis if need be.

The only negative issue was the train railway was right across the street, so you can hear it coming and going during business hours. So not too early in the morning and not too late in the evening. Not a big deal of you're out and about all day.

Nice Hotel in an excellent location

The hotel is within walking distance of the train and bus station and to every tourist attraction. The room and bathroom were small but very clean.
The amenities in the room (water and glasses) and the coffee/espresso machine and tea, fruit, pastries in lobby were excellent.
One thing I did not like was the smell of the
'antique armoire. It was stinky and I did not used it at all. Even with the doors closed the smell permeated into my luggage and my clothes that were hanging in the room. I carried the stinky smell to my new hotel as well.
Other than that, I really liked the Okako Hotel and the location.

Fab hotel should be more stars.

Fab location in Gros, easy walk to San Sebastián Old Town. Very friendly and helpful staff. Good map and tips for pinxo bars and restaurants. So close to the beach. Parking in front to drop off bags. Reduced parking in public car park nearby. Very comfortable bed. Water and biscuits in bedroom. Shampoo shower gel and conditioner. Hair dryer and straightening irons. No idea why it is one star as so fabulous. Great decor. My only qualm is I booked superior room with balcony via hotels.com and was given dark interior room. As it happens it was blissfully quiet so slept really well.

The parking is a 10 min walk from the hotel. And the owner or manager was constantly occupying one of the two spaces in front of the hotel with their Range Rover making it difficult to park to drop off and retrieve suitcases. The hotel lacks basic services. There is no breakfast (coffee is available). There is no full time front desk (but you can call them). There was no mini fridge in the room (first room in 10 days in Spain without one). So it’s not really a hotel. More of a hostel set up. But it’s not an inexpensive place. So definitely priced as a hotel but with hostel services. The worst point for us is that The rooms are not private. We could hear the people above us and beside us. And the door was paper thin. Any noise in the hallway- however small - was heard in our room. Would not return again.

The rooms are bare minimum and certainly not worth the cost being charged. If it was $80-$100/night, that would be understandable. But $180 was way too high. Also they said they have a deal with the parking lite and it was $35/day. That is not a deal in that area. Was led to believe a deal meant free. The girl at the front desk was great. This was the only positive.

I enjoyed the location and the coffee bar. The receptionist was nice and helpful, as was the cleaning staff. I did not care for the strong cigarette smell in the room (my clothes still reek of
smoke), the teeny tiny size of the room, the lack of sunlight or fresh air, and the hotel price (much higher than it should be given amenities). Also, the bedding was minimal, and I was cold even with the air conditioning off.

Hotel Okako was a perfect base to explore San Sebastián. Single room was small but normal for European standards and had everything you need. Spotlessly clean, modern decor and comfortable bed. Easy walking distance to Zurricola beach, and also to central San Sebastián old town and main beach areas.
Would definitely stay again! Muchos Gracias!

Shocking Not To Advise of Building Work

We were not told before arrival there would be building work going on and front, including windows & blocked-off balcony, would be covered by scaffolding and tarpaulin. Extremely poor management and, to be frank, wrong to offer rooms at the rate they did. A small reduction per night was only offered once I complained. If I'd known I'd have moved hotels beforehand. Without the work I'd have rated slightly higher despite a noisy train track approx 30m from the balcony (night freight trains make quite a lot of noise). On the positives the beds were comfortable, the coffee corner was helpful as was the guy on reception who took my wrath but I did say it wasn't his fault.

Construction work taking place.

Goo location only 10 mins walk from bus station that is handy for Bilbao Airport.
Plus points room comfortable and clean.
Negative points. There was building work taking place to the exterior which meant scaffolding was us the whole front of the biilding. The workers broke something whicj neant i had no hot water for a shower on my first day. The region was having thunderstorms one night and could just hear the rain bouncing on the scaffolding all night.
Any hotel i have stayed at in the past always warned me of any building or construction work taking place so I had the option to book somewhere else. They didnt inform me in advance so was disappointed with that.

It was near the center of town (5 minutes walk).
The parking place is not near hotel and have to use public parking space.
The receptionist was helpful but not always was there. Minimal space for parking while checking in. Hotel entrance was hidden by construction. Help yourself to fresh fruit and packaged pastries and coffee machine

Marked as a one-star hotel, easily could be a 2.5 or 3 star hotel where I come from. Great value for price, great location, everything one could need.

Great stay in San Sebastian

Great location in the heart of everything. Easy to walk to sites, restaurants and shops. Asier who worked the front desk was very helpful with tips on what to see and where to eat. All his suggestions were fantastic. Coffee was readily available in the lobby as well. We actually left some sunglasses behind, and Asier was kind enough to send them to us.

A truly great hotel. The staff were super friendly and gave us tons of great suggestions to eat. The room was a good size and very clean. I absolutely loved the design of the place, really good feel and vibe to it. The free espresso and tea in the lobby was a wonderful touch.

Highly recommend staying here!

Very clean. The area was well located to access the beach and shops. Some lovely aspects to the hotel.

Only negative would be the noise from other guests: in the corridor and above. Walls thin and could hear noise throughout the night.

Everything about staying at Okako was great. My room was small but clean and had everything I needed, and the lovely gentleman at the front counter let me know when my room was ready early and provided many recommendations for pintxos. Free coffee was appreciated.

The small issue I had was that my room smelled a lot like febreze or another air freshener. It was a bit disruptive as I am sensitive to scents, and something more neutral or nothing at all would be appreciated!

Not for us

Situated in the best place, close to the sea & the old town..Walking distance to bars.The hotel itself is nice with friendly, very helpful staff..The room is big enough, but unfortunately I found it very dusty, hair everywhere in the bathroom, no toilet brush or cups..The bed is very comfortable, but the room is next to the railway and quite noisy when the train passes.No kettle in the room, you need to go down the lobby and make yourself tea or coffee from a Nespresso coffee machine in a paper cup..Not very eco friendly..I don’t think would stay here again

I was very happy with the Okako Hotel, from start to finish. Eugenia was very prompt in meeting us to be able to enter the lobby. She was extremely pleasant and helpful throughout our stay. I have only great things to say about the Okako.

This is a wonderful boutique hotel with unique furnishings and design. The rooms a rather small and it is a bit away from the busy tourist area but it is a great value and wuiet. It is very close to the Kursaal and Zurriola Beach. The hotel receptionist could not have been more helpful! She gave detailed suggestions for the tapas bars and sight of San Sebastián. We will definitely return.

We really enjoyed staying at this hotel. The location is convenient for the all the main spots in town, and the rooms are comfortable and very clean. The beds were great, the WiFi works very well and the air conditioning is effective. The free tea/coffee/fruit/morning snacks were an unexpected bonus too. The reception staff are super polite, helpful and personable. All in all a great stay and I would definitely recommend this place.

Moldy Room, Terrible Customer Service

The location of this hotel is good and the art hung up throughout is nice—the issue is that some of the rooms have a mold problem. When you use the shower, the bathroom begins to smell like mildew, which then seeps into your whole room.

I brought this to the staff’s attention after my first night. They said they were aware of the issue and would try to clean it. The cleaning didn’t work. They were unable to move us to another room for the second night of our stay, so we had to continue to live with the smell.

On the third night, they moved us to another room that didn’t have the problem.

The classy thing to do would have been to offer a significant discount on the room for the first two nights, but that didn’t happen. I had to request and then fight for a discount for the next 5 days—and in the end, they only offered me €23 per night. In addition, throughout the entire experience, the woman who sometimes works at the front desk (Eugenia) was incredibly rude and incompetent. First she said a refund wouldn’t be possible because I’d booked through Hotels.com, which Hotels.com customer support clarified wasn’t true; then she said they would need my bank account info because they couldn’t refund a portion of the charge from my credit card—also not true (in the end, they did just that).

Clearly, this hotel is comfortable renting moldy rooms. If you don’t get one, it’s a fine place to stay. If you do, though, you will regret it. I don’t think the chance is worth it.

Gorgeous boutique hotel

Gorgeous boutique hotel, unsure how this is 1*as its excellent. Comfy room and perfectly big enough for 1 night. Would love a shelf above the sink and a full length mirror tho! But excellent location to walk anywhere and close to train and buses.
