Numad apartments and Irima Hotel are set on the hillside about 15 minutes out of San Sebastian. Its a modern hotel surrounded by tall trees and pathways that you can stroll around. Our first room was the standard self catering studio. It was all clean and nice, but we asked if we could pay more and upgrade to one of the few larger apartments which have a terrace. We were moved to room 248 and I would definitely recommend this if your budget allows. The hotel staff obligingly moved all our luggage for us whilst we were out in San Sebastian for the day. There is a fantastic, very regular bus service, (about every 10 minutes), number 28 which goes from the roundabout right next to the hotel, and takes you right down to the edge of old town.
The reception staff were very welcoming, and the ambience was chilled. There is a nice cafe and bar. Breakfast was very reasonable, although you have everything in the apartment if you want to do your own thing. The hotel also has a pool and spa, which may be included if you are staying in the hotel, not sure, but to us apartment dwellers they were charging 30 euros pp for 1 and a half hours. We thought that was abit steep, so didn't try it. Also there is an outdoor pool, which looks lovely but it doesn't open until mid June. I don't know if that is an extra cost.
All in all, a great spot, and a very comfortable stay away from the hubbub of the city.
