Hôtel Ithurria ★★★★

A relaxing retreat in the picture perfect village of Ainhoa.

Exceptional
9.1 /10
By Ellie Burnage, VeryChic correspondent
The Basque village of Ainhoa, although named as one of the most beautiful villages in France thanks to its gorgeous mountainous scenery and picture perfect houses, is more than just a pretty face. It also holds a tremendous amount of importance, having served for centuries as a well-needed pit stop for weary travellers on the famous pilgrimage of Camino de Santiago. We know it’s highly likely you’re not taking on such a long journey yourself, but it’s easy to see why the village’s Hotel Ithurria ****, with its family feel, gorgeous architecture and delicious restaurant, would truly be the pit stop of a lifetime.
