Twelve rooms in a mansion facing the beach
The hotel occupies Villa Aiala, an early 20th-century mansion at Calle Mendilauta, 13, facing Zarautz beach. It is small and family-run: twelve rooms, and downstairs, in the same house, the Karlos Arguiñano restaurant and the bar with a sea terrace. Some rooms face the sea; those onto Calle Mendilauta face south.
Four room types

Junior suite with a large terrace and sea views, for two adults: 2 m bed, living room and bathroom with shower and bath. €190 to €275 a night.
Doubles with terrace or sea views, four: 1.50 m bed or two beds, shower and minibar. Three have a terrace; the fourth does not, but has views. €160 to €230.
Doubles onto the street, three: double bed or two 90 cm beds, shower and the option of an extra bed (€45).
Singles onto the street, four: 1.35 m bed and shower; they can be used as a double. €110 to €150, and €135 to €175 for double use.

High season is July and August; mid season, late June and early September; the rest of the year is low. From Sunday to Thursday there are special rates.
Breakfast, parking and stairs
Continental breakfast is included; if you ask for something from the breakfast menu, it is paid separately. The hotel has parking for guests: ask at reception on arrival where to leave the car, because the restaurant and bar have none and other customers park at Kortazar or Munoa. There is wifi, room service and paid laundry. What to know before booking: there is no lift to the first or second floor and the hotel is not adapted for reduced mobility. It does not admit pets either.
Check-in, check-out and cancellation
Check-in from 14:30 and check-out before 12:00. Cancellation is free up to seven days before arrival; after that they charge half, and everything if you do not show up. Hotel and restaurant close from 21 December to 5 February.
What you have on foot
You step out of the hotel onto the promenade of Zarautz beach, where the surf course schools are. Towards the west, the walk from Zarautz to Getaria runs beside the sea to Getaria harbour.
