A tribute to Basque culture
The name Arbaso, which means “ancestor” in Bas-
que, reflects the hotel’s philosophy: to pay tribute to
Basque culture and traditions. This commitment is
evident in details such as the staff uniforms, inspi-
red by traditional Basque attire and designed by Irati
Guarretxena. From the gerriko belt of the pelotari to
the vest of the harrijasotzaile, each piece has been
carefully chosen to offer an authentic experience.
Arbaso is much more than a hotel: it is a space whe-
re history, design, and culture intertwine in the very
heart of San Sebastián. The respect for Basque
roots is also present in the hotel’s activities, such
as dance workshops, tastings of local products, or
exhibitions by artists who reinterpret Basque identi-
ty. It also offers electric bicycles and guided tours to
discover the city through a local lens. Here, every
gesture, every object, and every corner tells a story.
