Carmen and Leire again are fantastic. Super friendly. We also came by car and Leire sorted out the parking in a moment. Pros' homely, friendly, and always there to help. Very central. Cons, small rooms, maybe a bit pricey for the type of accomodation but hey, you become part of the family. More

Carmen and Leire could not have been more welcoming. We came by car and Leire sorted out the parking in a moment. Every comfort is offered and they gave us great recommendations for dinner and breakfast. Fresh flowers in the rooms and easy walking distance to everything in San Sebastian. We were there for one night only travelling onto France... More

I picked this pension because I was traveling alone with my daughter and wanted to be in a safe, convivial place with her. I was not disappointed! Leire and her mom Carmen were beyond wonderful. They were extraordinary. We were in the suite which was large, had wifi connection, TV and a nice big bathroom with plenty of hot water... More

What a great stay in San Sebastian. My wife and I couldn't have had a better experience for the three nights we stayed. Wonderful city and a perfect place to stay. The walks from the hotel to the old city were great and the restaurant recommendations from Leire were very helpful as one of the reason for our trip to... More

At euro 99 p.n. (double) it is pricey for a two star pension. The rooms are clean and hotel is centrally located, around 10 min walk to old city. What you are paying for is the caring service of Leire and her mom Carmen. They certainly go out of their way to make sure your stay at their hotel and... More

As other reviews mention, the women (Carmen and Leire) who run Pension Bellas Artes are so friendly. They are full of excellent recommendations for places to eat and visit around the city, as well as surrounding cities, and really could not be nicer (just a note: Mother Carmen, as we've come to call her, speaks very little English. The daughter,... More

Very, very friendly mother and daughter are running this plave, but the rooms are just rooms. And at prices above 100euro just too expensive when you compare it with places like the astoria (bit further from the center, but still), or other pensions. Not the amazing place as described in the otherwise wonderful lonely planet. More

I am late in writing my review as we stayed here this past October. My husband and I stayed for 3 nights and wished it were longer. The place is so charming and run by mother and daughter who go above and beyond to make you happy! The rooms were immaculate and very comfortable. The location is fantastic as well!... More

My entire family loves Leire and her mum, Carmen. There is a reason why this hotel is ranked #1 in all of San Sebastian and it's really because of their dedication, genuine kindness and heartfelt service that surpass that of a five-star hotel. I could not imagine a better ambassador for San Sebastian. When I casually enquired about the architects... More
