Radisson Collection Bilbao

Great central location. Well appointed comfortable and attractive room. Very friendly and helpful staff.

When booking, I read both very high sbd very criticsl reviews so I had an open mind. We stayed in a Jr Suite on the 3rd floor. Quite spacious and very quiet. The building is dark (in downtown area with other taller buildings around) but our room had light and there’s a 6th floor terrace (fab) for drinks snd snacks. The staff were the best: answered all Qs, helped w/reservations, reserved taxis, etc. The lication was perfect: a block from Old Town, across the street from the main train station, a pleasant, easy 15-minute walk to the Guggenheim (passing by nany nice stores, plazas, banks, eateries), a 5-min walk from the river boat tour company, across the street from a very useful department store to buy anything you needed/forgot and across street from a metro stop. We did not use or see the pool or spa facilities. The restaurant wasn’t great (ate dinner once there) bc menu very limited thiugh fois was delicious. Room service adequate and the burger and fries were the best I’ve eaten anywhere abroad-delicious and good value for $. Previous reviews citing the “sketchy” neighborhood must gave refereed to the train station a block away but all train stations are going to be less glamorous than a high class hotel area. I really liked our stay at this Raddison — not the newest of their hotels or the most glamorous (ergo, not the 2x more expensive hotel across the street from the Guggenheim, but it’s a great value for location, staff, and easy stay.

Stiligt hotel med klass. Rum med mycket bra sängar och fint badrum, AC dock något ojämn.
