I picked the Pension Aida because of the good write up in the Lonely Planet and because it was located about 6 blocks from the train station. Also it was located in the Gros (a neighbourhood in Donostia) a little away from the noise and bustle of the old town (Parte Vieja). The Lonely Planet was right again, this was... More

We stayed 3 night recently on a trip to San Seb, and would gladly stay here again. We decided to economize a bit on accommodations in order to splurge on food, and do not regret that decision at all. Rooms are large, and very comfortable. The location is fantastic, a very pleasant 10 minute stroll along the river to the... More

Wifi was consistenly available with a strong signal The location, across the river in Gros is excellent. It is a short walk from the Parte Vieja and its glorious pintxo bars, yet in... More

Thanks to Paul and Carlos the managers of this lovely pension. Aida is on the other side of the river from the old town and only about 200 metres from the surf beach. The managers are welcoming and informative. The rooms are clean and comfortable. And the location is excellent. What more needs to be said? More

We were thrilled when we arrived at Pension Aida and were greeted by an absolutely lovely and warm woman. We checked our luggage in and asked for a lunch recommendation. She sent us in the direction of a great little local place, which really set our stay in San Sebastian off on the right foot. Back at the hotel, we... More

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights in August 2010. Whilst we were happy with the location and service, we were given room 2 where the window opens out to a shaft with no fresh air. Because of this, the room was unbearable at times. We asked about changing rooms, however, we were advised that it wasn't possible.... More

We loved staying at the Pension Aida. It is located very close to the train station and about a 5 minute walk to the beach and the old part of town (Parte Vieja). San Sebastian has an amazing night life that we fully enjoyed but were very happy to not be staying in the middle of it (there are many... More

I would highly recommend Pension Aida to anyone who is travelling to San Sebastian. The staff were lovely and friendly, the rooms were better than a lot of hotels I have stayed in and it was only a few minutes walk from the old town where we ate a lot of tapas. More

We came to visit San Sebastian for 2 nights, and chose the Aida Pension. To put things short - this was one of the best choices we've made on our trip. An amazingly warm, welcoming, helping and advising service. Our room was fantastic (and well beyond comparable rooms at other places by a margin), the internet connection is free (we... More
