Akelarre
Three stars suspended over the Bay of Biscay.
Reviewed by Mes Prestiges Editorial Team Last reviewed June 2026
Pedro Subijana, a founding father of New Basque cuisine, has held three Michelin stars here since 2007 atop Mount Igeldo. The dining room hangs above the open Atlantic, and the cooking matches the view with precise, poetic plates rooted in technique. A meal here is built around the sea it overlooks.
Editor's Tip
Go at dusk for the light on the water; the relais-and-châteaux rooms above let you stay the night.
