I liked this hotel : Fantastic situation, nice hotel layout, good breakfast, balcony in room and view over Bilbao over the river. Staff were efficient. Family room a good size for once. It is a little run down in the rooms and quite a bit of noise from the road. Exercise bike and power shower broken, not that I minded. |

Good access to the city centre, shopping and restaurants. Comfortable room and bed. Although the bathroom made good use of space, the lavatory was placed far too close to the wall to be able to sit on ! Also at night the hotel was very noisy as other guests returned to their rooms late. The hotel needs to be more clear on car parking arrangements - we were given a ticket by the hotel, but had already parked our car in the underground carpark, only to find that we should have presented the hotel's prepaid ticket to the attendant at the time of parking. We scrapped the hotel's arrangement and paid the full price in the end. Checkout staff were not helpful in resolving the issue. |

The location was very nice. The location in the old part of town was very interesting for walking around and seeeing sights. The shower was terrible. Could only get burning hot water and very little of it. Made bathing challenging and unpleasant. |

The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. We arrived in the middle of Bilbao festival and the advice we were given on where to eat was excellent. Everyone in the city was very friendly. We will definitely go again. The hotel design is great and it is well located in the old town. Parking is a short walk away. Although breakfast was otherwise good it was disappointing not to have fresh orange juice |

the location, within excellant distance of both the old town and the newer areas across the river. Friendly staff. the glass doors between the room and the bathroom, didnt shut completely and gave reduced privacy. |

The staff was friendly and always gave us great advice. The room and the bathroom are comfortable and wide, there are two computers in the lobby for surfing the internet, free of charge. Location is perfect, right next to Casco Viejo. |

The location within the old city is wonderful for strolling. The room was a little tight but totally acceptable. The Guggenheim is about a 15 minute walk past all the city shopping. Bilbao is a fabulous city. |

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Free bikes were available which made our stay more pleasant. The decor is stylish but the finishes need renovation. Large room, comfortable beds, very clean, quiet, central and the price was excellent - would definitely stay there again. |

The location is excellent and staff is friendly. These make up for the decor. It wasn't to be trendy but doesn't hit the mark. |

the staff was very nice and the modernity of the hotel's design and furniture. also, it was at a central location, easy access to the tram to take to guggenheim. many complications with the shower. also, the elevator situation was a bit strange (have to take one to get to another that leads to the room...) |

The hotel looked rather tired and there were splashes on the wooden pannelling that have obviously been there for a while. The first room I was given had a strong smell of smoke evn though it was supposed to be non-smoking |

Great location, convenient to tram to Guggenheim, internet in lobby, pets allowed at no extra charge Room not very clean, fixtures were all loose and "falling apart," could hear everything from hallways and adjacent rooms, very slow check-in due to staff incompetence and difficulties with English. There was a computer in the room which would have been nice, but it did not work. |
