Hotel Ur Bare

Wonderful location and friendly staff. By chance we booked our stay on the day of the hotel’s 1 year anniversary. The sauna facilities were welcomed after a 24km hike. We enjoyed breakfast on the terrace overlooking the ocean and the surfers.

Just a year old, the Hotel Ur Bare excels at just about any metric you’d want to use. For a start, the location is perfect, right on the edge of the coast overlooking the Zarautz beach. The design of the hotel is very pleasing, with modern neutral colours, wood and stone. I asked for a room with a sea view and was rewarded with a large suite with a balcony overlooking the ocean and beach. The room had every modern convenience, walk in shower, bathtub, and an extremely comfortable bed. With the sea air and soft pillows, I slept like a log. Not surprising because I also had a long lunch in the restaurant, which was excellent. On top of the great location and building, the staff are relaxed and friendly going out of their way to make you feel at home. Going on a road trip? There’s parking just by the entrance to reception, make sure you book a space. In summary, I chose the Hotel Ur Bare by searching the web, always a risk, but I struck gold as it exceeded my expectations.

1) Spectacular location at the end of Zarautz beach. 100 yards from town but feels much more remote and surrounded with trees. Kids could walk from their room with surfboards to the beach in 5 minutes. 2) Great breakfast, wish we tried dinner there. It looked good too. 3) Service was extremely friendly. They made a dinner reservation at a restaurant we won't forget, El Astillero. Best meal of our trip. Seafood and steak a long walk or short drive around the corner in a neighboring seaport. Restaurant was across the parking lot from where the fisherman unload. We tried to decipher the menu with the waitress and she gave up and took us into the kitchen where the chefs were excited to show us all the fish and the grill. Don't miss it! 4) Rooms were beautifully done and recently too. Modern clean style.

Only lateral sea view from the room (paid as a sea view room) and very noisy as the room is located just above a cafe open until very late in the night. For the price paid it is absolutely unacceptable. I would not raccomend as there is a lot of better offer for this price or less just there around.

Herrliches Hotel. Sehr freundliches Personal. Ausgezeichnete Küche und - Chris sei Dank - sehr freundlicher Service! Infinity-Pool mit einmaliger Sicht auf Strand und Stadt. Empfehlenswert! Gute Anschlussmöglichkeiten an Bus. Zu Fuss von der Stadt gut erreichbar.

Extra ! Un petit hôtel avec beaucoup de charme, décoré avec goût, proche de la ville mais surtout au pied de la plage. Tout y est. Une piscine chauffée avec une vue incroyable, le petit déjeuner est excellent et le service au top. Les chambres disposent de tout le nécessaire, sont propres et les coussins…un pur bonheur ! 😊 S’il fallait donner un pti bémol, c’est la ventilation extérieure qui fait du bruit sur la petite terrasse (chambre vue jardin). Si on reste un peu dehors ou avec la fenêtre ouverte c’est ennuyeux. Le personnel est accueillant, chaleureux, disponible, souriant. Un clin d’œil particulier à Oihana qui est une personne très agréable, attentive, qui nous a accueilli joyeusement. Un coup de cœur pour notre famille. À découvrir sans hésitation.
