Hotel Villa Soro
A British-style 1898 villa turned 25-room boutique hotel, set among heritage gardens minutes from La Concha and San Sebastián's old town
The Privata Perspective
One of San Sebastián's most characterful stays — a protected 1898 villa, now a Small Luxury Hotels member, with just 25 rooms across the main house and the beautifully converted former stables. High-ceilinged salons, fireplaces and a carved staircase give it the feel of a private home, and the gardens were laid out by Pierre Ducasse, the city's royal gardener. We book the main-villa rooms and arrange pintxos and Michelin tables in town.
