Villava is a suburb of Pamplona, a five-minute drive to the center of the city. We chose this hotel for several reasons including its proximity to Pamplona (with frequent bus service and easy driving and parking facilities downtown), free-parking, and ease of access to major routes (to visit the reast of Navarra, like San Sebastian, the wine regions and much more).
This is a rather modern facility with a small coffee shop/bar on the first floor and a wonderful full-service restaurant off the rear of the main lobby. The rooms are surprisingly large, well-appointed and extremely clean. Free parking is avaiable in an outside lot adjacent to the hotel or in an underground garage.
The front desk was among the most accomodating we encountered anywhere in our frequent travels. Staff is comfortable in several languages and we were especially taken by Pilar and Pili, mother and daughter, who manage the hotel. This is a family-run business and they take great pride in the property and the services.
The food in the restaurant was nothing short of outstanding in every respect with local foods well-prepared and presented.
While Hotel Villava is perhaps better-known as a good business hotel because of its location and facilities, we found it it to be a wonderful holiday hotel, especially with the quality of the restaurant considered. The property has the feel and flavor of a family-run bed and breakfast, but with all the modern amenities of a larger hotel. We highly recommend this property and would most definitely return.
