Relaxing stay in a busy city
Sat Nav took us straight there, then car parking very easy. Very comfortable room for 2 night stay. Nice large shower bathroom. Easy walk down to river to explore. Regular trains along the front. Short walk to the amazing Guggenheim Museum. A variety of restaurants nearby and all the main shops. Good choice of full buffet or small breakfast. All staff very friendly. Easy run to ferry port.

8/10 Very good

Conveniently located. The beds and pillows are very comfortable. The air conditioner wasn't working so the hotel requested that we opened our window at night. The cold breeze entered but also the typical noise of the streets (drunk people shouting, brigades cleaning the street, etc.). Everybody deserves a second chance, we loved Bilbao and most likely will return to Abando hotel.

6/10 Good

Central location right in the heart of the city. Room was quiet at the back of the hotel. Air conditioning didn’t work and only a small window to open.

The noise level outside was very high all night long. I had to open the window to get some air due to the lack of air conditioning and the noise was ridiculous!
