Hotel de Londres y de Inglaterra (San Sebastian, Spain) with the sea right in front of you
San Sebastian for the third time
Until last time, I had been staying at the two-star hotel "PARMA" in the old town because it was price-conscious.
This time, we decided to go for the four-star hotel "Hotel de Londres y de Inglaterra" that is popular for its sea view along the coast. Stayed for four nights.
This time, I booked a classic double or twin room with sea view for 996€ through booking.com.

2. Hotel de Londres y de Inglaterra
Arrival at the hotel
Hotel entrance
Wait in the lobby space in front of the front desk until check-in
The elevator hall in front of the lobby. There are two other elevators, so you can use the one that seems to be free.
There was a lounge room in front of the lobby on the first floor, as well as a restaurant.
From the entrance of the room
The view from the window gets you excited!
Around the bed
table
The sofa. It was facing the window the whole time. There was a cushion on the luggage rack...
The second sofa. This one was also moved towards the small window.
Carafe. The card has a picture of a faucet and says it's a water container, so maybe the tap water is tasty... I haven't tried it yet.
Instant coffee and tea.
The TV is small at 39 inches. I don't watch it so I don't really need it...
On the right side of the closet is a safe, snacks, and refrigerator (with drinks).
I forgot to take a picture of the refrigerator.
Bathrobe on the other side
A gorgeous bathroom. There are two sinks. There are mirrors on the front, back, left and right, so it's easy to check for bedhead.
Amenities: Toothbrush set and shower cap. On the right, hand soap and body milk.
Hair dryer and slippers. They were nice slippers with 5mm soles.
bathtub
The rain shower is quite large. Even if you are careful, water still splashes all over the bathroom.
A towel warmer? It was very useful as it dried my laundry well 😊
It was shampoo and soap, but no treatment 😥
toilet.
It comes with a washlet 😊
We went out to the terrace and enjoyed a panoramic view of Concha Beach. The weather wasn't great though...
The night view was also beautiful.
Shared terrace on the town side of the top floor (penthouse floor)
The lounge inside the terrace?

Overall ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
The view of the coast from the room window is amazing.
Even in April, there were quite a few people enjoying the sea. Beach towels are available for rent .
Next time, bring your swimsuit and head to the beach.
I would also like to enjoy the pool and sauna at the nearby La Perla , where I can ask someone to accompany me.
😄 Concha Beach is right in front of you, in a great location😄 Washlet toilet😄 Cleaning service twice a day, day and night, with towels changed and beds made😄 Durable, comfortable slippers😄 Towel warmer in the bathroom for drying laundry
😥 Soundproofing is weak. You may hear some talking and music at night (although it wasn't too bad).
😥 I wanted a treatment (I don't think it was shampoo-in-conditioner)
