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!

Room was small but located in old Bilbao which is ideal. Elevators were kind of weird, probably because the building is so old. No closets, so not ideal for long stay.

Our experience here by far is the best during this trip. Can't say enough good things about this place. We will definitely miss it. Wish we could change plans and just extend our stay. Perhaps next time we will come and stay here again. Can't beat this location. Plus complimentary luggage storage. Other hotels charge for this.

Great location! Overall the hotel was fine, but I did get stuck on a few minor details. The room didn’t have an iron or enough “closet” space for two people on a three night stay. The shower door was difficult to secure as water seeped out during showers and we had to use the mat more for puddle control. They staff was friendly and accommodating. And we also got a discount for parking in a nearby structure so that was also appreciated.
