Akelarre - Restaurant & Hotel

Relais & Châteaux · Cliffside design hotel with three-star restaurant · Monte Igueldo, on the cliffs above the Bay of Biscay, five minutes from the centre

Pedro Subijana's three-Michelin-star restaurant added a hotel in 2017, and the result is one of Spain's most dramatic places to stay. Every one of the low-slung rooms faces the open Atlantic through floor-to-ceiling glass, with private terraces reading straight out to the horizon. A spa with a sea-view hydrotherapy circuit, hammam and sauna completes the retreat, and the three-star dining room is a lift ride away. A Relais & Châteaux member.

Why we recommend it

The rare address where a world-class restaurant and a serene cliff-edge hotel are the same building. For a culinary destination, staying above a three-star kitchen with the Atlantic filling every window is the definitive move.
