Cons: Value for money is not worth it.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Fabulous, friendly and welcoming hosts.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: The house is nicely located with beautiful view of the mountines. The hostess is also very nice and helpful though she dosen't speak English. Rooms are nicely decorated and clean. Everything was perfect and the only thing missing would be small fridge in the room, as house is remotely located with not many options to eat or shops nearby.

Pros: Very generous and helpful host. Good to have a kettle in the room with a selection of teas. We arrived early and had beautiful valley views from our balcony.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Our stay here was amazing because the host is such a lovely woman. Highly recommend it. The room was beautiful, the breakfast was fulfilling and the morning view gorgeous. When we arrived late and were looking for dinner, she called down to a local restaurant to ask them to take care of us (which they did very well). The hospitality and care was so touching. If we’re in this part of Basque again we’ll definitely return.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: just the loveliest swiss chalet in the most beautiful valley -- with warm welcoming hosts.... a herd of goats in the orchard next door -- soothing gentle tonk tonk from their bells could have settled in for a week - short drive to dramatic coast for dinner [ forget the village of mungia] and only easy 20 mins to bilbao for the museum-- so much better than staying in the city... best tip for europe travel - find lovely location out of city -- saves all kind of hassles... los globos hotel in sitges -- just out of barcelona -- same kind of lovely refuge.

8.0 Excellent

Pros: Location, views and friendly staff being able to make a cup of tea in the room. Bed was extremely comfortable and the room quiet.

Cons: Shower platform was not a pleasant experience. Space was dark and there was nowhere to place shampoos, soap etc. Plus it leaked over the floor. Menu in ground floor cafe was very limited.

8.3 Excellent

Pros: Excellent breakfast if a bit expensive. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Location was superb

Cons: The room was quite small and dark. Located on the second floor overlooking an atrium, disappointing.

9.0 Excellent

Pros: As the hotel is across the road from the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, some rooms offer a fantastic view of the museum, the Puppy and La Salve Bridge. I was lucky enough to have one of these rooms and to enjoy these sights at different times of the day. Location-wise the hotel is within walking distance to other attractions such as the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bilbao, plenty of cafes and bars, and malls. The room was nicely appointed and comfortable.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Booked room with view overlooking Guggenheim Museum excellent. Fantastic staff from booking in to the excellent staff at breakfast just brilliant. The complete package. Would not hesitate to highly recommend the hotel.

Cons: Nothing

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Great location across from the Guggenheim (10 minute walk from the City Centers, Bilbao is small). This is arguably a 5 star facility charging much lower than comparable places anywhere else. Valet parking service, but remember to go to the alley behind the hotel, where there is an entrance that is much better for dropping off the car, and to unload your luggage. Excellent Gym with very new equipment. Lovely Bar with skilled bartenders.

Cons: The lighting system in the room was a little problematic...... Either the Master was "on" for any lights to work (if Master was "off", could not turn on bathroom lights to shower, while keeping the room lights off so my wife could keep sleeping)....

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Wonderful views of the Guggenheim Museo and a fabulous breakfast served on a comfortable and stylish terrace every morning.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: A treat for weary travelers, this hotel was a bit of respite from the cadence of sightseeing. The rooms were spacious and well laid out. Service was professional and efficient. The details of this luxury hotel were the icing on the cake - turn down service, aromatherapy sleep spray, complimentary robe and slippers. Proximity to the Guggenheim and promenade is unbeatable.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Architecturally very cool. Modern, clean lines. Room was fabulous...great big bathroom, big comfortable bed, great floor to ceiling glass doors that open onto the balcony. Balcony looks over the Guggenheim. Breakfast on the rooftop is not to be missed. Extremely pleasant staff.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Right in the heart of old Bilbao, this is an outstanding location to explore this vibrant city. Plenty of things to do and places to go. You can easily walk to the Guggenheim (it's a very pleasant walk by the river (both banks) and will take you 15-20 mins depending on the pace). Plaza Nueva (or Barria on Google maps) is a stone throw away and visiting the Gure Toki is a must! I think it's the best tapas (sorry Pintxos) place in the city and beyond! The market by the river (a bit south from the property) is very interesting albeit relatively small. Fine products however!

Cons: Rooms on the small side but fine for a short city break.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Brilliant location in the old town. The apartments are well serviced, clean, bright and spacious with a great shower as well. The owners were really helpful and stored our luggage for us after checkout so we did not have to carry it around all day. That was greatly appreciated. As these are apartments no breakfast is supplied but that is not a hardship as it is an easy walk to Mercado de la Ribiera. I would definately recommend these apartments and I hope to use them again as Bibao is a lovely city.

Cons: Free WIFI was good to have, but it would also be good to have some USB or bluetooth connectity for the TVs. But that is a very minor point in an otherwise excellent appartment.

9.2 Excellent

Pros: Location was fantastic, room was well insulated

Cons: Would have been nice to have been provided with basic items, eg. teabags & a small carton of milk to kick start your day

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Great location, well-equipped, very clean apartment. Very friendly and communicative.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Located in the center of old town

9.6 Excellent

Pros: The hotel locates near the bridge to connect the old town and the city center, around the corner to the good restaurants and bars. Satisfactory, clean housekeeping daily. The friendly hotel staffs. Spacious room and the balcony over the walking street.

Cons: Around the weekend, the noise from the square near and the pedestrian under the balcony.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Superbly clean and modern fit out. The manager Inma was superb in organizing to meet me and talking to me about things to do in Bilbao. Location is great.

Cons: The apartment has virtually no natural daylight. You have to have the lights on in the middle of the day.

9.5 Excellent

Pros: The location in the old town was great, easy access from the Tram system.

Cons: There was no air conditioning so we had to open the windows for fresh air and to cool down the room. However it was so noisy outside that we had trouble sleeping as people were out walking and talking on the streets until the early hours. So I would recommend asking for a quiet room.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Very clean and well located.

Cons: The bathroom did not have a window so it ended up smelling quite damp in the whole room.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: A large room in the heart of the old city. Easy to find and easy to walk everywhere. The host was friendy and very welcoming. It's on the first floor in a beautiful old building - but there is a lift, so access is easy. Very highly recommended.

Cons: It's not essential, but there is no aircon in some rooms. There is heating, but it was a bit tricky to cool the room down at night for those of us used to cooler temperatures.

Pros: It was an old farm house converted into a great hotel. The staff were very helpful The walk to Bilbao was easy but very easy to get lost initially. Breakfast was excellent

Cons: Some carpet on the floors would have dampened the sound of people leaving and returning to their rooms

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Even though it was out of town, there was a good restaurant nearby. Lovely view from our room.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: The room was very clean and quiet. The staff was also very friendly, professional, and helpful. The property is an old family farmstead renovated to a modern hotel. The room was small but spotlessly clean and very quiet. We were in a rental car and looking for some place to easily park. The inn is in a location above the city but is only 3-4 km from the funicular which take you directly to the center of the city in 3 minutes. From there it is an easy, pleasant walk to the old city and museums. The view was of the city at night from the hotel is stunning. We had breakfast both mornings we were there and it was fresh and plentiful- breads, cheeses, meats, tortilla, as well as fruits, yogurt, pastries and cereal. Coffee, tea and fresh juice were also included. I would definitely recommend unless you want to be in the buzz of the city.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: good breakfast available, out of town , easy to find

Cons: no suitable restaurants in walking distance

9.2 Excellent

Pros: Excellent breakfast buffet. Helpful, friendly staff. Good communication prior to visit.

Cons: No serious criticisms. The hotel is quite a way from central Bilbao, but its rural location can also be seen as a benefit. You could walk to the Guggenheim in about an hour, and there is an hourly bus service which stops right outside.

9.0 Excellent

Pros: This is a very comfortable place with a great staff, a great breakfast, and a lovely view over Bilbao. It's easy to drive to the start of the cable car and take that down into Bilbao.

8.8 Excellent

Pros: Excellent location if arriving on the ferry from UK, close to the main route from the port. 15 min walk into the old town, which is beautiful with the streets filled with bars and restaurants. The area has a real buzz to it. Only 25 mins, flat walk along the river to the Guggenheim , which is well worth a visit, stunning building with an interesting walk back through the city. First time in Bilbao, but certainly will not be our last. Modern Hotel with drinks and fruit in reception, large bedrooms with lots of toiletries.

Cons: I feel this hotel is mainly used for business and therefore the prices of certain things, ie. parking and breakfast, reflected this but we needed secure parking as it was the start of our trip. Walk back from the town is uphill most of the way and could be uncomfortable during the hottest months.

9.2 Excellent

Pros: Wonderful staff, GREAT Breakfast

7.0 Good

Pros: Breakfast very good. Dinner at restaurant was mixed: good food, but my server both nights was terrible.

Cons: Location a bit removed from main part of town and amenities such as bars and restaurants. See previous answer re: dinner service.

Cons: Some reception staff disinterested. The service at the hotel restaurant where we had dinner was terrible!

10.0 Excellent

Pros: I have been in many hotels in Bilbao because of work and I am sure Hotel Gran Bilbao is the one of the best in Bilbao. The staff is very nice, facilities very clean. Exceptional cuisine, huge selection for breakfast, tasty vines.

Cons: WI-FI conection is working very bad since 5-6pm

8.0 Excellent

Pros: Clean metropolitan business hotel. Has reasonably priced safe parking. Clean efficient hotel. Staff were very nice and helpful. We were given upgraded rooms - definitely exceeded our expectations there!

Cons: Large metropolitan hotel, any services were a commensurate price, so we ate in the town (as you would if not under time pressure). The location and view are not brilliant it is about 15 minutes walk down to city and 20 minutes walk back, much along main road. No real issue for us we liked it.

7.5 Good

Pros: Breakfast very good (although pricey). Location short walk from old town Huge room and bathroom (good when travelling with baby)

Cons: Staff were abrupt and rude on check in desk. Breakfast very good but other menus hit and miss

7.4 Good

Pros: Facilities as they stand we're terrific. Clean, contemporary. Business luxury.

Cons: Staff– a bit disorganized and not super helpful. Individually, they were polite and kind. But I expected more from a 4* hotel. Looked at me like I had three heads every time I asked for a restaurant number or a taxi. Their answer to everything was giving me a map. LOCATION. This is BARELY in Bilbao in my opinion. The hotel is literally located on the exit ramp leaving the city. It barely fit on the map of center city. If you're going for business, it's perfect. But if you plan on exploring the city, get ready to walk, take trains, take buses, etc. I would highly recommend that tourists DO NOT stay in this hotel. It's at least a 45 minute walk from the Guggenheim & most of the tourist attractions. It is KIND OF close to the Old Part, but still a 15 minute walk.

8.6 Excellent

Pros: new hotel, clean and modern.

7.5 Good

Pros: Staff friendly and efficient ...

Cons: All a bit clean , clinical and soulless ..

Pros: The room was very big and clean, the big shower was fantastic I would like to have the same in my house. We could sleep well even if all the city was celebrating a festival. Last but not least the parking was really huge for our van

Cons:

6.7 Good

Pros: staff was okay

Cons: breakfast poor , but okay for Spanish ( Basc ) Standards

8.0 Excellent

Pros: Fabulous hotel. Huge modern bedroom and bathroom. Super buffet breakfast in wonderful breakfast room. I can't speak highly enough. Thr price was absurd, 52 euros for the room, 20 euros for two breakfasts and 11 euros to park in the basement. Obviously these prices reflect the current Spanish economy and tourism, as otherwise my 83 euro stay would have been three times the price. It's a five minute walk to lightrailway station which takes you to the Gug. We walked back to the hotel from the Gug - it took about half an hour including a walk through the old town.

Cons: Absolutely no complaints at all.

Pros: Great location, right in the old town and very close to public transport, with car parking also close by. Walking distance to Bilbao's city centre attractions. Interesting themed apartment.

Cons: We were a group of 10 people and 2 of the rooms were in a separate building a few minutes walk away - we were expecting all of us to be in the same building. Only one bathroom for 6 people.

9.2 Excellent

Pros: Breakfast at the café round the corner was OK but the discount wasn't really worth it.

Cons: Rooms a bit airless.

8.0 Excellent

Pros: Excellent location in the old town, in pedestrian zone, but parking nearby (100m). Loved the movie-themed decor of the place. Free bottled water and Nespresso most welcome. Owner sent some detailed notes on how to find the best parking spot and then find the hotel, as it is not that conspicuous! No breakfast available at the premises - but a fabulous bakery is 50m away and a great tapas bar 100m away max.

Cons: Didn't enjoy my cold shower in the morning - but this was a random thing where the water heater had switched itself off overnight.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Brilliant place. Really good location and good system for getting in the building

Cons: Only negative was that we didnt meet anyone, but we arrived late so our own fault

10.0 Excellent

Pros: We just spent 2 weeks in Spain and this was our favorite place we stayed! Our family of 5 stayed in the Woody Allen apartment and it was breathtaking. The place is brand new, fresh and clean. The decor, details, bedding, toiletries, and accommodations were top notch. The room was not ready when we arrived early in the morning, but they let us come leave our luggage and the cleaning woman was so friendly that greeted us! We cannot say enough about this place, it is a real gem! I wish we could have stayed longer, simply amazing.

Cons: The parking is not close, and the apartment is located on a pedestrian street. It is a short walk from the parking garage, and for being in old town Europe, you really can't complain about that.

Pros: The staff were helpful and friendly and the man on reception spoke excellent English. Dinner was good and freshly cooked

Cons: Thought the breakfast could have been improved having spent 4 nights in paradores it was a poor comparison. Fruit

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Exceptional hotel, best stay during our trip in Spain. Service is first class: we couldn’t find the entrance at night and called the hotel, the staff on duty came out to the street and directed us to the garage. Food is amazing, truly a gastronomic experience. Special thanks to Mr. Taha who made our dining such a phenomenal experience. Mesmerizing architecture: set in a renovated chateaux style Basque mansion. There’s a terrace overlooking the sea. We got a sea view room on the third floor and it was cozy with a spectacular view. I can’t list all the nice things I want to say about this hotel, it just stands out in every aspect. By writing this review, I hope you get a chance to enjoy your stay there as well.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: The location is wonderful, the staff is very welcoming, helpful and friendly, there is sufficient parking space available, and the overall ‘feel’ of the hotel is very comfortable and relaxed. We slept very well and enjoyed a great view on the bay, which offers stunning sights from the room’s balcony. Breakfast was lovely and offered a lot of choice. And last, but certainly not least, the hotel was exceptionally friendly for our two small dogs. Offering toys, a comfy doggy pillow and other surprises. Very nice, and far above the average in Spain.

Cons: The rooms weren’t that large and the offer of the hotel’s restaurant was less ‘gourmand’ than expected and the vegetarian options were quite limited.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Great location from which to explore Bilbao and surrounding countryside. Lively bar/restaurant with good bar menu.

Cons: The signs to the hotel from the main road could have been clearer as the hotel is not easy to tell apart from other nearby mansions.

9.0 Excellent

Cons: CHECK-IN CAR STATION TO OFFLOAD BAGGAGE ONLY 2 CARS. NO LUGGAGE PERSON WAS AVAILABLE. I PARKED CAR WENT INSIDE LOOKING FOR ASSISTANCE & RECEIVED A EURO30.00 PARKING TICKET IN NO TIME. HOTEL DID NOT SHARE ANY BLAME FOR THE TICKET EVENETHOUGH SHORT HANDED IN CAR SPACE LOT & BAGGAGE ASSISTANT.

8.0 Excellent

Pros: The location is ideal for getting to the old and new city. Buses, trams and subway stations are just 10-minute walk away. The Guggenheim museum is within a 10-15 minute walk. I enjoyed being located near the Jardin Plaza, plus many tapas bars. The breakfast was very good, with fresh squeezed orange juice, made-to-order omelettes, and fresh pastries. As a single traveler, I felt safe walking back to the hotel at night, if I used public transportation.

Cons: After a long day of sightseeing, a few more dinner options would have been good, especially for those who do not have the energy to wait until 9 to dine at a restaurant nearby. I ate 3 of the 5 nights at the hotel. Also, I heard people complain about the night club on Saturday. It did not affect me, but important to ask if staying over on a Saturday night.

Cons: Unfortunately no restaurant for dinner but we knew this before arriving so no issue with the property.

7.0 Good

Pros: Great location. Exactly what you expect from a airport hotel.

Cons: Shuttle only runs till 11:30pm so any late flights would mean having to get a €10 taxi for a 2 minute journey.

Pros: Very handy for Bilbao airport and hotel offers free shuttle service. Spotlessly clean. Lovely big thick towels. Very comfortable, good sized room.

Cons: Shuttle took over 20 minutes to pick us up on arrival but they may have been on way back from airport already when we phoned.

Cons: The breakfast was less attractive as it written on the web.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Nice and close to airport for late night in coming flight. Everything seemed new and well maintained. Good breakfast available.

6.7 Good

Pros: Close to the airport. Clean location. Comfortable beds.

Cons: The front dest staff was not useful in helping us navigate how to get downtown to see the museum which was a minimum expectation from us. While the staff spoke English and we appreciate that I felt like their hospitality was lacking. The price was also double what it usual is and we didn't understand why.

9.0 Excellent

Pros: very convenient to the airport with frequent shuttle service; friendly english-speaking staff. Exactly met expectations for a 3 star hotel by the airport. The hotel does have a very modest bar in the lobby but only vending machine food except for breakfast. The next door property, however, has a decent restaurant.

Cons: Terrible pillows

9.0 Excellent

Pros: Staff was extremely helpful! Our room had a nice hot shower, and great views. The rooftop bar was really the highlight. It was Sunday so that was just about the only thing open when we arrived. Later in the evening we could walk to restaurants very easily. Hotel is central and easy to find. Enjoyed it!

Cons: Our room had a desk next to the bed that was a tight squeeze, but fine for one night.

7.9 Good

Pros: Beautifully appointed hotel. The lobby staff and gentleman in charge of the luggage were excellent.

Cons: The room. Even though I made this booking early in the year we were given room 1109 on the 11th floor. This room is right beside the lifts. The air conditioning didn’t work and we couldn’t open the window as there is a great big (air conditioning?) pipe that is noisy beside the window. The room was small, no problem with that, very clean and had some nice touches but the constant clatter of the lifts was uncomfortable. This did stop late at night but started again early. This clatter is joined by that from floor 12 at 9am (I am assuming by renovations.). No warning was given of this. We rang down to reception when the air conditioning wasn’t working and the receptionist didn’t believe there was anything wrong with it. He hung up before I could explain further. The fan wasn’t working. As we were ready to go to sleep it was too late to get changed, go down 11 floors and try to explain in person. Granted my Spanish is limited.

9.6 Excellent

Pros: Roof top bar was cool as were the free on-alcoholic drinks.

10.0 Excellent

Pros: Everything was perfect! We enjoyed the big window sitting area. Excellent value for money!

7.0 Good

Pros: The bar staff was super friendly and front-desk friendly but not overly. The location is perfect, between the Guggenheim and Casco Viejo. The river is RIGHT THERE.

Cons: The A/C didn't work but I didn't report it and didn't realize until afterward that it is touted as a feature. The room's key card took up to 15 tries to work (replaced multiple times). The bathroom lighting is awful - overhead that makes one look terrible. Also there is no fan in the bathroom. The table in the room was worn and sad.

8.0 Excellent

Pros: Location perfect for Guggenheim and old town. Excellent breakfast with lots of quality choices. Well appointed room. All staff we met were very friendly. Plenty car parking at €21 per day. Wine in bar very reasonable in price and quality.

Cons: We had superior room with river view and whilst well appointed, spacious and stylish the dramatic coloured glass bay window was not at all effective in blocking the exterior noise so, as a light sleeper, I had a very bad night. More than 3 coffee pods for Nespresso machine would have been nice.

There is a small bar and a comfortable terrace area for a late evening drink.

Cons: The coffee from the coffee machine wasn't great and I do think a good coffee at breakfast is one of the pleasures of a hotel stay, so this was a bit disappointing. A decently powered hair dryer would also be a bonus.

Pros: Rooms are nice, though little old for that price and rating of hotels. The lovely terraces were only for special events and for 1 v I didn’t take even a coffee on the beautiful terrace with the view advertised on hotel site.

8.8 Excellent

Pros: Great location, minutes away from the Guggenheim and a short walk to the Funicular. Ana in reception was lovely and the guy in the adjacent restaurant very friendly. Considering this is a hostel we did not feel like we were staying in one. We had rooms with their own private facilities and while the rooms were on the small side and a bit spartan for the price you could not fault it.

Cons: Rooms a bit bigger with tea and coffee making facilities. Having said that you could use the communal lounge and kitchen area which we did for a drink.

8.8 Excellent

Pros: Location: few steps to the Guggenheim, 1,5kms to the old town, shops, restaurants are all around. Staff: friendly, helpful, and professional. Efficient: quick checking, answer, help calling taxi at early hour of the day (in less than 3 min) Bar and restaurant is good, friendly people and price. Locals come often make "feel at home town" atmosphere! that I value very much. I tried pintxos at some places in the old town but the quality at Poshtel is better. Mattress, bed, pillow sheets are almost brand new, super feel. Although there is 10beds in a small space, but it looks spacy and fresh.

Cons: Bed: lower bed is too low, normal person cannot sit with head / back straight. Higher bed is squeaking at every movement. It is annoying. Bathroom: bath mat should be present. After every use, the floor is wet, and the user even tried her best still wet the whole room floor. Did not use only look around but kitchen could be better, may be!.
