HOSPEDERÍA DE LEYRE
✩✩
In the Leyre monastery itself we will find this cozy guesthouse, with spacious and bright rooms. It is a place with a lot of history, residence and tomb of the first Navarrese kings, who sought refuge in its walls back in the Middle Ages. The hotel-restaurant was built in 1979 in one of the noble parts of the monastery, and staying there, in the middle of nature, is an experience for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the cities. It has a restaurant with a careful menu of local products.
PRACTICAL TIPS
-The Leyre monastery is one of the main tourist attractions in Navarra, located in a place of great naturalistic interest, with the Leyre mountain range behind it and the Yesa reservoir, "the sea of the Pyrenees" in the valley. Several hiking routes start from the same monastery that go into the mountains.
-Due to its position, it is an ideal place to get to know Navarra, very close to the Javier castle, Sangüesa, the Lumbier and Arbayún gorges, and a stone's throw from Olite, Ujué, the Roncal valley, the Navarrese Pyrenees, the Irati Forest, Ochagavía, etc. Pamplona is 45 km away, very well connected by highway.
-It has 32 recently renovated rooms: 16 double rooms, 12 single rooms, 1 triple room and 3 quadruple rooms, all of them equipped with central heating, full bathroom, WIFI and decorated in a pleasant style in keeping with the environment that surrounds them. There are facilities for extra beds, as well as advantageous conditions for those staying with children.
-There is a long-established restaurant that serves different menus with selected products from Navarra. A cozy dining room in a historic building next to a large garden and recreation area where children can play. Highly recommended for the quality of its food and its location.
