Taste of Pintxos and Culture

Capital of the Biscay province in the Basque Country, the ever-fascinating Bilbao is a vibrant city experiencing constant growth and architectural revitalisation. Don’t miss out on being an eye-witness!

The stunning Guggenheim Museum is an absolute must-see. Designed by famous Frank Gehry, its curvaceous walls hide fascinating gems of modern art. If you enjoy museums, pay a visit to Museo de Bellas Artes with over 6,000 works dating back to the 12th century.

Bilbao has great shopping in the popular area of Plaza Moyua and Gran Via and while you’re at it, make sure to check out the Mercado de la Ribera with fresh, local produce, fish and meat.

Bilbao is the capital of pintxos, the local version of tapas, which is often fancier than its Spanish cousin as Basque people are famous for their love of elaborate cuisine. For more thrills, try patxaran and sagardo - unforgettable drinks, the taste of which will stay with you for even longer!

Whether you arrive for business or vacation when you disembark at Bilbao Airport, with over 50 hotels, guesthouses and hostels, Booking.com has the perfect place for your Basque stay.

Interesting and diverse architecture.

Interesting and diverse architecture. Good food. Very lively on a Saturday night , quiet on Sunday Very easy to get around and into town from airport on inexpensive bus. Only complaint would be that the streets were pretty messy after the fun😂

Bilbao grows on you.

Bilbao grows on you. So many historical and modern sites to be had - Guggenheim Museum, Fingerprint Sculpure, Abando Train Station stained glass, colorful buildings, very cool Azkuna Zentroa cultural center, cheap mini-mart goodies, fabulous dining/drinking establishments like Mercado de Ribera, and so easy to get around anywhere - Tram, metro, bus, and quite cheap.

The Guggenheim was smaller than I expected but had a good collection of exhibits unfortunately restricting visitors from touching the sculptures removes another sensory ingredient to the appreciation of sculpture. The food in Bilbao is slight less exciting than San Sebastian but it still had its wonderful, traditional Basque cuisine which we loved especially at the Mercado del Ribera.

Exceeded my expectations.

Exceeded my expectations. Exciting city with very interesting architecture, good food, and of course loved the museums. Despite not really liking rainy places, I honestly did not mind the fact that I visited Bilbao in February and that it rained almost all the time.

Great stop for a weekend!

Great stop for a weekend! You could definitely see it all in one full day if needed! "All" includes: the funicular, guggenheim and museo de bellas artes, walking in the casco viejo (cathedral, plaza nueva, streets with bars and reataurants, shopping), seeing the many beautiful bridges, even going to see a show at night.

“This hotel is so underrated, the location is in close distance to everything, Guggenheim, old Bilbao, and all the good restaurants. The rooms are so nicely designed and modern and Clean! Especially the bathroom, and the staff really goes out of their way to help you get around. Also is minutes away from the airport by bus. ”

“This place is a great value boutique hotel. The rooms were very nicely decorated, comparable to much more expensive boutique hotels. Each room decorated with a Spanish director's film posters. Location is ideal. Super clean, lovely bathroom, and nespresso machine en suite. Would stay again and recommend to all.”

“This was a wonderful hotel located in the old town. A beautiful renovation of an old building. They also welcomed our dog with a bed and food and water bowls - first time I've seen this in a hotel. Staff was very friendly.”
