Loved the area near everything. Great room. The only downside is that it didn’t have air conditioning but at least it had a fan.

Fabulous hotel in the perfect location

Absolutely fabulous location. Couple of minutes walk to the piazza. The underground is less than a minute walk. Lots of bars and food places. The hotel is spotless. Staff are lovely. And that bed. Oh my word, I wanted to take it with me to the next hotel! Most comfortable hotel bed I’ve slept in for a long time. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The stairs are not for the faint hearted though!

The hotel was in the heart of Old Town. The room was modern but small. We were hardly there so no issue. Very friendly staff. If you're a walker its perfect. Taxis are close by, 5 min. Walk. All in all a lovely stay.

An old property with no lift, which did not bother us personally, but it may be an issue for the less mobile. Bedroom and bathroom were excellent.

Great location, lots of eateries around, 2 minutes walk to the metro and walkable to most attractions in central Bilbao. Very clean and spacious room. However, no kettle or any tea/coffee facility in the room which was a bit disappointing.

Good bed, amazing shower, balcony overlooking the road and peace of mind for the duration of my stay --- could not ask for more. Everything in the city is in reasonable walking distance. Likely will return in a few days before heading back home.

A great location, walking distance to everywhere. Building is undergoing renovation so stairwell is dark and dingy, but don’t let this put you off…… rooms are fabulous, new and clean. Bathroom sparklingly clean, lots of hot water. Beds comfortable. Room very very quiet, no outside noise at all although street was bustling - very well insulated. Staff lovely and welcoming with good communication. A few things missing from room but I suspect these may come when renovation is complete. ie safe was locked (could have asked for it to be opened but it wasn’t a problem), no drinking glasses, a mini fridge for our water would be good and tea & coffee making would be really useful. Would definitely stay here again and would definately recommend due to location and comfort of room.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, carrying my big suitcase up the steep stairs for me (I didn’t ask them to!). The agreed to us leaving luggage before and after our check in. The room was comfortable with good facilities and a great location. We were at the back of the hostel so despite building works and bars downstairs (at the front of the hostel) we couldn’t hear any of the noise. We’d stay again!

The bed was comfortable, the room practical and the check-in efficient. I like the fact that there is codes on doors (no key to carry). The hotel location is very central. I spend a night there for 66€ so I definitely recommend this place for a short stay in Bilbao!
