10/10 Excellent
"I had a great stay at San Sebastián while in Huaraz. All of the staff were very helpful, the hotel rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good and they held my bags for 8 days while I was on the Huayhuash Trek. I would definitely stay at San Sebastián again and will recommend it to anyone I know visiting Huaraz."

"I had a very pleasant say! Staff was very courteous and helpful. The neighbourhood is quiet, clean and there is a police station 100m away so I felt very safe during my visit. The only thing I would say is that the walls were quite thin especially around the bathroom so you could hear the street dogs barking outside at night and other guests showering & talking when you were in there. Overall, it’s one of the best options in the area."
