“not as handy as it seems”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 March 2006

people found this review helpful

No citicism of the hotel itself: the room was nice, the food was excellent and the staff were helpful BUT - its location is a major drawback. It's in an industrial area with no nearby bars or restaurants. It's only close to the airport if you have a car or a cab driver who knows the local roads. Going around the motorway makes it as expensive to get here as to travel into Blbao itself - and you don't have the option of the bus. Best regarded as a business traveller's stopover.

“Not as Near As I Thought!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 August 2004

Arrived at this hotel late in the evening. I booked it for one night as it was advertised as an airport hotel and we were collecting the hire car at the airport the following morning.

It wasn't that close to the airport and it cost 15 euros each way for a taxi to take us there and back the next day.

It is situated in a rather run-down industrial area with very few places to eat dinner. The hotel restaurant itself was closed, as it appears many are during August. They go on holiday!

The hotel itself though was excellent. Rooms were very clean and everything you need for an overnight stop was provided.

The staff were friendly, helpful and spoke good English. The barman even offered us a lift [after he finished his shift at 9.30pm] to a restaurant he could recommend as long as we could get a taxi back! Very kind and helpful!

No criticism at all of the hotel - just that it wasn't near the airport as I had expected.
