San Sebastian is the capital city of the province of Gipuzkoa in the Basque Country region, Spain. The longest, continuously running Jazz Festival in Europe happens the last week of July and features the top musicians from around the world. Aditionally, the most important Spanish international film festival and one of the most important film festivals in Europe is held in San Sebastian. Do you need to know more about it to visit us?

Adults usually have dinner in gourmet clubs which provide elements of the procession ‘Noche de la Tamborrada’ where you can eat sophisticated meals cooked by the best cookers of the region (mostly composed of seafood) and drink the best wines. For Basques this is the most celebrated festival of the year!

Watch out: Russian dictatorship in Donostia!! Unexpected behaviour and very strict rules like if you were in the army!! Of course I respect rules to keep the place quiet, clean and safe for everyone, but this was just way too much!! The location is perfect, but beaware of the building site just in front of the hostel which is not mentioned anywhere on the www. Do not expect any sea-view, but the sea is just a few steps away. Perfectly clean and safe, but boring rules to respect like nowhere else on holidays!! After begging, I was let to leave the luggage during the day, but when I came to pick it up, I was not let to use the wc, horrible!! So, do not expect to be warmly welcomed, you will rather meet dictatorship by Russians in the center of beautiful San Sebastian!
