Unfortunately the photos on trip advisor are of the Husa Avenida in Barcelona , not Pamplona, which resulted in disappointment on our arrival! The hotel's own website also has very misleading photos. The hotel, although conveniently located for exploring Pamplona, is extremely tired and need of a revamp. Our room smelt of smoke and generally was not somewhere you wanted to spend a lot of time. There is a garage but it is 11 euros per day which we felt a bit steep. We did not have breakfast during our three day stay as we tried to keep away from hotel as much as possible.

I can't say enough good things about the Hotel Avenida. My sister and I stayed there in early January (admittedly not a big tourist season) and we were treated like queens.

First of all, they got back to me within 8 hours of emailing them about a room with all the information I needed and didn't require a credit card to book. We drove into Pamplona without a map and didn't need one, as they're right in the city center on the city's biggest street in a wealthy area of town.

The hotel is beautiful and features a fantastic cafe that was very popular with the young and several older women in fur coats. I was also happy to see that the Internet photos don't do the rooms justice - ours was brilliant, with a huge bathroom and a balcony that stretched around the hotel.

They do have parking in an adjacent garage for not much money and the front desk staff are really helpful... even pointed us towards a fantastic tapas bar (Cafe Gaucho). I would DEFINITELY stay there again!
