Hotel Mercure Jardines de Albia

Location is great, 5 min to main shopping street, 15 min to old city and Guggenheim museum. Room was very big and exceptional for traveling with kids. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. In house parking is handy.

Outstanding hot breakfast. Location was very good. For walkers, virtually any part of the new or old town can be reached within 25 minutes if a direct route is taken. The river is only a block or two away, and walking places via the river route might add another ten minutes or so to the trip. Abundant restaurants and bars are about 2 blocks south of the hotel. The hotel was very clean, unusually quiet, and had an excellent shower.

All the hotel staff are so friendly and helpful and made the stay so nice. The housekeeping staff cleaned the room to a very high standard every day. The location of the hotel is very good. Very good value stay for the quality of hotel. I had a massage in the spa and it was excellent. The bar had a nice atmosphere. Good breakfast. Highly recommended for a stay in Bilbao.

The location was excellent for walking and exploring. The spa was pretty special, thermal jacuzzi pools for only a small additional cost. The room was simple and clean with tea and coffee facilities that I appreciated.
