San Sebastián is proposing a ban on new hotels to encourage a more sustainable approach to tourism, which could come into force next year.
The Spanish city’s government is set to follow in the footsteps of Palma de Mallorca, which banned new Airbnbs in 2018, a move replicated in Florence earlier this year. Seville, meanwhile, now has a ban specifically on stag and hen dos, while Barcelona is reportedly also considering what can be done to stop overtourism.
