Hotels near Bilbao Abando Station, Bilbao

The hotel is in a very good location, facing the bridge in the core area of ​​the old city and surrounded by a wide area. The opera house is in front of the left, the riverside park and the church are in front of the right, and the subway hub is next to the church. It is only 1.6 kilometers along the riverside park to the Guggenheim Museum. This section is the most beautiful promenade, and of course the traffic at the door is also very convenient. The hotel room is not big, I was a little worried before, but the layout design is relatively reasonable, so it feels good, but the wall cabinet above the tea place is sharp-cornered, because the space is not big, I hit my head twice. In addition, as a four-diamond hotel, there is no napkin box, which is not used to it. Slippers must be brought by yourself, toothpaste and toothbrush can be asked at the front desk, capsule coffee, tea bags and water can also be asked at the front desk every day if you need them (only one toothbrush cup is provided, but the cup has the charm of urban steel sculptures (see picture). The breakfast variety is small but enough, the restaurant layout and service are good.

We had a lovely 4 night stay at the at Mercure Bilbao Jardines de Albia - Great welcome, Our ‘Privilege’ Room on the 7th floor was lovely very spacious with a very comfortable King size bed, large closet with hanging and shelf space and a large safe. There was a minibar with complimentary water 2 still and 1 sparkling, 2 beers and 2 Coca Cola which was replenished every day. There is a coffee machine. Good controllable air conditioning. The Bathroom had a large walk-in shower. There is a nightclub nearby so there is some noise at night so if you are a light sleeper you should ask for a quiet room. Perfect location - The hotel is 15 min stroll to the Guggenheim museum and its about 10 minute walk from the centres of both the old and new towns, there is a Corte Ingles about 10 mins walk away on the main street and the hotel is just a couple of minutes from the river. The Lobby bar is great and the staff are pleasant and helpful and prices are very reasonable – it was lovely sitting outside having a glass of wine. It is very easy to get to from the airport A3247 bus stop, Journey from the airport is about 20 minutes. Great staff All the staff we met were helpful. Reception is on the 3rd Floor. Breakfast is on the 4th floor with good coffee machines and a great fresh orange juice machine. Thank you to all the restaurant and bar staff especially the manager and also Pedro. The housekeeping was efficient, and everything was spotless. There are so many amazing restaurants and bars in Bilbao serving great food – We were lucky enough to be in Bilbao for the start of the festival and we really enjoyed the amazing firework display on Saturday night. We are already looking forward to returning to Bilbao and the Mercure Bilbao Jardines de Albia.

It looks like a historic hotel with a very good location, right in the city center and has its own paid parking lot. The reception staff are very friendly and enthusiastic, and the service is in place. The room is large, clean and sanitary, but the facilities are a bit outdated. The hotel's buffet breakfast is very rich, but there is a lack of vegetables. I mentioned it to the service staff, and they brought a plate 👍. It was a pleasant stay.

Very good hotel with very friendly staff. We had a beautiful, big room. It was very clean and everything looked new. The bed and pillows where very good. It' s 10/15 minutes from Casco Viejo by foot. And a 15 minute drive to the airport. Would definitly book again.

Perfect location overlooking the river (virtually next door to the Conde Duque), a 15 minute walk from the Guggenheim. The room was spotless, quiet and very comfortable. I went for the B&B option - the buffet breakfast was excellent, including a glass of cava, if that's your thing! The staff were helpful, efficient and friendly seemingly able to switch between Spanish, English and German. As seems to be the norm these days, the rooms have USB points, so UK visitors don't need to bring an adaptor to charge their phones.

Excellent location...views of the estuary. At reception they give you all kinds of information... The breakfast was excellent... Just a small suggestion... the wardrobe in the room... very small... you can only hang clothes in one part... it measures less than 45 cm. Just a couple of coats and a jacket... and little else.

The location is great. In the core of Bilbao New Town, there is a parking lot on one or two streets. The overall decoration of the hotel is simple and warm. It has just been renovated in recent years. However, due to the old facilities of the building, it is inevitable that you can smell some kerosene-like smell in the bathroom. Dao, it should be a hot water system. The restaurant downstairs tastes very good, stylish, slightly low cost performance, beautiful rooftop scenery, great bartender

I thought the sauna was included in our stay that’s why I booked the hotel. When I’ve mentioned it to the staff about not having an additional cost to it when you book online, they told me is part of the spa . This is very confusing as if it was part of the spa why mentioning it and not including it in the spa section . Spa and sauna are not the same and if it’s a cost to it , that should be mentioned. Anything else was amazing . Also they don’t have a separate cost to the sauna only ! I just wanted to use the gym and the sauna , no spa though! There was no possibility to book the sauna without the spa. It’s like 20 euros per acces not per day which I thought it’s a rip off especially when you are already booked with the hotel and you’ve paid for your room! Again staff showed no flexibility , it was either pay for something you won’t use or you don’t get it! Ended up not booking it because I did not want to use the spa , and I thought it was a lot of money (20 euros) to pay for 15 min use of sauna only.

The hotel is very well maintained, the bed is very comfortable, it is not in the center but you can walk there, if I have to make a complaint it is that the heating was very high.

A pleasant surprise this hotel next to the San Mames stadium, close enough to many points of interest in Bilbao. Very clean and with everything you need in the room and good quality as well. Breakfast was excellent with everything you could want, local specialities, champagne and wine, orange juice freshly squeezed, hot chocolate, a wide range of special teas, home made cookies and pastries, everything so tasty and diverse that it was a very difficult choice. The staff everywhere in the hotel was polite and helpful. Highly recommended for services and quality.
