very hot day. Dinner was really spoilt by all the wasps and flies, should have had something hanging from the trees to attract them away from the tables, it’s a shame as the food was very nice. Air con in the room not up to the job, but it was a very hot night.

Lovely hotel and everyone was very friendly. We had a beautiful meal in the restaurant and the location was very pretty. Unfortunately, whilst our dog was made very welcome from the owners, there were two cats that lived in the hotel and the stairs/floors made it quite difficult to stay there easily with a big dog.

For Authentic Basque head to this Hotel

Lovely stay in a historic hotel with beautiful Basque decor. Nestled in the foothills and in a strategic location for touring wonderful towns like Saint Jean de Pied and Espelette. The town is very cute with some very lovely views of the Pyrenees. Rooms were comfortable as was the bed. Note: handheld shower, but made me feel nostalgic for classic European hotels visited in years past. Enjoyed the fresh air thanks to the balcony and French doors in our room. Loved the antiques displayed throughout the building. Dining room is pretty and authentic. Dinner was ok, not amazing, yet service was excellent and it was convenient. I would definitely return if in the area, and after seeing Biaritz and St.Jean de Luz, I would encourage you to go inland to get a better feel for Basque life.

Fantastic old style hotel.

Fantastic stay in Hotel Arraya. We did not realise the village festival was on but it was a pleasant surprise and great fun. The management were fantastic and gave us a complimentary upgrade to a suite to compensate for noise disruption. We also had dinner in the hotel and really enjoyed it. Would certainly recomend both Sare and this hotel.

Something different

This is basically a 17th century building -maybe older, - with much of the original structure in place and period furniture to match giving a distinctive flavour to the stay. All modern amenities present though - huge and comfortable beds, bathroom with bath, shower and bidet; the restaurant is superb and I would eat there anytime if I were in the area. The hotel is right in the middle of the small village, which, however was very quiet during our stay (late June). The village is picturesque and famous for that.

Basque Flavour

Our stary in the lovely, family run hotel was excellent. The owners and staff were very freindly with an excellent restaurant. Parts of the hotel date from the 16th century but with all the modern convienences you would require. Lovely athmosphere around the hotel. If you like walking in rural France this Basque region is fantastic, with way mark walks to suit all levels. If you are in the area it is worth booking a lunch or dinner anytime you are near this lovely basque village. Coming from Ireland we had a direct flight into Biarritz and Sare is less than an hours dive.

Sare er et lite, vakkert sted i Baskerland. Og her ligger dette 400 år gamle bygget som rommer det historiske hotellet. Et stille sted med sjel, med et service-innstilt og hyggelig vertskap. Restauranten ga gourmet-opplevelser av sjeldent slag. Kort sagt: Anbefales!

Sulle colline Basche, non lontano dalle spiagge

Abbiamo soggiornato 4 notti, utilizzandolo come base per varie escursioni per paesi Baschi francesi. Paesino tranquillo con una bellissima chiesa basca. In circa 30 minuti di auto si raggiungono tutti i punti turistici principali: Saint Jean de Luz, Biarritz, Bayonne, Saint Jean pie du Port. Belle le grotte nella vicinanze. Di qualità il ristorante
