The Niza was the surprise hit of our trip to the Basque Country. We'd wanted somewhere smart enough but not too expensive to stay in San Sebastian and followed the reviews here. We didn't expect much but left charmed! Having never visited San Sebastian before, we were unaware of how marvelous the Playa de la Concha beach is, and the Niza's location on the promenade overlooking the beach and the water is perfect. The hotel has a slightly old-fashioned and maritime feel to it. Our room with a sea view was decorated simply with one large window and French window, flooded with the sight of the sea. The bathroom was only a little tired, in kind of a sympathetic way. The sound of the waves at night was wonderful. If you stay, and have rented a car, be sure to book a parking space in their garage ahead of time (this isn't something they necessarily mention when you book) as parking in the city isn't easy and there are limited parking spaces in the garage. However, the garage has extremely tight turns inside, so be prepared for that also! Service is efficient and friendly. I'm sure we wouldn't have been so happy if we didn't have a room with a sea view (you can't guarantee one when you book). It's a short walk to all of the fantastic tapas bars of the old quarter.
