“great accomodation in an ideal area for seeing the major sites in Bilbao”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Double or Twin Room (1-2 Adults)
- • Stayed 1 night
location was ideal. All major attractions and sites and areas of interest were within a few minutes walk. Main rail station was about 3 minutes walk and numerous tram stops and metro stations from 4 to 10 mins walk. Staff very pleasant and room was lovely and spacious with everything that you would need available. Breakfast was good and it varied from day to day.

“in general a very pleasant stay”
- • Leisure trip

- • Double or Twin Room (1-2 Adults)
- • Stayed 3 nights
well, it was my birthday on the arrival, a bottle of wine or sth would have been highly appreciated( I always get one at a hotel) . A girl at the reception knew about the birthday,but no reaction , whatever..... the room was great.
1.You will definitely not find a better location,just impossible(some hotels on booking.com advertise to be very central, I saw a couple of them, and am so glad that did not believe them)this one has the BEST location. 2.comfy beds, nice staff, a cozy room,a balcony,shops, restaurants around, the museum 15 min stroll. 3.my advise is- ignore the negative comments about this hotel, they are written by someone who, either have nothing to do, or they don't know what they want, or they are just negative people in general. I have been to sooooooo many hotels , different stars,different types, and can say what is what, this one is a very good one, not sure about the other rooms though , but mine had one of the best views ever( central Xmas tree was just in front of my room)( ask for room 407), it is fabulous, I did not hear noises or whatsoever.

Bedroom furniture starting to look a bit shabby. We booked 4 doubles rooms 3 being occupied by singles only 1 room out of the 4 had tea and coffee making facilities. Bar and lounge on 6th floor but there was no bar! Unfortunately as we were on the 5th floor and the breakfast room was on the 6th noise from there could be heard from 6:30 am.
The staff were friendly and helpful. Good adequate breakfast. Very clean rooms, comfortable beds. Good size bathroom with large rain shower. A safe in the room. Hotel in central location.

We originally tried to drive in to dump bags then return the car to the car hire depot. This proved nigh on impossible with the local road system, but that isn’t a reflection on this highly recommended hotel.
