We'd rather sleep on the street but actually with the lack of soundproofing, we felt like like we were! This is meant to be a 4 star hotel but it was appalling. In addition to the noise from the street and other guests' bathrooms, the staff were the really standout feature for us. Rude and uninterested when we complained FOUR... more

A reasonable-quality city-centre hotel. My room was large and comfortable, but had only a single very small window that looked out over a small inner space, which was little more than an air-shaft. If the window was left open then kitchen smells were very noticeable. The breakfast served is excellent in both quality and quantity. There is no provision for... more

The lobby and restaurant were nice. However, the room we received was very depressing and not nice. The bedspread was threadbare. pillows old and no covering on the boxspring. Service from the front desk was polite. The location was good overall. The hotel is overated in the star ratings. more

I stayed for one night on business. Nice hotel in a very good location for central Bilbao. Room was very nice (liked the furniture) and nice bathroom too. I guess the only downside is a less than customer-friendly reception. If you can live with that, then this is certainly worth staying at. more

We were looking for a hotel room in Bilbao for a night after getting the ferry to Bilbao. As a family of 5, including a baby, I was finding it near impossible to get a cheap room over the net from any of the multifarious travel/hotel sites suitable for our needs - only one hotel in Bilbao seemed to offer... more

I stayed overnight at the Hotel Abando on a business trip. The room and bathroom were both spacious, with a Kingsize bed. The hotel is well maintained and easy walking distance from most of Bilbao's attractions. The hotel's parking garage seemed secure, and the staff allowed me to park my car there during the afternoon after I had checked out.... more

We stayed at the Hotel Abando in Bilbao a couple of years ago, but since we enjoyed our stay so much, I thought I should write a short review! Having only paid some £45 (€65) we were amazed that the location was so central. We had booked through ---. The rooms were clean and staff were extremely helpful. We will... more

A lovely hotel. Stayed for two nights in a double room with a large bed and nice bathroom. Front desk very friendly. The location of the hotel is located on one of the side streets of Gran Via so the location was good as it was an easy walk to the 'casco viejo' or along the river. Walking from the... more

We have just stayed at the Hotel Abando and it is hotel I would highly recommend to anyone spending a few days in Bilbao. We got an internet deal and it was excellent value. The hotel is in a superb location just minutes walk from the tram, Metro and the River. It is also near shopping, bars, restaurants and the... more
