In 1994, De Paso Publicaciones began editing prestigious books for people visiting the Basque Country, which can be found in the main hotel rooms of the region. After 18 years, the euskadiessencial publication has become one of its most recognized products. Currently, the book is totally established and distributed in more than 7,500 hotel rooms of high-class hotels (3, 4 and 5 stars) in the Basque Country. Each year more than 1,000,000 people read the publications on paper.
