Everything about our stay was excellent from check-in to departure. The food was superb, the room wonderful and all staff friendly and incredibly helpful. There was also no extra charge for us leaving our car in the parking slot until 4.00pm because of a change in our ferry times. We're booking up again for a return visit in September. Thanks for a super stay.

Location was perfect. Kevin the trainee on the front desk was excellent, friendly and professional. Maria on the other hand was extremely rude and unhelpful. Kevin should give her some training.
Hotel was clean.

A friendly city for tourists. The airport is small and practical. Many good places for any meals. The Gugenheim museum is its main attraction. Walking along the river on wide boulevards is easy and worthwhile. The catalan language, although ancient, is still spoken by most people in and around town - all of whom also speak spanish.

Bilbao is a very cosy and hospitable town.
Bilbao is a very cosy and hospitable town. The central part (Guggenheim museum, Casco Viejo) could be seen in two days, but it also has very beautiful beaches and green vicinities that deserve visiting. We booked a one-day trip to San Sebastian and San Juan de Gastelugatxe, and it was worth it! Pinchos are great!

Bilbao is an exceptional city.
Bilbao is an exceptional city. It is friendly and maintained in very good condition. There are teams regularly cleaning streets, the river and the open spaces. Transport is excellent. Trams and the metro are frequent and cheap. There is a lot to do from walking around the old town or along the river to visiting the Guggenheim. We also visited the Botanical gardens, went up the Funicular de Artxanda. We also had a Pintxos tour and not only enjoyed good food and wine but learnt a lot about Basque history and culture.

We did enjoy Bilboa.
We did enjoy Bilboa. It was a very convenient city to arrive in and depart from. We enjoyed the Guggenheim Museum, the funicular, walking the canal, and the Ribiera Market. It a fun city to walk, as there are old churches and other old buildings throughout the city and charming narrow walking only streets. The mountains up beyond Bilboa give it a nice back drop, and good kicking off place to explore the cave paintings and mountain from. We eat a vegan, whole food diet and were able to find lots of fruits and vegetables in the local markets, and found Naked and Sated which we very much enjoyed.

A very interesting old town.
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.
Bilder Boutique Hotel is a very nice small hotel with sleek modern design and furnishings including plumbing and AC and so on, retrofitted into an old building shell at the edge of Bilbao’s “Casco Viejo” (Old Quarter ). THE main plus about the hotel is it’s absolutely location right where the old quarter begins, but not on the noisy main access street just steps away , nor on one of the noisy bustling squares or intersections. So it is peaceful. Main landmarks and areas of interest are all within a 15 minute walk.
Perfect location across the street from Guggenheum museum, a short walk to the old town along the river. Compact but nice gym/wellness area. The rooms are nicely appointed but not the most inspiring view when looking into the courtyard at the shaft of the giant phallic sculpture. The lavender spray at turndown is a lovely touch. The staff are super and always willing to help. Good parking facilities and quite accessible, not as tight or difficult to navigate as many city centre hotels in Spain.
Very nice historical building, helpful staff, excellent location for the Guggenheim Museum, theatre, Old town etc. You can take a bus from airport to get to the hotel. It takes 20 min or so and costs €3. The bus will drop you just across the street. You should visit some bars in the old town where they serve amazing tapas and wine, and you will eat with locals. There are 13 Michelin restaurants and their prices seem quite good as well. Bilbao is an amazing city and I will definitely come back.
The hotel is centrally located within an easy walk to the CBD of Bilbao and the tourist attractions. Also a short walk to the Old Town, where you can enjoy Pintxos. Our room was large with a separate bedroom to the lounge, kitchen/ dining room. Coffee machine with Nespresso pods, kettle, crockery, dishwasher and washer/dryer. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We were always greeted with a smile. Safe, secure and large parking garage.
A pleasant hotel in the new city centre, on the main street of Bilbao. The hotel has an excellent location, within walking distance of the Guggenheim Museum and the Museo de Bellas Artes. Availability of various types of pintxos bars in the nearby area. Walking distance to the Old Town. The room was spacious enough, equipped with a coffee maker. Very good breakfast. Extremely professional and helpful reception staff.
It was a perfect little hotel in the heart of the Old Town and it's location was super convenient for exploring the city. Our room was a lovely twin room and was really quiet despite overlooking a busy street. The manager who checked us in was really helpful and nothing was too much trouble. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel and we would definitely stay there again on our next visit to Bilbao.
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.
Located on the Paseo Campo Volantin, the hotel is an easy walk to the Funicular de Artxanda, and to the Zubizuri pedestrian bridge over the Nervion, thus very convenient to the great views and great places in the old and new Bilbao. The Hotel staff were most helpful and courteous. Our room was clean and quiet. The breakfast buffet in the cafe/restaurant was an excellent way to start the day.
I picked this hotel because it was near the bus station in Bilbao - we did not rent a car and we were just staying one night. It worked out great. We took the bus from the airport which stopped about 1 block from the hotel and quick walk to the bus station the next day. The area felt safe and we had a nice walk thru the park to the Guggenheim. Would definitely stay here again.
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.
I liked the fact that this hotel was super clean. The rooms are simple but very well equipped, the size is good as well. It is very close to the Guggenheim and about 5 minutes from Gran Via de Bilbao. The historic part is about 15-20 minutes walking. It is really convenient for the airport since it's only a 20 minute bus ride away.
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
Staff is very helpful. Good location - just nearby old town. Tram and bus stops near by. Cafes and bars and grocery stores nearby - no point to take hotel's relatively expensive breakfast. Considering high price levels of Bilbao's hotels Sirimiri seems to have ok price/quality ratio.
Very spacious air conditioned rooms, very contemporary but yet functional design.
Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. private parking facility about 200 m from hotel.
Great location on the river and close to the centre of the old town. Perfect location to discover Bilbao
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.
The first beds that were comfortable as the prior two hotels in Northern Spain (Abba was the worst) had strong springs covered by an insufficiently thin foam pad - image sleeping upon cases of Coke cans, seriously).
Location was about 2km outside the old town of Bilbao,bus just outside the door but we opted to walk in along which was fine …hotel was beautiful & ample parking unground …no problem returning to stay here again
Everything! This is absolutely the best place I have stayed in out of many different sorts of apts and hotels over the past couple of months. Plus, Bilbao is an unexpectedly nice place to visit.
We stayed here as we have to go to Airport early. Hotel is about 9 kms from Bilbao Airport. The room is very convenient and clean. Bilbao town night spot able to see from Hotel.
very good location if you want to explore Bilbao bay foot but still don’t want it to be noisy. outside bar, bar, parking in the hotel, breakfast with a very good variety.
