Sercotel Ayala is in an excellent location being convenient for both the old town and other attractions such as the Guggenheim. Our room was spacious and very quiet despite facing the street. Pleasant staff. We didn’t have the hotel breakfast. Would happily stay again.

Second time staying here. Asked for the same room, 606, as it was very quiet last time. 606 ready when we arrived. Receptionist sorted the AC to maximise cooling. Modern, clean, a fridge and a safe. Great location. We will definitely be back!

Clean, friendly staff. Decent breakfast and a nice central location in Bilbao. Having the room next to the staff door maybe wasn't ideal but there was only one morning when they were using it.
