Arrizul Congress

HOTEL

Arrizul Congress is the hotel with the most stars of the Gros District of San Sebastián, one of the city’s most dynamic and lively areas. This lodging option is very oriented towards MICE travelers (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions, Exhibitions), because of its location (just a few steps from the Kursaal Convention Center) and the services it offers: a meeting room, free Wi-fi and a courtesy minibar in the guest rooms, private parking, a gym, and a free coffee corner.

One of the hotel’s aims is to make the local culture known to its guests, especially through its cuisine: its custom breakfasts include hot dishes with high-quality, local products and some evenings the hotel invites its guests to pair wines and ciders with typical local products like cheeses, anchovies, and the famous Gildas (a typical pintxo featuring olives, anchovies and chili peppers).

The establishment also organizes free tours around the city with multilingual guides, a good way to soak up local culture for both tourists coming to experience the Basque Country and businesspeople who want to take advantage of a trip to a convention to get to know the city’s history.

For outdoor sport lovers, in addition to the bicycles that can be rented at reception, Arrizul Congress has facilities next to the Zurriola Beach to store materials for surfing – a tempting activity considering that Zurriola is the beach with the strongest waves in San Sebastián. In fact, numerous surfing and bodyboarding competitions are held there.
