Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Welcome Gros Hotel enjoys a fantastic location, putting guests within easy walking distance of the Kursaal and Zurriola beach. Many appreciate the modern, clean rooms, some of which offer balconies and include amenities like air conditioning and a fridge; plus, the availability of free coffee and snacks in the lobby is a definite plus. Some guests have mentioned that the absence of on-site staff after 2 pm makes it feel more like an Airbnb. However, the digital key system is generally considered easy to use, ensuring a smooth experience overall.

The digital keys were straightforward to use. the hotel sent details through multiple media. the location is perfect. It is just a short walk to the zurriola beach. i also appreciated the luggage storage after checkout.

the parking nearby was in an underground car park. i found it somewhat expensive.

small room limited shampoo

The room felt quite small. It lacked space for luggage. i also noticed there wasn't shampoo provided in the shower, a detail i found inconvenient. the limited hours for the front desk made it difficult to get immediate assistance after certain times. this felt more like an airbnb than a hotel in terms of service.
