Review by hotel critic
La Villa Esponda, a historic house built in 1896, is a hidden gem situated in the charming town of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port. the central location opposite the ramparts allows easy exploration of the town, with various breakfast options just a 2-minute walk away, ideal for starting your day off right. the free public parking, though limited, is a convenient feature for guests arriving by car. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the host and guided seamlessly through the check-in process. the one-bedroom apartment we stayed in was thoughtfully designed, boasting a small kitchen with a dining table, perfect for enjoying a cozy meal after a day of exploring. One of the highlights for us was the breathtaking views of the mountains from our studio, adding a touch of tranquility to our experience. the convenient key collection process, done via phone guidance, added a modern twist to the traditional charm of the property. the safety features, including a fire extinguisher, provided peace of mind for a worry-free stay. Overall, La Villa Esponda offers a delightful blend of history and modern comfort, making it an ideal choice for travelers seeking a unique and memorable stay in Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port. Whether you are exploring the historic heart of the fortress or venturing into the natural beauty of the surrounding area, this guesthouse provides a welcoming retreat for a truly enchanting experience.
