Lekeitio accommodation from NZ$99

You'd be crazy to come to Lekeitio and not see the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. The Gran Hotel Domine Bilbao and Hotel Ercilla Lopez de Haro are within a stone's throw of Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.

The Mañuko Benta is 20 kilometres from the central part of Lekeitio. Or, alternatively, the Agroturismo Ibarra is positioned 25 kilometres away. The Arrupe, as well as the Hotel Hospedería Larrañaga, are two other recommended places to stay around Lekeitio.

Don't be a flamin' galah by missing out on the other good things to do and see in Basque Country. Basque Country is marked by rural landscapes, beaches, coastal plains and forests, along with common Basque Country tourist destinations like the old towns and historic bridges. Adventurous tourists can try their hand at mountain climbing and hiking here.

Consider spending some time discovering the Mount Ogono and Mundaka Harbour, which you'll find in Elantxobe, 12 kilometres to the west of Lekeitio. If you'd like to visit Elantxobe, check out the Gametxo and H&AP Rural Merrutxu. 16 kilometres to the southwest of Lekeitio, you'll also find Gernika-Lumo, which is home to the Rusticae Aldori Landetxea and Hotel Urune. The Museo Euskal Herria and Batzarretxea are popular places to see in Gernika-Lumo.

Before you head home, why not spend an afternoon rubbing shoulders with fellow sports obsessives at a local sporting fixture? Plaza de Toros is 95 kilometres to the southeast of Lekeitio. Like to stay near the action? The Hotel Zenit Pamplona and the Hotel Avenida could both be ideal.

Bilbao Airport is the most commonly used airport and is located 35 kilometres away from the centre of Lekeitio. Nearby hotels include the Gran Hotel Domine Bilbao and the Hotel Ercilla Lopez de Haro.
