Nice warm welcome at reception. Terrific view of the bay from our bedroom window. Excellent breakfast buffet. The only thing stopping me giving our stay a 10 was then the turbot I had in the restaurant was very bland.

We recently stayed at the Mercure Monte Igueldo in San Sebastián, and our experience was unfortunately a little bittersweet. The hotel itself is beautiful, and the views over San Sebastián are absolutely spectacular. In fact, the location and views alone make it worth considering for a stay in Donosti. However, the customer service and room service food left quite a lot to be desired. We had originally booked two nights, Monday 19th and Tuesday 20th, but decided to add Sunday 18th as an extra night. As the booking system wouldn’t allow us to amend our existing reservation, we had to book the additional night separately. When we arrived on Sunday, we explained the situation to reception and asked whether it would be possible to stay in the same room for all three nights, rather than having to move rooms the following day. We were told that our Sunday booking was for a sea-view room, whereas the other two nights were booked in a mountain-view room. We therefore asked about the possibility of upgrading, only to be quoted an additional £600 or more. This seemed excessive, particularly as we had checked upgrade prices a couple of weeks earlier and they had been considerably lower. When we asked whether the hotel was particularly busy and whether this might explain the situation, we were told that it wasn’t. Unfortunately, the receptionist seemed unsure how best to help us, and we felt that our request was not fully understood. In the end, we had to suggest the solution ourselves: staying in the mountain-view room for all three nights. This was eventually agreed, but it felt like a missed opportunity to provide good customer service and make guests feel welcome, especially when the hotel did not appear to be busy. The following evening, we ordered room service, which was another disappointment. The burger was acceptable, but nothing special, while the croque madame certainly didn’t taste fresh. Given the excellent food available throughout San Sebastián, we had hoped for a much better experience. To be clear, we did not dine in the hotel restaurant, so we can only comment on the room service. We also tried several times to contact reception to request an iron and ironing board, using the telephone number provided in the hotel’s own information guide. Nobody answered, despite our repeated attempts. When we eventually went downstairs, we were told there had been an issue with the hotel’s computer systems and that the number we had been calling had been deactivated, and that we should have dialled 9 instead. How were guests supposed to know this when the hotel’s own guide instructed us otherwise? Overall, it’s a shame, because the hotel has so much going for it. The views over San Sebastián are incredible, and the property itself is beautiful. However, better communication, a more proactive approach to guest requests, and an improvement in the room service offering would make a real difference. We left with mixed feelings: a wonderful setting, but a customer service experience and room service quality that fell short of what we would expect. With a little more attention to these details, this could be a truly memorable stay for all the right reasons.

Each year the standard and the service just keeps going down. We still go ever year for the view from the lobby, but this year we could not even enjoy that, as they rented it out to a wedding and all other guest left with no alternative....... still never seen the pool, as ever time we are there it's the same answer maybe next year.

Top location and good parking availability. Rooms are quite small and dated. Service is extremely unfriendly. Urgently need people skills and customer satisfaction courses. Food needs serious improvement, this was a 2 star restaurant experience.

Levente D. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

We stayed for two nights. The location and views are undoubtedly the hotel’s main strengths, but unfortunately there is very little else to recommend. The hotel appears severely outdated, as if it has not been properly renovated since the 1980s. Our room was not clean: the sheets were dirty, and the bathroom had visible black mould. The photos also show peeling paint, cracks, water damage, damaged finishes, and general deterioration throughout the room and bathroom. The service was equally disappointing. Staff seemed heavily overworked and undertrained, and we were rarely greeted by reception, bar staff, or housekeeping. At check-in, the hotel was busy but only one receptionist was working, resulting in a long and frustrating process. The property seems to rely almost entirely on its spectacular location and views while neglecting cleanliness, maintenance, and guest service. Significant investment in refurbishment, housekeeping standards, staffing, and staff training is urgently needed.

Breakfast service was very poor I think mainly because too few staff to cope with the volume of people and everything was cold. we were put in a smaller room for breakfast on the second day with inadequate facilities due to a visiting football team.

The hotel was perfect for our purposes, though we felt the rooms were a little tired / functional - but perfectly comfortable for a weekend. The reception staff could not have been more helpful, though the pool staff were a little brusque when we wanted to move an umbrella for shade - surely the purpose of an umbrella? Otherwise, our only slight reservation was having the amusement park so close, with the resultant noise and music in the pool area.

Spent two nights here for an event. It was clean, comfortable, service was friendly. Breakfast was quite good with a nice selection. The rooms are a bit small but very comfortable. Choose a room overlooking the bay/ makes the stay worthwhile!
