Top Santiago Cathedral Hotel Reviews

Barceló Bilbao Nervión

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel - super useful staff and even able to check in early! Lovely stay"

Hotel ILUNION Bilbao

10/10 Excellent

"Nice staff, comfortable rooms, serviceable breakfast and great location for exploring Bilbao also very close to the fotball (soccer stadium)."

Occidental Bilbao

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is great! Loved the location - it was close enough to the city center for easy access but far away enough that it was quiet. The room was nice and spacious. Wished the pool was open as it was quite hot but understand that they close it for the season."

Mercure Bilbao Jardines De Albia

8/10 Good

"Great location"

Hotel Sercotel Coliseo

8/10 Good

"We stayed for one night en route to San Sebastián. Clean room, quite basic in style and not very cosy but comfortable and suitable for the quick night we were there. Staff very helpful. Quiet and in a good location to walk to restaurants and sites."

LETOH LETOH Bilbao

8/10 Good

"This hotel is located in the Casco Viejo, a vibrant and fun part of the city. Our room was very nice with a modern, hip vibe. I enjoyed it more than my husband as he thought it was too dark and the bathroom too small. Even though our room faced a busy walkway, the room was quiet and the bed comfortable. We enjoyed the location and meandered through the historical area visiting many pintxo tabernas and shops that were amazing. We stayed 2 nights after we departed from our cruise and were very happily surprised by Bilbao, the Guggenheim and our stay at Letoh Letoh."

Hesperia Bilbao

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, wonderful view, excellent value , plus the on site restaurant exceeded expectations. Will not only stay here again when in the area, we will be considering other Hesperian properties when we next visit Spain."

Hotel Tayko Bilbao

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel"

Axel Hotel Bilbao – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, perfect for old town, train station, river walks and food market. We were impressed by the hotel and its welcoming vibe. Breakfast was plentiful. Spa -sauna, steam room and large jacuzzi - were great. Didn’t use the rooftop pool or bar. WiFi & tv channels worked well."
