Ilargi Junior Suite: the best room to discover the newly restored Buen Pastor Cathedral
Built in the nineteenth century, the Buen Pastor Cathedral is the largest church in San Sebastián. Its grandiosity catches the eye of all who visit, being one of the must-see sights of the city.
There is a hotel room in San Sebastián that invites guests to admire the architectural details of the Buen Pastor Cathedral from its privileged position – and that room is the Ilargi Junior Suite at the Arbaso Hotel. The sandstone from Mount Igueldo with which the Historicist Neo-Gothic temple was built, its slate roofs, and its slender bell tower inspired by the Cologne Cathedral can be contemplated like never before from the two French-style balconies of this hotel room.
Ilargi Junior Suite measures 50 m2 and features a living room and bedroom separated by double oak doors. The cozy living room decorated in light tones has a sitting area with furniture made in the Basque Country using natural materials (linen, wood, leather), coexisting with international designs by Norman Foster, Santa & Cole, and Rafael Moneo, among others. The room also has a dining table where you can discover the culinary delights of the restaurant’s room service menu, designed by Chef Iñigo Peña, also responsible for the magnificent Narru restaurant located on the ground floor of the hotel.
A super king-sized bed (200×200 cm) with bedding whose thread count is 400 and which features a leather headboard, as well as a natural wood desk, are the two elements that attract attention in the bedroom, characterized by the forest color of the walls that invokes calmness and serenity. The en-suite bathroom has a double sink, a rain shower, and a freestanding tub.
When the windows are open, the ringing of the Buen Pastor’s bells reaches all the rooms of the Ilargi Junior Suite. The sound is the Cathedral’s constant reminder, marking the pace of the city.
