Panoramica
Straddling the coastal hills just outside San Sebastián, design hotel Akelarre is a perfect storm of head-turning interiors, dining worthy of three Michelin stars and a location overlooking the Bay of Biscay. Built alongside Pedro Subijana’s iconic restaurant of the same name, this hotel pushes all the right buttons to delight gourmands, wine lovers and design devotees alike. Envisioned by Madrid-based architects Mecanismo, the modernist design scheme is the perfect counterpart to Subijana’s cutting-edge cuisine; like his cooking, everything here begins with the best raw ingredients (such as black marble, pale oak and filitia stone), which have been prepared, combined and finished with the panache of a star chef at the top of his game.

In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Akelarre in Spain…
‘If you build it, they will come’. That’s undoubtedly what chef Pedro Subijana was hoping when he founded his restaurant Akelarre in 1974. Unlike most of the competition, Subijana didn’t take up residence in central San Sebastián, instead choosing a site that was a 15-minute drive away in the hills of Monte Igueldo. It was a gamble, but his reputation and raw talent meant it paid off. Naturally, it was his delectable dishes that people came for, but it can’t have harmed that every plate was savoured in front of a panoramic view of the Cantabrian coast. And so more than four decades later, he did the logical thing: he built a hotel on the very same spot. Now diners can not only come to Akelarre, but stay, too. The hotel is every inch the restaurant's equal, prizing raw quality and creativity as the much as the chef himself. There’s no ostentation in the design; instead, the beauty of the interiors comes from a fine-tuned combination of eye-catching materials and inspired lines. One highlight is the steel staircase that spirals three floors from the restaurant to the rooms; another is the strip of black marble running through the bookcase in the lounge. Perhaps the best thing, however, is that the room service is prepared by the same team that slice and dice in the restaurant kitchens. It’s just not that often you can have a three-Michelin starred meal in bed...

Informazioni per la cena
Ristorante:
Helmed by chef Pedro Subijana since the day it opened in 1974, Akelarre's legendary restaurant (with its three Michelin stars) remains one of the brightest lights burning on San Sebastián’s gastronomy scene. Subijana had originally planned to study medicine before he was drawn into cheffing, and you have to wonder if those early dreams resurfaced in the near-surgical precision that he brings to his cooking. Or perhaps his culinary wizardry is down to something else entirely: Akelarre translates as ‘witches coven’, after all. Whatever his secret, people come from all over the world to sample his dishes, which are served in a pared-back room with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Bay of Biscay. Diners select from three tasting menus, all of which use local ingredients and play with traditional Basque cuisine. His other restaurant at the hotel is Oteiza, named after Basque sculptor Jorge Oteiza, a friend of Subijana’s. Both the à la carte and set menu showcase more simple dishes with strong Basque roots, but it’s still very much a fine dining experience. If it's a snack you're after, order a few of their delectable tapas. In March, April, May, October, November and December, Akelarre restaurant is closed for dinner on Sunday, and all day Monday and Tuesday. In June, July, August and September, it’s closed for dinner on Sunday and all day Monday. Oteiza is open all year-round.
Top Table:
Ask for one right by the floor-to-ceiling windows. The views present a strong case for booking in for lunch instead of dinner.
Last Orders:
Breakfast is served at Oteiza from 7am to 10.30am. Both restaurants are open for lunch from 1pm to 3pm and dinner from 8pm to 10pm. Akelarre restaurant is closed for dinner on Sunday and all day Monday. In low season, it's closed on Tuesday too.
Room Service:
Available round the clock. Everything comes from the same kitchens that prepare the food in the restaurants, making this fine dining on your own terms. The menu includes smoked fish, an Iberian sirloin sandwich, and cod toast with olives and alioli.
