“Understated elegance and charm”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 April 2010

Not the obvious choice in San Sebastian but the best. A restored Basque villa set off road with restrained grandeur and within 10 minutes walk of the centre.

Free parking and wifi in rooms is a definite asset for those with cars and iphones. There is a computer for guest use at the top of the stairs.

Elegant, charming and welcoming. Staff were outstanding and genuinely welcoming and keen to assist, even to the extent of repairing the hole in my trouser pocket.

We felt like family members in a country house where the proprietor felt guilty about having to leave on urgent business but left instruction to look after the guests!

Free soft drinks in the minibar - what a fabulous touch!

Ideal location for foodies - check out Arzak - 10 minutes up the road (make the reservation yourself online and reconfirm - which the hotel will be happy to do.

Do not be put off by lack of restaurant on site .... there is room service although we didn't use it. Throw yourself with reckless abandon into the many pintxo bars in the old town.

Jamon Jamon!!!

“Classy”

Villa Soro is a classy small hotel. The website does not do it justice. It has wonderful street appeal, we had a superior room and opted for the breakfast option too. The room was lovely, in the Villa rather than the newer part at the rear. Immaculately clean, good breakfast, lovely staff ready to assist. Walking distance to Arzak, close to the beaches for walking and running and great restaurants all within easy strolling distance. San Sebastian itself is a beautiful town and Villa Soro was the perfect choice for us as it is small and has that personal touch you don't get at larger establishments.

“EXCELENT!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2010

We spent a weekend at the hotel. We had a superior room and it was more than I expected. I would rate it with five stars. The staff is very professional and helpful. The quality of the room is superb. The staff at breakfast could not be more attentive. I think is a great option and good value for money compare with other hotels which lack in personality.

“lovely stately hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 December 2009

villa soro is a beautiful old world hotel. our room (in the old part of the hotel) was attractive and very comfortable. all the public areas are pretty, nicely furnished and relaxing. the breakfast was good and all the staff we met were very professional. the hotel is within 5 minutes walk of the lovely arzak and alona berri restaurants and within 10-15 minutes walk of the old town pintxos bars and main beach. a very pleasant experience.
