Excellent location, right on the main Plaza. The lobby almost feels like entering an Art Gallery. They skillfully blended a modern design with the original old stone walls. The room was a decent size and had all the amenities. Very quiet in the evening.

This hotel is in a perfect location in central Bilbao. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was a good size with a luxury bathroom. The icing on the cake was that the staff arranged for some Cava t be left in the room for my partner’s birthday which was a lovely surprise. Definitely recommend this hotel and will return when we next visit beautiful Bilbao!
