“Maria Cristina's festival-week caveat”
Hotel Maria Cristina, a Luxury Collection Hotel, San Sebastian is a luxurious San Sebastián hotel — an excellent location ten minutes from the bar district and airport bus, clean high-end rooms with welcome champagne, a top-tier breakfast worth taking, and professional five-star staff (reception, restaurant and guards thanked) who helped book restaurants. The misses: no full-length mirror in the room, and a sharp festival-week dissent — a guest paying double normal rates felt like a watched intruder, repeatedly asked if she was a film-festival client, and argued the hotel should simply have closed to regular guests.
