“Good Location - Nice Room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 April 2010

We stayed in the NH in other cities in Spain before and this one was of similar standard. Good size room with extra roll away bed put out for our young child. Location wise its a little out of town, but right on the Gran Via, so you are really only 10/15 minutes walk from the Guggenheim (or a 3 minute stroll to the Tram which for something like 1Euro brings you to the Guggenheim or beyond into the Casco Viejo/Old town in a few minutes). We would often walk in and get the tram back later in the evening. Staff were relatively friendly. One quibble was the internet, which sadly was not free in the room but it was 'free' in the lobby (once you got a code from reception and then it was only valid for 30 minutes). We didnt do breakfast in the hotel, but there are plenty of breakfast places a couple of minutes walk to experience. Did try the on site cafe just for a couple of coffees and it was fine too. Good location if you want a slightly quieter, slightly further out of town location, very easily accessible by tram and only a few minutes walk (5/6 blocks) to the main Plaza (bus to airport, Metro etc) and the beginning of the main shopping area of the city.

“Great hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2008
2
people found this review helpful

Stayed here for two nights after one night at the rather inferior Silken Indautxu. We had two superior rooms booked and one was smoking and one non-smoking as requested. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. There wasn't a great view but as were out and about most of the time this wasn't important.

The bathroom was large and clean with beautiful toiletries.

The weather was quite cold and wet for our stay so coming back to the lovely warm rooms was welcome.

The location is great, right on Gran via within walking distance of the Guggenheim and the shops. There are lots of very tiny bars in the area that get very full especially when Atletico Bilbao are playing at home as the ground is just around the corner from the hotel.

The staff on reception were friendly and helpful. They recommended some restaurants to us and the one we chose was excellent.

Just around the corner is a pub called the Winston Churchill where the barmen put on a good show making the drinks.

I would definitely stay here again if I returned to Bilbao.

“Bland and soulless”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 August 2008

Overnighted here whilst on the way back from Santiago di Compostela because we wanted to see the Guggenheim. Clean, functional, but terribly terribly bland. Parking a bit of a nightmare too. Not one of the most memorable parts of the stay.

“Pleasant stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 June 2007

people found this review helpful

I stayed here for two nights 22-24 June, 2007 for business purposes. The hotel is located at the Gran Via, the main street near to Plaza Sagrado Corazón. It's very close to the congress building. Along this street a lot of shops. The Guggenheim is at 15 minutes walking distance.

Nice, quite spacious room for European standards, two comfortable chairs, wireless internet expensive (17 EUR for 24 hours). Airconditioning was not working properly, but lucky enough outside temperature was not too bad. It is a good business hotel and tourists will probably like it too.
