San Sebastian has always had that ‘I don’t know what’ that makes you fall in love. The elegance of its bay, the salty air of La Concha beach and the vitality of its historic quarter make this city a unique destination of its kind. In the midst of this dreamlike postcard, the Hotel Arbaso rises majestically, a cosy boutique hotel that embodies the discreet luxury and soul of the Basque Country.
Tradition and vanguard in perfect harmony
The Aramburu sisters, heirs to a long family tradition in hospitality, have given life to a project that breathes culture, elegance and good taste. Located in an imposing neoclassical building, the Hotel Arbaso has managed to combine noble materials such as wood, glass and stone, with a careful interior design project signed by renowned designers such as Norman Fostero Rafael Moneo. The result is a space where every detail counts and transports the guest to a modernised 19th century, without losing that warmth that makes it an extremely welcoming space.
Rooms with soul and personality
Olatu, Sua, Ilargi… These are some of the names of the marvellous rooms at Hotel Arbaso. Each room delights us with incredible views of the majestic Buen Pastor Cathedral or the famous La Concha beach, and they tell us a beautiful story that makes each room a unique memory.
Green and earthy tones dominate the hotel’s rooms, evoking the forests and landscapes of San Sebastian, while the amenities are everything a modern guest could wish for. From huge king-size beds and exclusive Marshall speakers to wonderful amenities from the prestigious Apivita brand.
Hotel Arbaso is a place where luxury is not shouted, but rather felt. From the impeccable bedding to the warmth of a fireplace in the room that invites us to disconnect. In this charming boutique hotel, absolutely everything is designed to offer an unforgettable experience.
The gastronomic jewel: Narru
If the Hotel Arbaso is a treat for the senses, its Narru restaurant is a real feast. Under the guidance of chef Iñigo Peña, Basque cuisine is presented in its most sophisticated version. A sublime gastronomic proposal in which the dishes combine tradition and creativity, with zero-kilometre ingredients and that flavour that only the Cantabrian breeze can inspire. At Narru every mouthful tells a story, and every sip of wine is the perfect complement to an unforgettable evening.
Wellness and disconnection
After a stroll around San Sebastian or an afternoon enjoying its culinary offer, there is nothing better than to burn off some energy in the hotel’s gym, equipped with state-of-the-art machines. For those who prefer to relax, the sauna is an ideal option for eliminating toxins and revitalising body and mind. A perfect place to end the day in the warmth of Hotel Arbaso.
A break that has it all
Hotel Arbaso is not just accommodation, it is an unforgettable experience in the heart of the Basque Country. It is a unique blend of history and luxury. Located just a few steps away from the main attractions of San Sebastian, it is the ideal destination for those looking to immerse themselves in the essence of this beautiful city and disconnect from the daily hustle and bustle.
The Hotel Arbaso is always an idyllic destination to enjoy with all five senses… Because sometimes we don’t need to go far to find paradise!
