I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with fantastic panoramic views of the town and surrounding mountains. The rooms were tastefully decorated and very clean, although being on the second floor was a bit of a hassle. The service was extremely helpful and friendly, making my stay perfect and amazing. The location, overlooking the town with lovely views, was a great place to spend some time in the evening, despite the landscaping not being well maintained. The dining experience was a bit underwhelming, with limited options and high prices, but the overall facilities were satisfactory.

I was on the 4th floor in the attic, and what a room with windows all around offering panoramic views over the town. The best and most spectacular room I've stayed in. If you're in northern Spain, you've got to stay here, even if it's just for one night! The hotel also has a lovely garden outside where you can enjoy the sunset and the amazing green landscape of Euskadi.

Staying on the 4th floor in the attic provided me with a room that had panoramic views over the town, making it the most spectacular room I've ever stayed in. The room was spacious, comfortable, and relaxing, but it felt a bit crowded with the extra bed for my daughter. If you're in northern Spain, you must stay here, even if only for one night.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were lovely and well-furnished, offering beautiful views and the best reading light ever. However, the noise from guests above walking on wooden floors was quite disruptive. The service was friendly and accommodating, even allowing our large dog to stay. The location, while beautiful, wasn't accurately portrayed on booking sites, as it is more of a business area. The dining options were good but a bit overpriced for what was offered. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.

Staying at this hotel was such a treat! The rooms were absolutely gorgeous with windows all along two sides, tastefully decorated and sparkling clean. However, tall guests might find it a bit challenging due to the room layout. The service was just amazing, extremely helpful, and deeply apologetic, making our stay delightful. The location was a dream come true, overlooking the town from a medieval tower on top of the hill. While the dining experience was a bit underwhelming with limited options, the facilities were top-notch.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were fantastic, beautiful, spacious, and comfortable, although a bit too cold for my liking. They are decorated in a modern sober style and have good-clean bathrooms, perfectly in line with the spirit of the tower itself. The service was top-notch, with the staff being friendly and very accommodating; they even helped us with a charger and were attentive to our dietary preferences. The location was outstanding, situated on top of a hill with breathtaking views over the town, although a bit tricky to find through the narrow streets. The dining experience, while adequate, was not exceptional in choice, and the prices seemed a bit steep for the offerings. Overall, a great value for money with some minor room for improvement.

Staying at this hotel was like taking a step back in time with its unique rooms that offered pleasant views over Oñati. The rooms were not only spacious but also cozy, providing a comfortable and relaxing stay. The service was top-notch, with incredibly friendly and helpful staff catering to every need. The location, perched on the hill with beautiful views over the town, was simply luxurious. However, the dining options, although creative, were a bit limited.

I had such a unique experience at this hotel, staying in a 12th-century tower with stunning views from windows on two sides. The low ceiling added to the charm, making it a truly wonderful stay. The reading light was the best ever, and the converted tower was a sight to see. However, the rooms were a bit pricey for what was offered.
