About the Hotel
Historic Boutique Hotel
Hotel Arbaso is housed in a 19th-century neoclassical building near Buen Pastor Cathedral Square in San Sebastián. Inspired by Basque culture, the design incorporates elements like leather and traditional textiles, referencing local traditions such as harrijasotzaile stone-lifting.
