nochawk,
I'm looking at booking rooms in a town just outside of Pamplona called Victoria or something like that (don't have the information in front of me). It is supposed to be about a 25 minute walk into the middle of Pamplona, at worst a short taxi ride. But the prices during the festival are about half, and the noise, if you want to sleep, is supposed to be managable.
Any advise?
Thanks
