Just celebrated my birthday and retirement in Pamplona for the San Fermin Festival. I started planning well in advance and communicated with Lorea to reserve a ballroom for my dinner group of about 20. Lorea was very responsive, despite the 9 hour time difference.
When the time finally came, we checked in and service has been top notch. The hotel is very nice, modern, and clean. It's located conveniently close to the San Fermin activities but not so close that you're overwhelmed. I pre-paid for breakfast which is definitely the way to go as finding food during the festival can be hit or miss.
I was having difficulty receiving tickets I had ordered and Martha at the front desk went out of her way, making phone calls on my behalf. She ultimately received my tickets electronically and printed them up for me.
When my event came, the ballroom (Salon Belagua) was elegantly decorated. A young gentlemen (his name escapes me) prepped everything and was joined by Mila and Kevin as my guests arrived. Several courses of delicious food and wine kept coming until we just couldn't eat anymore. Everything was amazing!
And if this wasn't enough, my wife had a virtual meeting during our sand needed good wifi signal, better than what was available in the room. Technician Victor met with her and tested signal on different networks in different parts of the hotel. He ultimately set her up with a table next to a wifi antenna inside an empty ballroom. Talk about service!
If I return to the San Fermin Festival, or the Pamplona area in general, I will definitely stay here again.
