Description
This innovatively designed, new Hotel Bilbao Jardines , hotel is very well located for exploring on foot all the main sights of the city, and is close to the river in the old part of central Bilbao. Being situated in a pedestrian street, the hotel is surrounded by the charming atmosphere of the most historic part of the city, yet you can still reach the hotel by car. The train station is also only 5 minutes away. Just around the corner you will find the Santiago Cathedral and the famous Guggenheim and Fine Arts museums are only 10 minutes away. Business travellers will appreciate being just 15 minutes from the Euskalduna Conference Centre, and the desk and free cable/Wi-Fi internet access in the bedrooms. Opened in March 2005, the hotel also offers air conditioning , internet free of charge by cable , and a 21-inch TV in the rooms. If you have forgotten your alarm clock, you can also receive a wake-up call via your telephone, before heading down to enjoy the continental breakfast (extra charge). The room taxes are included in the room rates.
The hotel is located in a great part of Bilbao. The staff was really helpful and gave us lots of great information. The room was always cleaned by the time we came back to the room. Easy walking distance from tram and metro stops. Plenty of restaurants, shops, cafes and bars nearby. A clean, comfortable, relatively inexpensive hotel in the old part of town. We were pleasantly surprised.
This hotel is in a great location - smack in the middle of the Casco Viejo (old part of city) surrounded by numerous pintxos (tapas for the Basque people) - the place itself isn't large and the rooms are well sized for their purpose (the shower was a bit small for me) but they're clean, warm and the beds are very comfortable - they also have free wifi in the whole hotel including your rooms if you have your laptop with you which was great - the tenants of the hotel at the time ranged from students to young families and they weren't at all rawdy unlike some hostels - one reviewer complained that the place didn't have much character but maybe he cannot appreciate the modern clean design of the place coupled with Spanish sensitivity of mixing modern with old - however for the price the whole package is great and you'll also be taken good care of by the friendly and helpful staff :)
The location is superb; the staff were knowledgable and helpful and spoke english;the water was hot; the room was smart, comfortable, large and clean with lovely french windows over the street; and there is a wonderful charcuteria across the street and an internet cafe around the corner .
Very convenient for restaurants, close proximity to the tram.
A pleasure to stay there
