  • The millennium circuit: with two Turkish bath (steam) rooms, a mineral-medicinal water pool at 34ºC with bubble beds and seats, jets, cervical waterfalls, and underwater jets.
  • The millennium circuit with sweating: the same route as above is performed, but, in the end, the body is wrapped with blankets and towels for a relaxation session of about 20 minutes and ends with a relaxing or cleansing infusion.
  • The back program: whirlpool bath and application of parafango on the back. It ends with a partial back massage.

Type of waters

The spa was built in 1760 and is the only one of this style preserved in the Basque Country.

The waters of Cetona have mineral-medicinal properties. Legend has it that the dogs of the Marquis of San Millán recovered their health thanks to these waters and, in 1792, they would be declared of public utility. In 1804 it opened its doors as Casa de Baños and was expanded during the 19th century. The Gran Hotel, the today's flagship building, was built in 1893. Great illustrious personalities have visited the facilities since then: Queen María, the Infante Don Francisco de Paula de Borbón, the Duke of Osuna, Jovellanos, Azaña, Azorín, Pereda, Pio Baroja, Juan Mari Arzak or even the fado singer Amalia Rodríguez.

Those from the spring of San Ignacio are strongly mineralized sodium chloride sulfate sodium chloride and those from the spring of Nuestra Señora de la Natividad are hypothermal chloride sulfate.

El hotel necesita en general una renovación, se ve un poco antiguo y en las habitaciones hay mucho que mejorar, paredes y suelos, bombillas que no funcionan, TV muy pequeña
