This coastal city in northern Spain is not only a culinary hotspot but also hosts an international film festival with a history of over 50 years, gradually gaining international recognition.

The area features a hotel designed around a film theme, Astoria7, located in what was once a hub for numerous famous theaters. As a result, its rooms are named after many actors and directors who have visited the area, paying tribute to the many contributors to the film industry. This star-studded hotel has invited a total of 102 “celebrities” to grace its spaces, the most well-known being the Alfred Hitchcock Suite on the top floor. The suite boasts a spacious private balcony and an oversized projection screen, allowing guests to enjoy the lush green views outside or relax on the large bed while watching movies.

The hotel, just a 15-minute walk from shopping centers and other tourist attractions, maintains a 1950s style. Vintage movie posters and aged theater seats in the lobby recount key moments in the history of cinema, evoking nostalgia in guests and adding to its subtly charming appeal.
