I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bilbao. From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is warm, stylish, and welcoming. The staff are absolutely amazing - friendly, helpful, and always going the extra mile to make sure your stay is perfect. You really feel taken care of. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean, and every detail feels thoughtfully designed. The rooms are modern, comfortable, and beautifully decorated, with a creative touch that makes the whole place feel unique rather than just another hotel. What I loved most is the combination of style and comfort. It has a cool, vibrant energy while still being relaxing and cozy. After a long day exploring Bilbao, it’s the perfect place to come back to!

Brilliant hotel. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and rooms were immaculately clean. Spa area was good as the weather was too bad to sit on the roof pool area. Breakfast was great.
