Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, offering a lovely view from the balcony. The staff was helpful and accommodating, making my experience very comfortable. However, the dining options were limited, and the price could be considered a bit high.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is superb, within walking distance of friendly restaurants and the main tourist area of Bilbao. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The only downside was the limited dining options for sandwiches. The facilities were top-notch, making it a great value for the money.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the location is very convenient, being right in front of the canal, and the rooms have balconies offering nice views. However, the surrounding area looks a bit dodgy, and the hotel itself is in the midst of a redevelopment zone.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the service was decent. The location was convenient for visiting the maritime Museum but not ideal due to being in a bad neighborhood. The dining options were limited, but the hotel offered some light food. The facilities were basic but satisfactory.

The rooms with a balcony are clean and comfortable, the service is excellent with great housekeeping, and tours/ticket assistance available. The dining experience offers included meals and delicious ice cream. The facilities are top-notch, making it a convenient stay.
I couldn't have asked for a better location; being close to the maritime Museum was a huge plus. The hotel is conveniently situated, away from the touristy areas, and overlooks the charming canal. The setting in this part of town adds to its appeal, making it a great choice for travelers looking for authenticity.
The hotel is located on an island in the middle of the river, close to the maritime Museum, which was a great attraction. The surroundings mainly consist of derelict buildings, but the area is beginning to develop into a trendy spot. The hotel offers a unique and tranquil setting, with easy access to the local metro station. The dining experience is top-notch with high-quality dishes included. The rooms feature balconies, providing a nice place to relax and enjoy the view. The service is exceptional, including attentive housekeeping and helpful tour/ticket assistance. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, adding to the overall comfort of the stay. The price is a good value for the experience offered.
This hotel impresses with its convenient location, friendly staff, and comfortable rooms. The dining could use some improvement, but overall, it's a great value for money.
The hotel is situated on an island in the middle of the river amid derelict buildings, in an area that is being developed, though it could look prettier. The location offers a unique setting but lacks immediate amenities. The service was attentive and helped with housekeeping and tour arrangements. The included dining option featured delicious grilled fish, although there were limited nearby dining alternatives.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were cozy and clean, but the service was lacking. The location was convenient, but the dining options were not impressive.
