We did Camino de Santiago so the Albergue is on the way to the hiking route. It was what we needed, for a short stay. Clean, comfortable beds. And the common areas are okey. Staff was really nice and helpful.
Located in the commercial heart of Bilbao, Hotel Ilunion Bilbao is 328 feet from San Mamés Bus and Metro Stations. There is a gym, and free WiFi is offered.

Superb location within easy walking distance to San Mamés metro stop, and to the Intern Modal Bus Station. It is perfectly located to walk to the Guggenheim Museum - less than 15 min through a lovely park or along the waterfront. The staff were friendly.
Overlooking Bilbao’s River Nervión, Barceló Bilbao Nervión is 260 yards from Calatrava Bridge and a 10-minute walk from the Guggenheim Museum. It has comfortable, modern rooms with free Wi-Fi.

There’s a lot to see in Portugalete - plenty of information at the Tourist Office. The nearest beach is just minutes away
The hanging bridge (puente Colgante) is an extraordinary piece of engineering and is the most predominant feature here
There’s a produce market - fruit/veg/flowers and plants three times a week.
There are boat trips too but these only operate at weekends from 15 September
We found a great Mexican restaurant in the old town

The bridge is interesting, but you can't spend a week looking at a bridge!
El Bote tour around the bay and up river to the city center is very good value for money and highlights the contrast between the depressed industrial wastelands and the modern developments in the city.
Many of the attractions in the Tourist office leaflet were permanently closed, ie Getxo Aquarium and the Salazar Tower, so check websites first.
Although there are lots of bars and cafes, we had problems finding restaurants open within elderly walking distance. We had a great lunch in Náutico Berria but when we went again one evening without booking, found that the kitchen is only open in the evenings at the weekend.

It was the festival to celebrate 700 years since the founding of the town, so there was a lot to see and do. Portu is an interesting place down by the river and Puente Colgante. It is easy to get to Bilbao and other places. There are lots of friendly bars and people.

Location great for access to Bilbao and for the ferry to Portsmouth.
However, Portugalete is not geared up for tourists. We stayed Monday night, which is never the best night for eating out in Spain, and we could not find any decent place to eat.

People seemed very uptight.
People seemed very uptight. There was no variety of food in the area we were staying. We were there for three days the weather reminded me of London. Prices were higher than the rest of other cities I have visited in Spain
The room was comfortable, the hotel offers free tea and coffee facility. Menu in restaurant was limited. Staff is friendly and the room was clean. A big football match was on that night so there was plenty of animation around the town. However we did not hear any noise during the night. Bathroom is superb with 2 shower heads, toilet and a bidet!! Lovely supply of toiletries and toothbrush.
Just 15 minutes away from the ferry terminal, really handy and no traffic on the way.
Beautiful apartment, very clean and as described. Had everything we needed for our week. Great transport links. There’s a supermarket right next door open until 9pm. Short walk to Portugalete metro station (buy a Barik card and top up from the machine in the station) and short walk to the bridge over to Getxo (for the beach) and you can use your Barik card for the crossing. Great play areas close by if you have little ones. Host was lovely.
This hotel is close to the Puente Colgante, a historic transporter bridge built by one of Eiffel's disciples in 1893. That was a bonus we weren't expecting. The hotel has a historic feel, its main entrance facing the pedestrian walk along the river rather than the street. Our room was very nice, with a balcony from which we could see both the river side with the bridge and the street side, with sidewalk escalators coming up the steep hill!
We had a wonderful stay at the Albergue Bidd-Ona, the whole staff was very welcoming and gave us great advice to visit the areas. The place is very friendly and we got to meet some great people.
The bathrooms and the kitchen are very clean and convenient.
Portugalete is also a nice town, directly connected to Bilbao with the bus and metro.
I loved this place. Welcoming receptionist who spoke good English. International standard hotel room with balcony and good view of the Vizcaya Bridge. Right on the edge of the old town and next to the Camino de Santiago for convenient morning departure. Good wifi. Safe, bar fridge and espresso maker with pods. Comfortable bed. Clean.
My room was single room with a view.
I had a very inspiring view and enjoyed the view with differents day lights, my window was looking on thw river and building were amazing
Location was good cuz the transportation to pass to the next side of the river was close and infront of the hotel
The apartment is very comfortable and spacious, full of light. Great views. Best location in the old centre of Portugalete, literally 2 min walk to Puente Colgante, Town Hall and Santa Maria church.
It’s fully refurbished, with a modern and practical layout, ideal for a large family.
Absolutely just a bed, with a pin to get into the room and thats it, wifi was there, the room was very very small, there were no desk to sit and work,
All in all like a ghost hotel, with nothing else than a bed and a hot shower
would i do it again
no
Welcoming hosts. Spacious, clean and comfortable flat among Portugalete locals. Free parking for our car (potluck for a nearby parking space but we were lucky). A short walk to the metro. A 15 minute walk to the river in Portugalete.
From the moment we arrived and we’re guided into our parking space the service was warm, flexible and impeccable.
Beautiful hotel in a great setting on the waterfront where there is so much going on in Portugaluete!
The hotel has had a complete makeover since our last visit. It has been a very tasteful upgrade with lots of thought and planning going into it. The room was well maintained and the river view and bridge were a bonus.
The place was very clean and the hotel as a whole was clean and large. There was a room for meals and the staff left some food in the kitchenette for visitors to take.
