Hotels in Hondarribia

Hondarribia usually receives visitors all year round. The reason is logical and simple: it is a town that oozes charm on all four sides. Nestled between the sea and the mountains, Hondarribia invites you on an authentic journey through time that begins from the moment you pass under the arch that supports the heavy stone of the Gate of Santa María. This is the main entrance to the walled enclosure of Hondarribia, where you will feel as if you have stepped back in time to the Middle Ages.  

The main street (Kale Nagusia) is lined with old stately homes, and then enters a labyrinth of cobbled streets with beautiful squares - such as the imposing Plaza de Armas or Plaza de Guipuzkoa -, centuries-old churches, beautiful viewpoints, colourful fishing quarters and the old city walls. 

And all this accompanied by one of the best gastronomic offers in the north of Spain. Here, just a stone's throw from the French border, recipes from both sides of the Pyrenees are combined with enviable raw materials from both the sea and the nearby fields. 

The panoramic view includes the bay, the mouth of the river Bidasoa and, just opposite, Hendaye, a French town where it is also easy to hear the Spanish and Basque languages spoken.The medieval and quiet character of Hondarribia makes more and more digital nomads choose it as a place to work for a while, something they can do, undisturbed, in our hotel in the centre of Hondarribia. In your free time you can wander aimlessly through the medieval streets to discover places such as the Gothic church of Santa María de la Asunción, the old Town Hall or the bars of the Barrio de la Marina. Great pintxos paired with txacolís and interesting conversations with locals always await you here. Whatever type of traveller you are, you will always find something to do in Hondarribia. 

In summer, you will certainly want to beat the heat by taking a dip in the waters of Hondarribia beach, which is located next to the port. From there, you can also take a boat to spend the day in nearby Hendaye or enjoy various nautical activities. At the same time, the terraces of restaurants and bars are buzzing with life. And if your thing is love for gastronomy, here you will enjoy all year round, tasting great fish, seafood and zero-kilometre meats in restaurants like Danontzat, Arroka Berri or the one in our hotel in Hondarribia centre. 

All the dishes are made here, with the same care and attention to detail as the flowers on the balconies of the village houses during the spring, a season when you can explore the nearby mountains and enjoy a host of outdoor sports.  

In the meantime, winter and autumn invite you to meditate in streets that look intriguing and mysterious in the silence. The ideal time to discover the town at your own pace and relax in the warmth of our hotel in Hondarribia.
