The Occindental in Bilbao is a 15 minute taxi ride from the Airport. The rooms are spacious, bright and the beds are very comfortable. The staff are very helpful. We had breakfast both mornings and it was very tasty and well prepared. There is a gym attached to the Hotel which we chose to avoid. The Hotel is in a fantastic location. A 10 minute walk takes you the Metro station . The station is one stop away from the Old Town Centre stop. This Hotel ticks all the right boxes and is one I would recommend to any would be visitors to Bilbao.
We stayed two nights. Rooms are basic, decor different shade of brown which I disliked but my husband liked! The outdoor pool is lovely, open at 9am. Skip the breakfast as the cafe in the lobby is cheaper and friendly.
Nice hotel Relatively close to centre. Staff were lovely. Breakfast and dinner great. Only issue is that I chose it for the pool. However there are very few sun loungers... So most people had to put a towel on the floor. Shame.
Nice hotel close to several bus stops and the metro station and 2 parks. Room was basic, bathroom was a good size with large shower. Could have done with a mirror at the desk or area in the bathroom for vanity items. Bar area large and friendly, drinks fair priced. Didn't make it to the spa which is 20 euro per visit but the outside pool is large and free.
Lovely find. Location is walking distance to old town. But the local vicinity has a number of nice places to eat and drink. Be prepared, as walk into town is down hill. But walk back is via number of steep uphill routes. Hotel was clean, staff very friendly and accomodating. Served some nice food. Outdoor pool was clean and very welcome on the hot days. Parking, roughly 20 euros a day and plenty of spaces. Would highly recommend.
