Hôtel Arraya

We were lucky to come to Sare during the village festival so the whole town had a very lively, fun vibe. The hotel and restaurant are charming, and we loved the service! Our waiter was a lovely guy who studied English in Ireland. The food was very nice - beef with mashed potatoes - and so was the dessert. It felt very cosy and friendly. We will be back!

This is the second time I have stayed at Hotel Arraya and my husband and I absolutely loved it!. Location is great, within easy reach of the Pyrenees mountains and the coast. Food at the hotel is delicious - with additional restaurants close by (for variety) Monsieur and Madame Fagoaga are always hospitable and it's a delight to experience this authentic family hotel in the Basque country.

The hotel is meticulously decorated with a charming ambiance, excellent dining, and a lovely terrace. Unfortunately, my room was directly across from a bar that plays loud music until 2 a.m. This was especially disappointing as I had specifically requested a quiet room upon arrival. It felt rather careless, and based on the glowing reviews, I couldn’t help but feel like I was given the worst room in the hotel.||The bed was unusually low, missing about a foot in height to look or feel normal, and the mattress was incredibly hard. It was, by far, the worst night’s sleep I’ve had in a hotel in a long time.||Based on my experience, I wouldn’t say this hotel treats solo travelers particularly well. They even removed the extra pillows I wasn’t using from the bed, which felt more comical than considerate

In a beautiful little village. Very good for hiking and a short break. Accessible by very good public transport. The menu is quite short and there are no specials on offer. The restaurant closes on certain days, check the restaurant will be open during your stay. Great swimming pool. Beautiful old hotel with modern facilities.

Lovely hotel .staff were excellent. So tastefully decorated. Old world charm. Very spacious. Lots of dark wood and beams food and drinks on the terrace .Just perfect

We stayed here on our hiking journey to San Sebastián as part of a pre booked walking holiday with Inn-travel. Bags of character in the hotel, dinner was absolutely incredible (the trout was beautiful) and service excellent. Very impressed and highly recommend!

This place is a jewel: beautiful, clean, relaxing, excellent service and food, in an idyllic setting. The hotel was very tastefully updated to today’s standards, the rooms are extremely comfortable, the bathrooms luxurious. In a charming town, with hiking right outside the door, and beaches 20 minutes away. It’s perfect.

This is a superb hotel, set in a wonderfully scenic and active corner of France. The service, attention to detail and thoughtfulness are all world class. We had room 29 overlooking the square which, when we were shown in, brought a tear to my wife's eye - excellent modern facilities in an ancient setting. The rooms overlooking the pool are quieter and some have balconies. The pool itself was a godsend on hot days. Sare is criss-crossed with great walking routes and has some excellent eateries, the best of which is the hotel itself. Eat on the terrace! Many, many thanks.
