The accessible Travolta suite is a twin bed room with an en-suite wet room that has a wheel in shower. The room comes with a ceiling track hoist that runs from the bed, into the wet room. There’s also assistive technology that allows you to control items such as the electric profiling bed, curtains, lights and hoist all from one remote control or an app on your phone. Other in room facilities include a mini bar, safe, hairdryer, international TV, DVD player and free Wi-Fi

Eat, drink, love. As much as we like Ang Lee, we’re Basque. So we take the eating and drinking bit very seriously, at least. Come enjoy what our chef Iñigo Palma whips up for you, with our daily set menus, pintxos or seasonal a la carte menu. Enjoy our selection of wines. And don’t forget our cocktail bar is open late. For the love side of things and all that…

Coffee, tea, beer, pacharán and hours discussing what that actor said in that one scene or the other. We like to think of our café as a place where the old tradition of the sitting around having a chat still exists. Even though today most of these conversations could be brought to an end by someone taking out their smartphone and searching on Google. Yes, we have Wi-Fi.
