It has good choice of hot and cold selection. 2) close to factory outlets if you like shopping 3) there is a Chinese buffet (the wok) on the same street near the convention... More

We booked the Hotel for a 1 night stay with both our 2 labrador dogs. The Hotel staff were fantastic and they not only were very welcoming to us, but also gave a gift pack to each of our dogs. Really nice large bath after a long ferry trip was lovely.

Situated some way out from Bilbao, fortunately the metro systems are easy to navigate and run till quite late. Service in the hotel was much better during the day, the breakfast at 15 euros each was okay and you could ask for a few extras to be cooked, but is expensive when Bilbao has so many places to eat. The... More

Have used this hotel for stopping overnight after arriving at Bilbao from Portsmouth. It is relatively easy to find coming from the ferry terminal and is close to the main motorways to enable a quick start to be made in the morning. Clean pleasant rooms and a very handy underground carpark make it a good place to start or end... More

All hotels in Bilbao were busy so we booked this hotel approx. 7km from Bilbao city centre. It cost € 18 to get to the centre by taxi. It is an excellent hotel at a reasonable price. Breakfast for € 14 was worth the money. The restaurant way above average quality and better than what we could experience in Bilbao... More

Stayed there a couple of days during a business trip to the exhibition centre. It is very close by, which is convenient. This part of Bilbao is easily accesible through the metro. The Barakaldo city centre is perhaps less exciting than the main one, but there are some restaurants. The hotel was clean with normal sized rooms. I had working... More
