Always wanted to stays in a Pension and this one was perfect. Loved our room (Chardonnay 21). It made you feel at hotel with a private bath. Wasn’t expecting amenities yet they had them and more… toothbrushes and bath salts. Frig and coffee maker in the room with a common room with espresso, micro, etc. Bed was comfortable with a top sheet and american pillows. We rented bikes and went to wineries. Great for a run on the Camino de real. Lovely public pool for laps as well. Cute bar downstairs and great restaurants on the plaza. A must stop for Rioja. We will be back!

Agustin did an amazing job in providing excellent customer service.

Excellent location. Outstanding breakfast spread available. Very quiet and clean. Staff very helpful.

Excellent choice and presentation at breakfast. Exceptionally pleasant and helpful staff. Superb location for Old Town , and Ensanche and transport.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a hotel in Bilbao for three nights and my experience was fantastic! The hotel's reception personnel Diana and Ingrid were very welcoming and helpful from the moment we arrived. They provided us with great recommendations on things to do and see in the area, as well as tips on the best restaurants and pintxos bars to visit. Our room was also very comfortable and well-appointed, with everything we needed for a pleasant stay. It was clean, spacious, and had a beautiful view of the city. The location of the hotel was perfect, with easy access to all the main attractions and just a short walk from the city center. The hotel amenities were also great and the staff was always friendly and accommodating, and made sure that our stay was as enjoyable as possible.

Location!!!!!! Loved being around the action and beautiful buildings. Staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was pretty good too! Tram pick up was right there for us to use and train station was super close too so made it easy for us.

The hotel is clean, safe, centrally located. The staff is welcoming and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay very much! The parking discount was especially welcome.

Great location in the old part of the city. Excellent transportation. Very good view to the river. Paid parking only 300-400 meters away.

The location is excellent for enjoying everything the old town has to offer within a stone's throw. The breakfast was varied and tasty, and our balcony view was great.

Very good location, in the "Casco Viejo" (old town), close to almost everything. The room was comfortable and clean and the staff were very friendly and gave us lots of valuable information about what to see, where to eat, etc.
