Fodor's Expert Review Gran Hotel La Perla

Pl. del Castillo 1, Pamplona, Navarre, 31001, Spain Fodor's Choice

The oldest hotel in Pamplona, where Ernest Hemingway conceived of his first novel, The Sun Also Rises, is a comfortable and conservative hotel with some early-20th-century accents such as velvet bergères and ornate headboards. Hemingway watched the running of the bulls from room 201 in 1924.
