So there I was deluded into thinking I'd reviewed this wonderful hotel, but I hadn't so I'll remedy this now. We travelled around France and Spain for eight weeks and this hotel was in our top three. We had four nights. Relaxing, clean and comfortable. All the staff are real friendly. Bed cozy, air con perfect and great shower and so so quiet. We didn't go for breakfast as we just wanted to have long rests in the mornings as it was our last destination before sailing home. We used their underground car park and it was a tight squeeze as we have a big car and we had acquired a Thule roof box on our journey but car parking in Bilbao is a real challenge; my advice don't go by car without sorting car parking first. The hotel lift thankfully goes to the basement. As we made our way to the hotel it was downhill all the way having come from Jaca. As we got to 1000 yards from the hotel we got the feeling we shouldn't be there. It felt like a tram/bus reserved area, but there was a police car behind us and the lights stayed off. The river was on our left and as the sat nav said we'd arrived it sure didn't look like a hotel entrance. The guy behind check-in about instantly got off his chair to get us into the carpark and I was delighted. The next time it would start was departure day. €18 a night to park. If we return to delightful Bilbao we will be based here and we sure won't have a car and once we drop our bags we'll walk five minutes to get to Swad Himalayan restaurant then all will be well. read more
