Hi,
I will be on the Norte route in July and my wife will be with me also, for a few days, as we are celebrating our wedding aniversary.
I would like to stay in a hotel in either Irun or San Sebastion or indeed other etapa end points in the first 5 days.
Can anybody recommend a hotel or pension along the first few etapas on the norte route out of Irun?

Any help appreciated.

Hi, Peter,
The beautiful, small (but touristy), seaside town of Hondarribia is only a few km from Irún, and buses there and back are frequent. We took the afternoon before we started from Irún to walk around, and saw lots of old stone charming hotels in addition to the fancy parador. That might be a nice place to celebrate a wedding anniversary -- I know that there is a camino marked from there, which hooks up with the one leaving from Irún a few kms in, but I am not sure how well marked it is.
Buen camino! Laurie

I thought I had this all figured out, but I have ended up with 2 train tickets from San Sebastian (I don't even know if it's the airport or the town) to Irun, instead of ONE that goes all the way...
