Very convenient location. Room was nice but a few complaints about the design. The shower and bath enclosure is 100% glass. Mostly frosted but one clear panel directly adjacent to bed into shower and sink area so zero privacy from room. Entry to bath has clear frameless glass panel you walk through and seemed unsafe… easy to accidentally walk into glass wall with edge being frameless especially in the dark. Bar in lobby was never open except for breakfast. Alternate bar on roof had very little shade and limited open hours. But plenty of places to walk to and eat/drink nearby.

I’m could not fault the hotel. Beautiful rooms, friendly and very helpful staff, perfect location for exploring Bilbao. Old Town just across the bridge and then only a 5-10 minute walk to the main shopping area. Couldn’t be more perfect. Will definitely stay again.

There is no nearby parking garage

Parking was far away and a challenging drive to reach! The hotel was very nice but some small things…there is no place in the bathroom for counter space. It is weird that a new hotel would be designed that way. Other than the parking it was a very nice stay!

10 star hotel!

If I could give this hotel 10 stars, I would! It was amazing! The room was spacious and very comfortable. The hotel and room were very clean and everything was so new and fresh. The staff were very friendly and allowed us to check in early which was really appreciated. It's in a very convenient location, close to the market and walking distance to lots of the sites, bars and restaurants.

The hotel was exceptional. The breakfast buffet was incomparable to anything but the Paradors where we have stayed in the past. The location is convenient beyond expectations for its proximity to the old city. Thsi hotel is to be recommended unhesitatingly.
