This was one of my favorite places I stayed during my trip to Spain. I arrived late at night, and had a little trouble locating the building. But, once I located it was greeted by a very pleasant gentlemen who spoke fluent English. Room was very clean with a modern decor and comfortable bed. Had a sitting room, bedroom and... More

This is a great place to stay, it was perfect to stay alone and would also be a great place for a couple or a small group if you got adjacent rooms. The owner is extremely nice and accommodating, and speaks English or Spanish or French to you, as needed! The room was very clean, nice balcony, simple but perfect.... More

As soon as we arrived at Pension Altair we felt very welcome. The staff are incredibly friendly, and recommended some great Tapas bars and restaurants. Only a five minute walk from the beach, and five minutes from the old town, the hotel is in a great spot. The rooms are a little on the small side, but very modern and... More

We stayed in 2 different rooms at Pension Altair about 10 days apart. Ricardo and co. are great hosts. There is no fridge in rooms or for communal use, but he arranged for us to have access to a kitchen on another floor to store food for our daughter who has special dietary needs. Scrupulously clean, decent beds and unlimited... More

The Pension Altair was a great choice for an inexpensive weekend break in San Sebastian. San Sebastian is an expensive city – and unbeknown to me, the weekend we visited was at the end of Semana Grande. I thought it was the previous week, but it wasn’t and this fact had pros and cons. Cons included the room being more... More

Altair was a great place for us to stay in San Sebastian. It was only a couple blocks from the beach and not too far from a number of good restaurants. The rooms were modern and clean but simple. Perfect for the price. Our only hiccup was payment as the front desk was not staffed when we left in the... More

The Altair is in a great location with everything in walking distance. Most of the rooms are lovely, the ones on the first floor are nicer than the ones on the second floor. Staff at reception are great and very helpful and informative. BUT it was very loud, on the first floor because people kept going in and out at... More

Stayed for 4 nights and have absolutely no complaints. Our room was 64 euros each night and the room was clean and very modern. No air con, kettle or fridge which was inconvenient but its not a hotel at the end of the day. Bathroom had a fantastic walk in shower and was again of a very high standard. Noise... More

We stayed for two nights in the cheapest room, which was very clean. We thought it was in a good location, only 10 mins walk to the busy old town. There a few very good local pintxo bars, which the helpful staff suggested. Only draw back with the room was the very thin walls, so any noise made in the... More
