Room was clean, spacious and modern, coffee machine and city view. Excellent breakfast buffet and sensational gym: a lage, well equipped modern training facility. Public transport directly in front of the hotel. Large car parking, although network connection (needed for EV charging) is poor on parking level -4 and definitely needs improvement. Otherwise, the many EV charging spaces are worthless…

Rooms spacious, all services housekeeping reception and breakfast great. Nice hotel and base to explore Bilbao. A 15min walk into town and back up the hill again to hotel though bus stops outside the hotel, if walking isn’t viable for you.

This property is conveniently located just outside the old city area with a city bus stop right outside the hotel and the tram a short walk. Big shout out to the front desk for getting us into our room early was we arrived from an early morning flight at 11am!! The breakfast buffet was fantastic- I highly recommended it! The staff stored our luggage at the end of our stay and was very helpful with recommendations !

Located up the hill away from the old town, this hotel is perfect for those wanting something away from the hustle and business of the centre of Bilbao. Taxis into town are readily available and can be picked up for the return from many ranks around the city (except during a thunderstorm as everyone stays away!)The staff are wonderful and friendly. Gluten free options for breakfast are plentiful

Great stay!
We had an excellent stay at HGB.The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was excellent and definitely worth the price. The room was very clean and comfortable. The location is not ideal, but not bad, either, and for the price it's worth walking a bit more to get to to where all the Bilbao action is.
