Great location to visit Bilbao. Riverfront and across from the Old Quarter. Walking distance to all the Pinxtos bars. 1 mile from the Guggenheim Museum, but the cable car is across the street. Breakfast is really good with Cava being poured. The gym is better than most hotels with free weights and pulley machine. The gym has its own shower and bathroom. Overall, great stay and location.

Brilliant hotel. Staff were very welcoming and friendly and rooms were immaculately clean. Spa area was good as the weather was too bad to sit on the roof pool area. Breakfast was great.

Nice hotel close to old town

The staff were amazing and the hotel very nice, close to old town. My only 2 negatives were the breakfast wasn't great - eggs were very wet / inedible and selection not very good, and the bathroom design is really weird, so you can see your partner showering / hear them using the toilet (no door!), which gives lack of privacy. Otherwise a pleasant stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I felt quite welcome by Sandra at check in and very safe during my stay. Breakfast buffet and coffee service was very good. Walkable to all of the sites but the tram from Ribera Market was a good alternative to the Guggenheim in the rain. The room with a view of the Nervion River was worth the rate. I will look for other Axel Hotels in cities I visit in the future. Highly recommended!
View of river from room on 4th floor.
Same view at night. Peaceful!
