FAQs about hotels in Bilbao









Taste of Pintxos and Culture

Capital of the Biscay province in the Basque Country, the ever-fascinating Bilbao is a vibrant city experiencing constant growth and architectural revitalisation. Don’t miss out on being an eye-witness!

The stunning Guggenheim Museum is an absolute must-see. Designed by famous Frank Gehry, its curvaceous walls hide fascinating gems of modern art. If you enjoy museums, pay a visit to Museo de Bellas Artes with over 6000 works dating back to the 12th century.

Bilbao offers great shopping opportunities in the popular area of Plaza Moyua and Gran Via and while you’re at it, make sure to check out the Mercado de la Ribera with fresh, local produce, fish and meat.

Bilbao is the capital of pintxos, the local version of tapas, which is often fancier than its Spanish cousin as Basque people are famous for their love of elaborate cuisine. For more thrills, try patxaran and sagardo - unforgettable drinks, the taste of which will stay with you for even longer!

Whether you arrive for business or holiday when you disembark at Bilbao Airport, with over 50 hotels, guest houses and hostels, Booking.com has the perfect place for your Basque stay.

    A wonderful city to visit, which offers everything you’d ever desired to do, from cultural to sports activities, and the food is absolutely amazing. I would recommend “Cork” for a 360 degrees deep dive into the local food and wine or beer, worth at least one visit. Another place called “Mugi” had the best Secreto Iberico and Presa Iberica. The vibe is wonderful. Great ham and cheese selection in one of the old town’s shop, good prices. Beautiful shops all around the whole town. A wonderful holiday.

    Bilbao is easy to get around.

    Bilbao is easy to get around. We used the metro and the tram quite a lot. The Barik card makes public transport much cheaper and it’s really easy to use. Lots of churches, bars, cafes and restaurants. The people are really friendly and I managed to get by with my very limited Spanish! We loved Bilbao and I think 3 or 4 days would keep you busy. We liked the Guggenheim as it’s a bit different. The fine arts museum (free) is worth seeing as well. The highlight for us was the Vizcaya bridge which was amazing, I’ve never seen anything like it! Walk across the top and get the gondola back. Plaza Nueva had lots of bars and restaurants with great food but it does get really busy. A great place to try the Pintxtos is the indoor market which lots of the locals also use.

    Stayed in the Old Town. Great bars and restaurants.

    Stayed in the Old Town. Great bars and restaurants. Great for people watching and I felt very safe. I was a female lone traveller aged 64! Did a lot of walking and the place had a real Buzz about it. Visited the Guggenheim. Fantastic to see and I did go in, felt I had to having travelled all that way, Waste of time that was. I'm obviously a complete philistine because if that's art I'm a monkey's granny! Went on the funicular railway (did that in San Sebastian too). I would go back to Bilbao and liked it better than San Sebastian but I loved that too.

    What can I say, the moment we arrived Lydia took care of us, showing us a map of the city, where to park , how to travel in the city, what to go and see... you name it. The room was more like a small apartment with three separate room; Bedroom, Bathroom and sitting room. The hotel is slap bang in the middle of the old town (Casco Viejo), so the moment you walk out of the door, you have arrived! Tram, Bus and Metro are all in short walking distance from the hotel. Next time I visit Bilbao, and trust me I will! I know where I will be staying!

    I have stayed at the Carlton many times, I like the central location, walking distance to the Guggenheim Bilbao and many cafes and restaurants. My room is on the 6th floor (top level). Although it's not huge, it benefits from having access to a small roof terrace (a bonus). The bed is firm ( a rare find in hotels). The central atrium spaces (with a glass ceiling) is a nice place to meet friends. Breakfast is buffet style, with many options (eggs, meat and fruits) to choose from. Overall, its excellent value.

    Great location, close to the Old Town but you should keep in mind that you'll need to go up the slopes returning to the hotel from the city center. Anyway, Bilbao subway will help you out and Santutxu station is 5-6 mins. away from Occidental Bilbao. Although the hotel is at pretty busy transport artery the district is great with an old church and a pedestrian alley and park right next to it. Friendly staff, clean interior and comfortable lobby that appeals you to have a coffee with croissant in the morning!

    The location of the hotel to old town and Guggenheim museum is perfect, in the middle. The parking was easy, under the hotel for a fee. The staff were helpful and the Lobby Cafe/bar was really nice. We did not get a chance to use the Spa facilities or breakfast. I will return to this hotel again. Bilbao was a surprising fun, small, friendly town. The river walkway and tram to old town spectacular and only a few meters from the hotel.

Never had any concerns about safety. Easy to reach by car. The perfect hotel for a few days to discover this great city.

    The parking for this was the best of any on our two week trip through Spain. The space was large and in the same building as the apartment. Communication from the property manager was excellent. There is a large supermarket across the street from the apartment and the tram and subway stops are a short distance away. The apartment was nicely furnished with good beds and bedding.

    You get a nice student apartment, well equipped and for two or three nights it’s a great accommodation in Bilbao. Metro station is 300 m away and the supermarket is nearby. It’s no four-star hotel but if you want a four-star hotel, you have to pick one and pay it, the Micampus is great to meet other people if you want
