Now this was a luxurious place to visit, with the vistas and the quiet, the wild rosemary growing along the road. Our room was amazing, with a rain shower, comfy bed, a sitting area where our daughter stayed, in addition to a changing area. The staff was approachable and helpful (especially when our passports got locked in the room safe and we couldn’t get it back open!), provided restaurant recommendations in nearby Guernika, and helped with taxi arrangements. Lovely breakfast with lots of organic fruits, made to order eggs, and fresh orange juice. We actually changed our plans one day just to have the morning to sit outside, talk a walk in the road up the mountain, and to be in this lovely spot.

My friend and I were looking for a peaceful location where we could relax for a couple of days after walking part of the Camino and Hotel Urune delivered on this (set in the countryside, 30mins from Bilbao airport). However, it is important to note that it is really not suitable for anyone without a car (which I don’t think is clear from other reviews or when we booked online at Chic Retreats). Before staying here we read online that dinner could be ordered upon request, but when we arrived this was not the case. The location is a €30 return taxi ride to the nearest town and after the owner recommended 3 restaurants we travelled there, only to discover that no food was being served as it was Sunday - extremely frustrating. We did share this information with the owner who was unhelpful and did not provide any solution, which we felt was poor service. Please be aware only breakfast is available (for an additional charge) and there is a vending machine but this is not well stocked. Wine can be purchased but this accompanied by crisps for dinner on our last evening was not satisfying!
Overall it was a very disappointing end to a great trip.

Outside of Guernica, this old farmhouse building has been renovated and now is a really beautiful hotel. We stayed here 1 night while walking the Camino. The scenery is lovely, very tranquil surroundings, one can watch the sunset and hear the cow bells. All is beautifully designed. Rooms and bathrooms very clean amd comfortable including comfortable beds. As it is secluded we brought supper with us from a supermarket and sat in the breakfast dinin room having our supper. The staff were very helpful and accomodating with our supper and any other needs.
