Hotel Palacio Bellas Artes San Sebastián, Curio Collection by Hilton

Hotel Palacio Bellas Artes San Sebastián occupies a restored 1914 Beaux-Arts cinema in the centre of Donostia, placing the city’s everyday pleasures within easy reach. La Concha Beach, the Buen Pastor Cathedral, the Old Town and the railway station are all walkable, while the surrounding streets lead naturally into San Sebastián’s pintxo bars, markets and cultural life. The 81-room hotel keeps the building’s theatrical character in view, pairing historic architectural details with contemporary rooms and suites, including accommodation shaped by the original domed structure. Dining is centred on Lotu, a restaurant associated with Basque chef Andoni Luis Aduriz, complemented by a hotel bar and a second dining space. A fitness centre, concierge service, meeting room, Wi-Fi, room service and parking support the practical side of the stay. The mood is urban, cinematic and distinctly local rather than resort-like.
