Not your average airport hotel
Do not be misled by the pictures, this 70 room hotel is actually a small cafeteria-style breakfast area and foyer on the ground floor and bedrooms on the fifth floor. If you are not keen on the tiny glass elevator over the dustbins, that is quite a climb up an inhospitable staircase (240 steps, to be precise). Our children's room was quite a way from ours, despite our advance request for closeness. This was probably for the best, as the children were not kept awake by the all-night chatting, laughing and singing from other guests (or residents? who knows what was going on on the other floors of this building) echoing up through the building. Nor were they troubled by the stench of fresh sewage that entertained us. They did, however, quickly discover the inviting wide window ledges with fully opening windows (near miss. This was particularly surprising as the windows were modern and had spaces for locks/limitors which could easily have been fitted). Ah well, we can have a cup of coffee. No. The restaurant is only open for breakfast. The tea and coffee making facilities consisted of a kettle, no cups and one sachet of nescafe. Breakfast was inadequate. With one lady to serve and no self-service, it was slow. The options were a ham roll, a croissant or tortilla - and no, you cannot have two items. with nothing suitable for our lactose- and gluten-sensitive child, we had our own cereal and milk, but were told off for helping ourselves to a bowl and spoon from a pile nearby.

The building is very nice, the elevators a bit noisy, but offer a nice view while going up or down. The room was comfortable, the staff courteous enough, though seemed a bit odd. The foot in the restaurant was wonderful.

Great airport hotel
Check in was quick and easy, and arranging a shuttle for the airport when I checked in was simple as well. They took the initiative to call our room in the morning to make sure we were on our way. Having some more information online on the restaurant would be great though, so we could plan for food

The inside of the hotel is not what you would expect when seeing the exterior. The rooms are very roomy and clean and very modern. We stayed our last night in Bilbao before returning home here and we enjoyed it.

we greeted at reception by a very helpful and informative guy who give us all the details re getting to the airport. The room was clean and tidy and comfortable perfect for a stay before or after flights, all good. Oh, wait there was the problem of being woken by a group of young people clearly excited about their trip which is great. However they hotel saw fit to put us in the middle of this group who were running about from room to room shouting laughing and screaming and they even woke me up and I am an extremely heavy sleeper. it was not the young peoples fault more the hotels for putting us in this room in the middle of this group Thanks

I booked a triple room because it was close to the airport for me and my two grown children. My son and i were flying out early in the morning back to Canada and my daughter whom lives in Spain had come from San Sebastián to see us off. When i got to the hotel (which looks like an insane asylum from the outside) he front desk demanded passports from us all even though I was paying for the room and gave a credit card my passport etc. well my daughter whom wasn’t traveling didn’t have a passport with her so he wasn’t going to allow us to check in. This was extremely stressful as we were in the middle of no where late in the evening and language was an issue. After arguing that nowhere on my reservation did it say all guest must provide a passport to stay my daughter ended up speaking to a manager on the phone and finally they allowed use to check in. I will say the room was way better then I thought it would be and very spacious. It’s just too bad the staff was rude and there’s no where to eat late at night. Plus you must check in by midnight for some reason as well.
