Hotel Abando enjoys a superb central location, making it easy to explore Bilbao on foot and offering quick access to the airport by car. Many guests appreciate the modern, comfortable rooms, some featuring very large beds and amenities such as coffee and tea facilities. Breakfast receives positive feedback, with mentions of Spanish omelet and churros with chocolate, though some have found the breakfast area quite noisy. On-site parking is available, though it comes at an extra charge.

the hotel is in a really great location. it is comfortable all round and the staff are very helpful. lots of good cafés, bars and restaurants are a short walk away. the breakfast was very good with a wide variety of food choices in buffet style.
The cleaning was poor. I found hairs in the shower and the sink at first arrival. second, the regular rooms were quite small, the tv unit was almost as big as my laptop screen. i think the quality-price ratio is not the best, for what i payed for a 4 stars hotel, the room is kind of basic. shower was not really clean.

Central Stay!

central locationcheap priceswater noise
The location was central. I could easily walk to many attractions. The hotel bar had surprisingly cheap prices for a four-star hotel! I found this detail especially useful after long days of sightseeing. I also appreciated the friendly staff.
I could hear water usage noise in my bathroom at night! It seemed to come from the adjacent room. This noise disrupted my sleep a few times .

There were many excellent upmarket tapas bars very close to the premises. The hotel bar provided astonishingly cheap prices for a four-star hotel, surprising. The variety made the area enjoyable to explore.
