This hotel under the three-star Michelin restaurant can only be described as perfect, with its beautiful scenery and dishes, as well as the 5J breakfast that is always provided.

I left the hotel after one night due to serious safety issues: a spa fixture detached inside the water, exposing metal components, and I suffered a hand burn from a boiling-hot steam tap with no signage or warning. The minibar in the room didn’t work, and staff offered no assistance, apology, or concern. Management responded coldly and defensively, showing no willingness to address the situation. What’s presented as a luxury experience is, in truth, a dangerously flawed and unaccountable operation. Be cautious.

Abbiamo soggiornato due notti nella nuova struttura dell'Hotel Akelarre, un vero spettacolo, per l'architettura, per la bellissima camera affacciata sul mare, per il servizio, la disponibilità, la gentilezza, la professionalità di tutto il personale. Un soggiorno da sogno, grazie a tutti.

L’hôtel est un relais château sans aucun charme, pas d’identité, nous avons réservé une nuit afin de dîner au restaurant, l’hôtel ne donne pas priorité à ses clients pour le restaurant donc nous n’avons pas pu dîner sur place. Nous sommes très déçus des prestations ( pas de piscine)

We might have liked staying at a hotel in town for convenience, but the Akelarre was amazing! Service was great all around. Great breakfast. It’s one of those places where it’s so nice that you may forget that there is great stuff to see, eat, and drink in town! The only drawbacks: Having to call the concierge and wait 15-20 minutes anytime we needed taxis to go somewhere off-property. Fitness center was too small. No outdoor pool. Very expensive. The 3-star Akelarre Restaurant was a special experience, but I wouldn't do it again because we have a few picky eaters, and it lasted over 4 hours. My mistake was having that dinner the night before we had to wake up at the crack of dawn to get to the airport. That made our first day in the next city exhausting after getting only 5 hours of sleep.

Ein architektonisches Juwel, eines der schönsten Hotels in Europa. Atemberaubende Lage, faszinierende Kombination von Stein, Holz und Metall. Es fällt einem schwer, diesen magischen Ort zu verlassen. Mit nur 20 Zimmern ist eine intime Atmosphärisch garantiert ( außer Freitag abends, wenn viele nicht Hotelgäste zum Apero auf die Terrassen kommen). Freundliches, sehr bemühtes Team. Haben allerdings nicht im Micheline Restaurant gegessen, sondern im normalen Hotelrestaurant. Das war okay.
