6/10 Good

We appreciate the staff, very kind and helpful. Very clean hotel. Breakfast was very disappointing, so poor nothing freshly made, only from frozen and no variety - not worthy for a 4. star hotel

Great location and excellent room

Excellent location - 2 minutes walk to the train station. Walking distance to old town and other great restaurants and cafes as well as lots of options for shopping including the supermarket. Room was excellent - spacious for our family of three. Bathroom even had a large bath tub! Staff were super friendly and helpful.

A very good and clean hotel in a quiet neighborhood, very central to everthing. The only thing that I was missing is option for omelet and there were not pancakes.
Minorma, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable stay

Great location in center of city within walking distance to Guggenheim and also Old Town. Not sure if i would rate it a 4star hotel. Room was small but clean and everything worked.
Dan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room was very pleasant --- not too large, but so well organized and furnished that it worked like a large room. Comfortable bed. Very friendly and helpful staff. Central location. Definitely plan to stay here again when we return to Bilbao. Only suggestion would be to provide a rubberized bath mat --- tub floor was a bit slippery, and tub walls were high.
Claude, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, friendly and modern

Nice, modern hotel in the city centre (but on a quiet street). Friendly staff and quick check in. Had a suite for three people with a central TV wall to offer a degree of privacy for the comfortable sofa bed. Quite minimalistic (all white) but this gave a clean fresh feel. Breakfast was reasonable - free coffee in reception throughout day. Easy walking to all main sights in Bilbao and in the heart of the shops.
Guggenheim 15 mins walk

Great hotel, close to everything. Regrettably the terrace was closed when we stayed so we couldn’t enjoy! Wish we were told in advance.
Erine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The good and the not-so-good

The good: very close to train station, comfortable rooms that are fairly spacious, comfortable bed. Staff at desk were very helpful and friendly. The not-so-good: construction noise in the middle of the night, breakfast had good variety, but quality of some of food (very wet scrambled eggs and undercooked hard boiled eggs) was poor. They ran low on some items at 8am and that were not refilled timely. The breakfast room gentleman was friendly and helpful, but the lady who worked there on our second morning was not.
Lynn, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Simple but great location.

Nice small room with everything you need. Modern decor. Great location close to everything: shopping, the old town, the Guggenheim. Perfect if you arrive by train since it's right by the train station. However, there was a strong smell of air freshener in the room, and when that subsided, a weak smell of mold. The view was of the next door shopping mall. The breakfast was served in a basement room without windows, which was a bit depressing.

Don’t know if we had a bad room or it was coming from outside but it was pretty dusty, the rest of the hotel was actually clean but I have to review my room so yeah But still a good place to be
Raul, 3-night trip

Litt harde madrasser, og det er ikke kaffemaskin på rommet. Men super service av de i resepsjonen, bra frokost og et rent, rimelig og veldig sentralt beliggende hotell.
