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.

Very good location: just cross the bridge to visit the old town.
Bus stop in front of the hotel.
20-25 minutes walk from the Guggenheim museum.
The only small minus was the pool: it looked much bigger in the pictures.

Location was good- you could walk to the old city very easily. The pool is very small and there are no towels or umbrellas for shade. The bar at night is non existent- no scene or vibe . One sink in bathroom and no counter space for make up etc. bed was clean. I wouldn’t stay here again.

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.
