Hotel was nice. Parking wasn’t available once arrived so I had to park bout 100 meters away. Quick check in. Food was good. Staff were great.

Everything was perfect

Good location walking distance from old town, spa was good.

Lovely reception from all staff, very efficient and warm. Just one night but it was memorable. Thank you!

Great hotel and staff

Hotel Akelarre We chose this hotel for one of the most important moments of our lives, as I proposed to my partner during our stay, so the bar was incredibly high. After researching many of the best 5-star hotels across Europe, Hotel Akelarre stood out immediately and exceeded every expectation. The setting is truly special. Located in the peaceful Igueldo countryside, you feel completely removed from the world, yet you are only a short drive from San Sebastián. Waking up to uninterrupted views over the Bay of Biscay, with nothing but birds and distant cowbells, is something we will never forget. The design is exceptional, with a beautiful modern and minimal style that blends seamlessly into the landscape. Every detail feels intentional, from the materials and lighting to the layout of the spaces. Our room was spacious, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, with a huge bed, luxurious bathroom, and breathtaking views. Breakfast was the best we have ever had, with high-quality local ingredients and excellent made-to-order dishes. The spa was also a highlight, offering a calm and relaxing space with incredible views. Service was warm, professional, and attentive throughout. A special thank you to Mikel for helping coordinate such an important moment for us. If I had one small note, it would be that cocktail options were slightly limited compared to the rest of the experience. Overall, this is a truly special hotel and perfect for a memorable stay or special occasion.

Great space for being with a family, and location is ideal for bus from the airport and to walk around the city.

The room was pristine. The vibe was so cool. And the location couldn’t be beat. Can’t wait to return to Bilbao and won’t think of staying anywhere other than here.

Lovely reception from all staff, very efficient and warm. Just one night but it was memorable. Thank you!
