Guest house in San Sebastián’s Old Town, opposite San Telmo Museum and near Zurriola and La Concha beaches, with rooms featuring balconies.

Room types

Pensión Ab Domini offers three double rooms, all with a balcony and a maximum capacity of two people. The option with a shared bathroom is 14 m² and has two single beds; it also features a minibar, a flat-screen TV and views of the city and points of interest. It is the simplest option if you don’t need a private bathroom.

The other two categories have private bathrooms: one is 16 m² and offers sea views as well as views of the city and surroundings, while the 14 m² Double Room combines a balcony with views and wooden or parquet flooring. Room amenities include toiletries, a bathrobe, towels and a hairdryer. All three options accommodate two guests and have two single beds. This lets you choose between a shared bathroom or greater privacy, and between a slightly larger room with sea views or a smaller option.
