What an incredible stay the attention to detail is fantastic. We came for our honeymoon they were very accommodating and over the top nice. The entire staff is next level. By the way, bar service is outstanding. They care about every guest and experience as well as the cocktails being top notch.
Loved the place. Great rooms if you get an upgraded category. The only minor complain we has with my wife, it’s the outdated gym area.
The rest was great.
The Maria Christina is a luxury property in the center of San Sebastian and offers great ambience, service, and comfort. Close to all the attractions: the old town, the beaches, and the scenic neighborhoods, this is a fabulous place to indulge yourself.
Fabulous Hotel In A Fabulous Location!!! Walking distance to everything anyone would want and more. Very beautiful ambience as well as accommodating staff. Thank you to all for making our (quick) visit so memorable…we will be back! xx
Amazing property! A former palace. A beautiful view from our room. Service impeccable; staff very professional and friendly. Only suggestion: The Asian bistro had a nice ambiance but the food could be improved. All in all we had an excellent stay at Maria Cristina!
We were very pleased with the extremely friendly staff and the clean facilities. The hotel’s location could not have been better. There is lots of positive energy and smiles in this wonderful hotel.
Absolutely fabulous in every respect - friendly, knowledgeable, helpful staff, understated luxury, wonderful architecture, fantastic dining options. In short, a genuine world-class experience in a charming location.
