Hotel Hesperia Bilbao

Super location, on the riverfront in between the Guggenheim and the old town, close to both. Really warm welcome and lots of helpful info from the hotel staff. Room was clean and comfortable and well equipped. Ideal spot to stay for a few days in Bilbao.

I had a very high expectation from this hotel and i have to say. They MET my expectations. Politeness and patience of the staff from reception .
Another Plus point of this hotel was the location. Perfect location with mesmerizing view, walking distance from the river. Overall! an experience i will remember forever

Friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Ideal location next to the river and near the Guggenheim. There's a good supermarket and cafes at the funicular to the rear and right of the hotel.

Fantastic location walking distance from all major points of interest. Friendly customer service from Gabriel on check in and clean modern rooms

Great hotel with great service!

This hotel has a great location as you can walk both to Casco viejo or to Guggenheim museum without a problem. Zone around it is also really pretty to walk.

Staff has a great customer service, Arianne was super nice and helpful, gave us great tips on what to visit around Bilbao.

Rooms are spacious and clean, the only thing is the AC is kind of complicated to manage as we never knew how to turn it off/on but it was never an issue for us. We didn’t stay at a room with view to the river but we bet it looks fantastic.

Hotel lounge is pretty and they offer amenities for the afternoon.

Bar has affordable prices.

We would totally come back here!

We were extremely pleased with the hotel. The location is excellent, just a few meters from the Guggenheim Museum and the city’s main attractions. The rooms are comfortable and functional, including a Nespresso coffee maker. The side river views are also appreciated. The water pressure in the shower is good. We used the parking, which, despite the extra cost of €20 due to the area was convenient. One highlight was the reception’s excellent service; they provided us with insightful dining recommendations, always with a willingness to help and a smile. I also highly recommend the breakfast; it’s a very comprehensive buffet.
The only area with room for improvement is the fitness center. It’s very new, but it lacks essential equipment, focusing only on cardio machines.

A really nice hotel with a beautiful view over the river if you have a room at the front side. It is located within 15 minute walking distances to both the old and new city. This all makes the location perfect if you want to be close to everything.

The personnel was friendly and the breakfast was good.

The only tips for the hotel I have are minor: the carpet in our room had a few small stains from cleaning, but that didn't bother us. The hallway on the floors are quite hot, which I suggest gets lowered a few degrees.

Nonetheless a very pleasant place to stay at and would recommend it to anyone looking for a hotel in Bilbao.

This hotel is in a great location, within short walking distance of many attractions. The street is quiet and the riverfront practically invites you to walk.
The front desk staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Ángel in particular provided good recommendations on places to eat and meander about.
The breakfast offerings could have been fuller, but the dining room staff was friendly and helpful. I would say it’s a 4.8.

Absolutely fantastic
We visited Bilbao as a couple traveling with a 8 month baby and a small dog so our choices of hotels are immediately reduced.
On arrival we were checked in by a friendly fast and efficient reception.
When getting to the room we found a beautiful and comfy dog bed, treats, filled water bowl and food bowl so doggie was over the moon.
Also a lovely cot with a brand new teddy bear for the baby.
I have stayed in many 5 star hotels and haven’t received compliments and service like this ever before.
Room and hotel in general was very clean

Staff were all great and we were even allowed to take our dog in a separate dining area at breakfasts,.
All in all the most dog friendly hotel i have stayed in yet.
Located across the river from the Guggenheim and a 5 min walk from buzzing old town.
There is no where else i would stay in Bilbao after my experience there they deserve at least 5 stars

Very good quality and comfortable hotel in a good location on the river embankment in Bilbao. The modern Zubizuri footbridge over the river is a very short distance away, and the Guggenheim museum is in easy walking distance. Our spacious superior room had an enclosed balcony with a lovely view of the river, and a large, good quality bed. Breakfasts are very good as well, and from the large bar area there are picture windows with views across to the embankment. Altogether a very pleasant stay.

Great location! Being next to a bridge saves much walking to and from everyone in the city. It is definitely worth asking for a river view room.
The staff is really professional and they will get out of their way to make you feel good.

We had an excellent stay at the Hesperia Hotel. We had a problem with our booked room when we arrived but Miriam at reception solved the issue immediately. Miriam was very helpful and friendly. We will definitely be back to stay again at the Hesperia Hotel. Big thank you to Miriam for her great service and assistance.

An overused term but this is a truly funky hotel with its coloured glass windows complimenting the art focussed city of Bilbao. Bed and room cool and comfortable and the position is perfect whether walking downtown or heading along the river to the Guggenheim.

great hotel…could not be better placed for everything in bilbao…

very well run by a team of super smiley super helpful people

who can’t do enough to make your stay comfortable…

thank you everybody. :))

try for a room with a river view…well worth the extra…

Hotel is located very nicely, close to the Guggenheim museum and pretty much walking distance to everything.
Room was spacious and bed was big and really comfy. Big bathroom. Room has a coffee machine and a fridge.
Staff is nice.
Small breakfast is included (just coffee, tea, juice and packaged mini croissant and mini cupcakes).
Parking in the paid and expensive, but you can park for free outside during night and weekend.

Very central and at the same time peaceful hotel . Spacious room and spacious bathroom. Coffee making facilities and Nespresso machine in room. Walking distance to Guggenheim museum and old city . Free cappuccino at the spacious lobby . Very good choice.

We had this weekend an excellent experience over three nights.
Great rooms with river view and very spacious as well. Excellent cleaning level also in the bathroom. Really great great service of the people in the reception area including the very kind manager who helped us a lot with all kind of touristic questions and also gave us for free vouchers for the Guggenheim. One of best places we've stayed in the past years and for a fine price thru Travelbird Group in the Netherlands.
We would recommend highly of course after such an experience.

Great hotel within 10 mins walk of both Guggenheim museum and the old town. Clean well-sized rooms with comfortable beds. Treat yourself to an €18 upgrade to a superior room as they are much larger and also feature a multicoloured glass balcony overlooking the river. Skip the €18 per person breakfast and go to one of the cafes behind the hotel (€5).

Really lovely hotel. Perfect location for the Guggenheim museum and only a short walk to the old town… Room was clean and the reception front desk staff we really helpful. Would recommend

Very nice and cozy hotel right at the River and the Guggenheim Museum. The room is nice, they have bath and bathrobes. The hotel is not far away from the old town. We loved the buffet breakfast.
