Top Zabala Hotel Reviews

Spirit Hotel Gran Bilbao

10/10 Excellent

"Large spacious room and friendly staff with excellent English. Hotel was a short walk into the historic district and we appreciated the large car park on site (decent sized spaces for those with larger cars). "

Axel Hotel Bilbao – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"The room and communal areas were spotless. We didnt use the spa or breakfast facilities so can't comment on those. Our only regret was that we didn't go for a room with a view and had a room at the back which faced the wall and was a bit dark. Also, would be great if the skybar was open a bit later and was a bit bigger as it did get crowded and the bar downstairs wasnt open. Staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel has a fantastic location for exploring Bilbao."

The Artist Grand Hotel of Art

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful hotel in the heart of Bilbao! Right on the water and across from the Guggenheim. It was an instant wow when we walked in, and the staff was amazing! The terrace is gorgeous with great food and wine. Definitely worth every penny and we would highly recommend!"
