We stayed at Villa Soro for 3 nights in late June and it rained continuously for those 3 complete days, so we were very pleased that we stayed at such a warm and comfortable hotel.
Pay the extra and stay in the main house as it is really lovely and all the lounges, breakfast room and bars are in this part of the hotel.
The service - friendliness of the staff was amazing - top marks to Iris on the front desk who was very kind. One of the front desk people doesn't speak English, so we were ígnored by him, but this was the only small problem during our stay. We decided one night to brave the weather and go to a tapas bar close to the hotel. We took the car, got drenched getting to the bar, then found that it was closed. So back to the Hotel for Room Service that closed at 10.30pm. However they were able to provide hot bread rolls, a big plate of cheese and a bottle of red wine so we were very happy. We agree with all the reviews re great WIFI, carparking and fantastic breakfast with cheerful helpful staff - nothing is too much trouble and the emphasis is on providing great service from housekeeping all the way through. Even the iron and ironing board came in seconds and the iron and jug for water was in a basket - attention to detail was perfect.
Yes its not close to the beach or the old town, but if, like us, you get dreadful weather (3 in 4 days in San Seb have rain, you can't ask for a better hotel.
