Perfect for our 1 night stay in Bilbao. Friendly reception, our room was called Montse, large king size bed, clean and comfortable. Based in the centre of the Old Town, within walking distance to all the main tourist attractions. Definitely recommend and would have stayed longer if time permitted.

Great location, quiet at night!

Easy to check in. We arrived during reception hours and wanted to leave our luggage prior to check in and were allowed to check in as the room was cleaned and ready! Room was cleaned daily and we enjoyed little touches like replenishing coffee pods for each day. Would certainly stay here again!

The Pension is in a central area of Bilbao okd town, within easy reach of a Metro station or the bridge across to Gran Via. The room was small, but modern with a modern bathroom. It is ideal for a short break in Bilbao.

Pensión is in the middle of the old town surrounded by many options for eating & drinking. I liked that you had an access code so didn’t have to carry around. Some of the furniture items within the room had seen better days & could do with upgrading, however the bed was comfortable. The aircon made a buzzing noise regularly but we got used to that. It was efficient at cooling.

Great location, clean, friendly

Brilliant location in the old quarter, a hop from the cathedral, close to the market and bars/cafes. Easy check in, Netflix!, quiet apart from the other residents chatting loudly early in the morning (why don’t people appreciate others may still be asleep??!)
