Best Hostels in San Sebastian, Spain for Surfers, Solo Travellers, and Backpackers
Jump to:
San Sebastian is in the Basque Country in Spain. It's popular with tourists in part because it has one of the best in-city beaches in Europe. You can hit the waves or soak up the sun right near many interesting historic buildings and churches. This is a popular destination for surfers who head to La Zurriola on the eastern side of the Old Town. La Concha is the other main beach in the area. It's on the western side of the Old Town and is larger but lacks the waves that you'll find at La Zurriola.

Accommodation prices in San Sebastian can be a little more expensive than elsewhere in Spain. There are a handful of great hostels around the city. Some are located in or near the Old Town, and make a nice central location if you want to explore both the city and the beaches.
