A very interesting old town. Camino de Santiago markers can be spotted on some paving slabs between churches. River trip is worth while and the architecture of the Guggenheim is stunning. The park near the Fine Arts Museum is very relaxing.
Try Pintxos for lunch and try the salted cod if you dare!

Bilbao is a small city so 3/4 days is plenty to see all the main attractions. There is a great range of restaurants to choose from, many do not serve food until after 7.30pm and many close during the afternoon. The Guggenheim and Fine Art Gallery are worth a visit, also take the Funacular to get a great view of the city, this is just beside the Old Town. We took a trip by metro out to Getxo for a day by the sea and this was well worth the trip.

I liked everything.
I liked everything. The transport system was excellent, metro, busses and trams. The people were friendly and Bilbao is a laid back city, no one in a rush. The bars/cafes, restaurants, etc were great and very reasonably priced. There is plenty to see and do, Guggenheim museum and San Malmes stadium tour were two of the highlights. The parks are fab to just sit and relax and the coast is just a 20 minute metro ride. The funicular ride is worth it and the view of the city from the top is fantastic. The old town is a maze of narrow streets with shops, bars/cafes and restaurants. Again a short ride away on the metro. The Baskian restaurant/brewery in the main shopping centre serves authentic Basque food and is very reasonable. The Wicklow bar in the centre of the city is the place to go for a great draught pint of Guinness in a proper glass, small, but always popular and a friendly welcome by the owner, Mick. The only down side that I found was that there are not many public toilets, but you can always dip into a bar/café and maybe another tipple and some tapas! I will definately return.

Excellent place for a long weekend visit.
Excellent place for a long weekend visit. The city has been given a good upgrade on public areas and there are very nice walks and spaces to chill along the Nervion river, the old part of the town or the new city.
Good transport system and good connection to the airport and train station.
Great place for pintxos and chiquiteo (tapas and bar hoping) as well as modern art (guggenheim museum really stands out), or just simply chill in a nice urban setting. Plenty of shopping spots too.

The Guggenheim of course, but the city is elegant, bright and bustling. The bridges alone are worth going there for. We ate at small cafes and pincho bars of which there are countless numbers. There is an underground metro and tram routes, but we walked. There is a pleasant walk along the river.

Bilbao is a beautiful city set on the river , lots to see and do when there and you definately need 3 days to cover it all , we went out to the bay of biscay on one of the days and it was worth it ,we travelled on the orange line to Niguri got off there walked the coast line and got back on metro at Areeta back to abando where out hotel is. My main tip is try to get a main meal in the middle of the day as we found it hard to eat at night apart from Tapas bars which really didnt suit a gluten intolerant person in the party .
The hotel team was very friendly and helpful for every request. There were also nice personal touches which came as a nice surprise (for example handwritten welcome letter written in the language of my national card as well as a note on my birthday although I didn't specifically mention to the team I was celebrating my birthday). The hotel is also in a great location and the room and amenities were high end but without creating a stuffy atmosphere. I would definitely come back to this hotel next time I go to Bilbao.
We highly recommend Hotel Abando, This hotel in the New town, unbelievable great location, easy walk to all famous places, shopping and restaurants. When you walk out the hotel, turn left you got all sorts of stores, cafes and restaurants, the staff are friendly and provide excellent services, good size room, great shower and excellent quality of toiletries. Bilbao is a perfect town to stroll around, full of beautiful architecture historic buildings, we would love to come back and stay in the Hotel Abando again.
The place is ok, is in a nice area in Bilbao, like 20 minutos walking to the old town and as well 25 minutes walking to reach Guggenheim, it has some nice bars and restaurants around if you want to have your breakfast there, If you come with a car you have a parking in the hotel and as well a free parking streets 15 min walking distance, we park there and as Bilbao is a safe city we brought our car there for 3 nights, 0 problems.
The rooms are ok, confortable mattress same for the pillow.
The apartment was very spacious and well laid out, It is in a good location in Bilbao old town although the adjacent streets seemed nicer than this one. It is very quick to walk to some of the best restaurants and bars. Close to Carrefour market which was very convenient. Host was very nice and helped us with the luggage. The apartment was nice and cool when it was hot outside. Overall, it is a very comfortable place to stay and convenient to see and eat in Bilbao.
Location was perfect because it's close to everything. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, they are kind enough to recommend restaurants and other attractions around Bilbao, even the transportation and maps how to get there. We were the first occupants of the hotel after they opened a day before we checked-in so the everything was so clean and fresh. We truly appreciate the hand-written welcome note and the goodies on the bed when we enter the room.
We had a great stay here at the Hotel Miro. The location couldn’t be better- just a few minutes from the Guggenheim Museum. Our room had a great view of the museum which made it extra nice. The hotel is also beautiful, with a modern design and lots of art everywhere. We got a package deal with breakfast and 2 tickets to the Guggenheim which was a great value. We would definitely stay here again next time we visit Bilbao. Highly recommend!
The location of the hotel to old town and Guggenheim museum is perfect, in the middle. The parking was easy, under the hotel for a fee. The staff were helpful and the Lobby Cafe/bar was really nice. We did not get a chance to use the Spa facilities or breakfast. I will return to this hotel again. Bilbao was a surprising fun, small, friendly town. The river walkway and tram to old town spectacular and only a few meters from the hotel.
We were given a free upgrade at check in which was a fantastic surprise especially as our stay was a mother daughter birthday trip!
Room was lovely and spacious, view of the river really worth it.
Breakfast was a good buffet selection of hot and cold foods.
Hotel is in a great location to explore Bilbao, just over the river from the Guggenheim and a short walk to the old town. Would definitely go back!
It was a nice location, just a short walk to the old town and Guggenheim museum. We stayed during our wedding anniversary and got a free room upgrade, a bottle of wine a a box of chocolates which was a very nice touch.
The room was very clean and the breakfast was really good.
We thought it was a good value for money and we would definitely recommend this hotel as a place to stay in Bilbao.
The service from the reception was beyond expectations. They messaged me in advance and accepted my small request with a smile. The service from the staff was excellent . The place is clean and taken care of very well. They explained very patiently even the smallest doubt i had being a first timer in Spain. They speak English well. The lobby was a nice place to sit with a lot of good vibes.
Excellent location as travelled via coach. The hotel is located directly above Bilbao Intermodal station and entrance is around the corner.
All tourist destinations are within walking distance - 2 mins to San Mames stadium, 20 mins to Guggenheim, 30-40 mins to old town.
Swift check in and very nice room, modern and beautiful with large flat screen TV on wall.
Comfy bed and superb shower.
Comfortable and clean hotel with a great location in the “Old Town” of Bilbao. It’s within walking distance to the “Fish Market” which has a renovated wing dedicated to Pinchos. Here you can find many varieties to sample, without having to tour the city.
Also 100 metres away from the Green Tram, which is cost effective and stops at most tourist attractions
The hotel was in the perfect location for exploring Bilbao. There was a tram stop just around the corner and the main train and subway station were just a short walk away. There were lots of restaurants and lovely boutique shops in the immediate area.
The room was beautiful and had everything I needed and I found the staff very helpful and friendly.
I liked the fact that this hotel was super clean. The rooms are simple but very well equipped, the size is good as well. It is very close to the Guggenheim and about 5 minutes from Gran Via de Bilbao. The historic part is about 15-20 minutes walking. It is really convenient for the airport since it's only a 20 minute bus ride away.
Such a beautiful hotel. We loved everything about it! It was centrally located, with a great view out to the river. The lobby was large with such friendly receptionists that welcomed us to Bilbao! The room was elegant and large, very modern and top-notch! The breakfast was fabulous, the best in our three-week stay in Spain! Kudos!
This was perfect hotel for 1 night stay pre ferry trip home to uk
Good location as on edge of town. We walked in in about 15 mins downhill and taxi back after lovely meal in Bilbao old town. Would def stay here again
