Hotel Maria Cristina was totally remodeled less than a year before our stay. It's a fine example of belle epoche architecture which is all around San Sebastian and a historic hotel from the days San Sebastian was first popularized as a vacation spot. The main areas and our room were beautiful, impeccable. The staff is very warm and friendly and... More

Absolutely amazing. Our recent weekend in the Royal Suite at the HMC definitely has to rank high amongst my all-time favourite trips. We've been lucky to have stayed in some seriously luxurious hotels in recent years, but there was something so special about the HMC. It had it all. And then some. The hotel was easy to find and we... More

We decided to treat ourselves after completing the Camino de Santiago. WHAT A REWARD! Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly by the doorman, our bags quickly taken. The check-in process was warm, friendly and quick. Our bags were brought to our room in minutes. The whole hotel is nothing but class and service. Incredible and amazing service everywhere.

Hotel Maria Cristina is a majestic hotel with a very comfortable (and gorgeous) lobby. It was a pleasure to sit with a glass of wine at the lovely little mirrored tables in the Dry Bar and appreciate the newly refurbished décor in 1920's opulence. Four stylish desks with computers are integrated beautifully into the overall lobby scheme - no dreary... More

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights from the 22nd of April to the 26th. It is by far the most beautiful hotel we have ever stayed at, and we have travelled extensively. Customer service was excellent, Mr Juan Pablo Beorlegui was very accomodating and helpful when I contacted him with a request. The area is beautiful, and... More

Beautiful hotel, stylish and sumptuous in decor. The hotel was renovated last year and is in impeccable condition. Our room was fabulous and had a view of the square in front of the hotel and glimpses of the surfers beach. The hotel staff were lovely but not that forthcoming with information. We were looking for things to do and felt... More

Echoing other reviewers...just a high quality hotel. Excellent staff, comfortable rooms, perfect location. If you don't mind the price, there appears to be no downside. Three nights in early May beat the crowds and this hotel was an excellent finish to our two weeks in northern Spain. Highest reccomendation.

My boyfriend and I just stayed at the Maria Cristina for 3 nights and really loved the hotel. The staff was very friendly and accommodating and spoke English very well. The rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. Only issue was the shower, which for my boyfriend who is quite tall, was flooding the floor a bit... More

Stayed here as part of a large group on-tour as part of a Car rally and was really impressed by the level of service, quality of the rooms and general ambiance of this hotel. Our final night’s group dinner turned out to be excellent as was the stay in general. I was particularly impressed by being given a free upgrade... More
