Gran Hotel La Perla is a 5-star hotel in Pamplona, on Plaza del Castillo, with a history linked to Ernest Hemingway. The writer stayed here, and the old guest books preserve the names of guests such as Chaplin, Orson Welles and the Aga Khan. That history also inspires some of the rooms, including a suite decorated like the room Hemingway occupied in 1924.
The hotel offers double rooms, a triple room, an attic room and several suites, ranging from 30 to 60 m², with balconies and views of streets or squares in some rooms. The rooms are soundproofed and air-conditioned; features may include welcome gifts, a minibar, coffee maker, a bath or a hydromassage shower. The hotel has a restaurant, café and bar, as well as room service and breakfast with continental, vegetarian and gluten-free options. From the square, you can walk to the bullring and the streets associated with the San Fermín running of the bulls.
