About

Amona Teresa Guesthouse

Amona Teresa Guesthouse sits on Embeltran street, in the middle of San Sebastian's Old Town. It's a compact property with just eight rooms, all offering city views. The guesthouse is within a five-minute walk of the Naval Museum, and the area is packed with pintxos bars and restaurants, putting guests right in the middle of the action.

The guesthouse is adults-only, which suits travellers looking for a quieter base. Rooms are simple but functional, with flat-screen TVs, free toiletries, and air conditioning. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas, and a safe deposit box is provided. Parking is available, though given the central Old Town location, it's worth checking the details when booking.
