Hotel Maria Cristina, a Luxury Collection Hotel

Belle Époque grande dame with a proper dog welcome kit

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
This 1912 landmark sits by the Urumea river between the Old Town and the Kursaal, and it's the city's most formal luxury address. Rooms mix historic detail with full Marriott service, and it suits travellers who want classic grandeur near La Concha. One distinctive detail is the dog welcome kit, though dogs are kept out of every food and drink space.

Why it's in the collection

The Alderdi Eder gardens and the Urumea riverside walks are on the doorstep for lead walks. The nearest beach is La Concha, a few minutes away, but dogs are banned there during the bathing season from 1 June to 30 September and only allowed from 1 October to 30 May.

Best suited for

One dog per room and no dogs in any restaurant, bar, terrace or meeting space.

Dogs are allowed in the room and in public areas on a lead, but not in any area where food and drink is served, including restaurants, bars, terraces and meeting rooms. A vaccination certificate is required on arrival and damage charges of up to EUR 500 may apply.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
