The good stuff first. Excellent interaction with all staff at all levels. Outstanding breakfast with good selection both from the menu and buffet. If you want anything toasted just ask they are happy to oblige. The mimosas were a nice touch. Second the dissatisfied stuff. From our city view room every night we were disturbed by the club across the road turning out at 4am. There was no lighting when accessing the wardrobes next to the room entry door. The internet TV was constantly cutting out requiring a re boot every 45 minutes. We found this very annoying. All you want in the morning is to have a cup of coffee Twice on a three day stay we had to call Reception because house keeping had forgotten to replenish our supply. Only to be told by Reception “we must have drunk it and any more would be charged for” NO …. HOUSE KEEPING DIDN’T DO THEIR JOB. We were given free parking as compensation which was appreciated.

Unbeatable location

This was a repeat visit as the location can’t be beaten. Overall this is an excellent hotel with a couple of niggles on this occasion - the main one being that we had requested a double and a twin room but on arrival were given two doubles with no communication of that fact in advance (it was not going to be suitable for us and it was just luck that they could move one room and took a bit of pressing on our part). Internal facing rooms are a bit dark and claustrophobic but spacious. Small spa and rooftop bar very nice. Can’t comment on food as we breakfasted at a local cafe.

One of the best hotels that we stayed in while traveling Spain. Top notch and modern facilities, very friendly staff, and a great location with Guggenheim museum across the hotel. Our room was super spacious with separate area for a big bathroom and shower. The bar on the top floor and restaurant on the ground floor were both great. Overall a very pleasant stay in Bilbao and Hotel the Art!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Artist Grand Hotel of Art in Bilbao, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The hotel is a true masterpiece, perfectly located right across from the Guggenheim Museum, offering stunning views that you can enjoy right from your room. The modern decor throughout the hotel is both elegant and artistic, with clean lines, stylish furnishings, and a calming color palette that lets the art shine. And speaking of art—it's everywhere! From the breathtaking 26-meter-high sculpture in the atrium to the curated pieces in the hallways and guest rooms, the hotel truly lives up to its name. It felt like I was living in a gallery. My room was spacious and beautifully designed, with floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out over the city and museum. Waking up to that view was a highlight of the trip. The rooftop terrace was another gem—perfect for a quiet coffee in the morning or a cocktail at sunset with panoramic views. The staff were warm and professional, and the overall atmosphere was sophisticated yet welcoming. If you love art, design, and exceptional comfort, I highly recommend staying at The Artist Grand Hotel of Art. It's more than a hotel—it's an experience.
