The location is superb if you like a place with a view, far from the bustle of Bilbao and a sense of bourgeois history, this is after all where the very rich of Bilbao´s industrial revolution built their mansions, a curious mixture of British stately home and Basque rural arcadia. Only but is that the Ria gives a not so... More

I happen to be there for 3 nights with room overlooking the port. The hotel is located in a very nice part of town and about 20 minutes from Bilbao. Since I was there for business in the area, the location was perfect but if you plan to stroll more in Bilbao then I would consider another choice. The train... More

This hotel is in the beautiful area of Getxo Spain, right across from the water. If you want a relaxing, wonderful Basque experience that is eludes the unbearably hot Spanish summers of MAdrid or Southern Spain, this is your spot. Down the street from a number of beaches and near numerous vibrant and very chic towns, his hotel is a... More

This is a small boutique hotel, probably lacks some details for the money required, really you pay the location and the spectacular views. Try to get a seaview room!! Service is OK, cold but effective, room confortable with good bathroom, breakfast is ok, garage is worth (13€/day), a la carte restaurant is very good quality but expensive. Dinner is better... More

nice hotel in Getxo, north of Bilbao. We had 2 rooms - garden view and a Bay view. Both quite small. Garden view is actually a street view room - hotel is on the street with the relatively heavy traffic. So the garden view room is very noisy. IN the bay view room you do not hear the traffic which...

This hotel is located on the harbor north of central Bilbao in a resort community that was clearly developed in the late 19th early 20th century by wealthy folks who built grand villas along the embarcadero. The hotel is located in one of these villas, and while the renovation into a boutique hotel is a little too predicable of type,... More

This is a stylish, sleek and yet very comfortable modern hotel in an beautifully converted old Basque style mansion out in the quiet harbour-side suburb of Getxo. If you want a more relaxing base to visit the urban goliath of Bilbao, this should be your choice. Staff are uniformly friendly and helpful, speak good English and will happily book your... More

This hotel is most probably the best place to stay in Bilbao. Nice view, proximity of Bilbao downtown. It is t rue That it is not right in the city center but close to spots you don't visit when staying in the city. The restaurant is good and the service at the right level. I recommend it.
