Hotels in Basque Country, Spain

Basque Country sits along northern Spain's Atlantic coast, with a mild, rainy climate that keeps the landscape green year-round-summers average 70°F (21°C) and winters hover around 50°F (10°C). It's famous for its pintxos scene, especially in San Sebastián's old town, and for surfing the powerful waves at Mundaka or Zarautz. In winter, you can hike the rugged Flysch cliffs of Zumaia, while summer invites you to paddle a kayak along the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve; for a cultural fix, Bilbao's Guggenheim Museum boasts Frank Gehry's titanium architecture and rotating modern art exhibits.
