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 were there for one day, it was great for the purpose, just a quick trip day + remote work.
I wanted to make this review specially for the unforgettable staff. The people who assist us were always 5 stars - with the garage car parking situation, with last minute help with specific concerns, suggestions ands tips for Bilbao, and even a late tea (which I was feeling super sick and there was nothing open). I have to say: TOP location and TOP staff, the hotel itself is ok.
Excelent location, is lovely and quiet rural hotel with a very friendly staff.
Our room was very confortable and had a beatifull view, the beds were conforable and the the bathroom was perfect.
The hotel is 10 mins by car from the Funicular Artxanda, where you can leave your car in a free parking area. The trip to Bilbao City only take 5 min . This is a great plus, so we didn't worry about parking in the city.
The breakfast was amazing!
We loved Bilder Boutique Hotel, where we stayed 7 nights on our trip to Bilbao. The Hotel is located on a great site, close to train and bus station and the old town and the bridges, all in a walkable distance. The room was excellent, recently renovated, the stuff was very friendly and we could communicate in English with all of them. We will visit Bilbao again and choose to stay in Bilder Boutique Hotel!
The hotel is located in the old town of Bilbao, and you just walk out onto the street for wonderful places to eat and explore, with an easy walk to the Guggenheim along the river. The room itself was a good size, immaculately clean with a comfortable bed. Considering it was a third-floor room above a reasonably busy street the room was really quite soundproof and dark with the shutters closed.
Nice location, as only 20 minutes walk to a tapas and a lookout that has a view over the city, with a the funicular railway nearby that takes you straight down the hill to the edge of Bilbao, a brief walk from the Guggenheim Bilbao museum.
Room fittings were very modern and was clean. Lots of convenient parking space.
Affordable parking near Guggenheim museum was useful to know about.
The Gran Hotel Domine is one of my favourite hotels. The staff are amazing, helpful, proactive and always smiling. The location is across the street from the Guggenheim and we were greeted every morning and evening with beautiful views of this astounding monument. And of course Puppy! The food is good, the atmosphere is good, the location is fabulous. What a great place to stay!
Small Boutique style hotel, nice modern, spacious and clean room overlooking the river next to the old town and a 10 minute walk to the centre. Great foe exploring Bilbao. There is a tram stop 1 minute walk away which takes you around the city. Staff were very nice and helpful. Nice bar/restaurant on the ground floor and reasonably priced. Would definitely stay there again.
Fabulous hotel! Room was huge as was bathroom! We travelled with our pet and a dog bed, bowl and goodies were provided. Staff were so friendly and helpful throughout hotel. Good hotel car park. Hotel is a 10 min walk downhill to the old town of Bilbao. 77 bus takes you up and down to the town. Great service! Would stay there again without any hesitation.
They should have a coffee maker in each room and some free water in the fridge for the guests. They need bigger TVs in the rooms. The one in my room was too small, which was strange. I stayed in many hotels during my visit to Spain and here was the only place where the TV was small, other than that i enjoyed my stay here.
Perfect location on the border of Casco viejo and Abando, walking distance of most of Bilbaos treasures.
Very comfortable and clean rooms, great amenities such as coffee machine in the room, fantastic towels, dead sea toilettries and more.
Staff very nice and helpful.
Just the hotel you would want to stay at
José's apartment was a wonderful place to stay. Right in the beautiful old town, but in a quiet location right near the market. The apartment was clean and well-appointed, with comfortable beds and furniture. Would recommend for anyone staying in Bilbao, especially if you want to explore the old town.
The experience was extraordinary! The staff were so nice and warm! And the cleaning was every day, and rather than great!! If I went Bilbao again, I'd like to book Hotel SIRIMIRI again. Another thing is about the location, right beside the old town!! So convenient to travel around!!
We had a large room on the eighth floor with a large balcony and great views of Bilbao. The room had everything one needed and the hotel was very well placed for walking to the old town and cathedral, to the indoor market, to walks along the river to the Guggenheim museum.
Comfy hotel with friendly staff. Although it had been decorated well, some of the details were a little tired - scratched walls, etc - but generally it was nice. The area was ok and it was walkable to old town, but it wasn't my favourite area of Bilbao that I've stayed in.
Charming and well-appointed apartment with a nice outdoor space, walkable to the city centre with free parking nearby. It was a great base for us and our two dogs, who were welcomed, to rest after a ferry journey to Spain and enjoy the highlights of Bilbao.
The location was very convenient for us. The staff were very gracious and helpful, the room was pretty good size compared to others I have stayed in while traveling in Spain and the hotel and room were all very clean.
Amazig hotel with great architecture and design, great location near Guggenheim Museum ( 5 minute walk) and a great park. Delicious and lot of variety at the breakfast!
