Hesperia Bilbao

In a great location just 10 mins walk from Old Town and less than 5 mins to Gugenhheim just along the river bank. Has a nice modern feel and staff very welcoming. We asked to leave our bags until check in just after 1pm and as the room was ready we could just check in. The room was spacious with full wardrobes and a huge backroom with walk in shower. The room did look a little careworn in places and was an inside view over a bit of overgrown wasteland but was quiet. The only downside was the hotel was very warm but the air conditioning wasn't on in the whole building so room temperature was too warm. They did provide us with a plug in cooling unit which helped though. I would recommend this hotel and will stay again

We absolutely loved our stay! From the moment we checked in, Manuel at reception gave us such a warm and welcoming start. Our room was spectacular — the stunning river view alone was worth every penny! The earth-toned decor created a calming atmosphere, with a fun pop of color and a cozy seating area that added a unique touch. We were especially impressed by how pet-friendly the hotel is — they provided a dog bed and bowls, which made traveling with our pup so much easier. As a tall person, my husband really appreciated the spacious 2m king-size bed — such a rare and thoughtful feature! Room service was prompt and absolutely delicious, and the location couldn’t be better — just a short walk to both the Guggenheim and the charming old town. Breakfast was also a highlight — fresh, varied, and tasty. Lastly thanks to Asier for a smooth check out and restaurant recommendations:) We’ll definitely be coming back!

The location of the hotel is unbeatable. We got a room with a river view and loved sitting by the window. Most sights are within a 10-20 minute walk. Breakfast was good, and the staff we interacted with were all lovely. Our room was a good size, the shower was great and it was nice to be able to use the empty mini fridge to store our own food. Wifi was strong throughout the hotel. The AC worked perfectly, it's not on when you leave the room but it took only a couple of minutes to cool the room down.

The location is ideal, and the parking convenient. Sadly we arrived in the evening and had to depart very early to catch a flight, so we did not have an opportunity to use the amenities of your hotel, or even to try the breakfast. I expect we will return when we have more time to tour the city and enjoy your hotel to the full.

We absolutely loved this hotel...the location was exceptional. By the riverfront, near the museum, Calatrava bridge, metro, downtown and the tram. Great eating places nearby. The location while near downtown, is on the mostly quiet/residential side of the river. We found delicious breakfast options nearby so we didn't eat at the hotel. To top it all, Jose Carlos in the reception desk gave us excellent recommendations on how to go by ourselves to San Sebastian on a day-trip that turned out and awesome experience. He also went over the recent history on the redevelopment of Bilbao, plus tips on where to eat and what to see. Thank you Jose Carlos!
