Great Location to Explore Bilbao.
The hotel has a great location by the river. It’s close to the footbridge that crosses over the river and from there it’s just a short walk to the Guggenheim, as well as the shops, restaurants and bars of the city centre.
positive:
River View and Suites Worth the Splurge.
Guests say river view rooms are well worth the splurge. Suites have interesting, modern layouts and are large and comfortable. Guests especially enjoy that the windows open to get fresh air.
