Top 10 Zaka Hotels

Stayed at this wonderful little hotel for 3 nights over the weekend. As a budget hotel, don't expect unbridled luxury, because you'll be disappointed. What you'll get is a clean, compact and functional room, excellent breakfasts, and reception staff that are exceptionally efficient, friendly and helpful, and all speak English to a high standard. Located next to the bullring, it's a short walk to all the major sights that the beautiful city of mk Bilbao has to offer. I will definitely be returning to Bilbao, and this gem of a hotel.

We stayed here for three nights in Mid September and our stay was wonderful. We opted to book a suite and we were so glad we did. Room 10 was spacious and filled with light. It’s also the only room in the whole hotel that has a balcony that can fit chairs and overlooks the sea. Gorgeous! We are at the restaurant the first night here and it was fantastic. The best octopus we have had in Spain this trip. The hotel is close enough to walk to town, but also tucked away enough to feel out of the chaos. Would totally recommend this place for a romantic stay.

The hotel is unique in design, novel, and the front desk service is good. The reception processing speed is relatively slow, the elevator is less inconvenient, sometimes it needs to wait, and the overall stay is quite satisfactory.

The location is very good, I feel that this is a veteran five-star hotel with a strong Basque style design. The suite I stayed in, the room was large, the view was good, and there was a garage in the ground. Maybe the room is not new enough, but it is well maintained. Next to the park, walk to the Basque Museum for 5 minutes and Guggenheim for 10 minutes. I recommend.

I missed having a toothbrush in the bathroom, it is true that we asked for it and it was given to us, I did not like the night reception service, however the guy in the morning, Erik, and the baggage attendant were very nice both two

Great location: just 2 minutes’ walk from Guggenheim (we arrived by taking air bus and we got off at the first stop; 3 minutes’ walk with the help of GPS and we reach the hotel; same for taking air bus for departure). 6-8 minutes’ walk and you’ll arrive at Gran Via; 20 minutes to get to Intermodal for taking the bus to San Sabestian. Lots of places to eat nearby. And we didn’t choose the breakfast inclusive option because we didn’t need a big breakfast. 2 minutes’ walk and you’ll find a place for coffee and a good croissant. Our room was quiet; didn’t hear any noise. Our room had a view of the museum; I assumed it’s an upgrade. Staff were very friendly and helpful. For tourists who want to see Guggenheim day and night, this is it!

The staff is very professional and the hotel is perfect. Breakfast was complete. The staff of the restaurant was very efficient and reactive.

The location of the hotel is superb. The most newest hotel in Bilbao. The parking brothers are super nice. Everyone speaks good English. Four-star hotel. Five-star + service. When checking in, the big brother at the front desk introduced various local attractions and food. When I checked out, I parked the car a lot. Will eat pinchos before coming back, hotel has parking lot for 18 euros a day

We had a lovely 4 night stay at the at Mercure Bilbao Jardines de Albia - Great welcome, Our ‘Privilege’ Room on the 7th floor was lovely very spacious with a very comfortable King size bed, large closet with hanging and shelf space and a large safe. There was a minibar with complimentary water 2 still and 1 sparkling, 2 beers and 2 Coca Cola which was replenished every day. There is a coffee machine. Good controllable air conditioning. The Bathroom had a large walk-in shower. There is a nightclub nearby so there is some noise at night so if you are a light sleeper you should ask for a quiet room. Perfect location - The hotel is 15 min stroll to the Guggenheim museum and its about 10 minute walk from the centres of both the old and new towns, there is a Corte Ingles about 10 mins walk away on the main street and the hotel is just a couple of minutes from the river. The Lobby bar is great and the staff are pleasant and helpful and prices are very reasonable – it was lovely sitting outside having a glass of wine. It is very easy to get to from the airport A3247 bus stop, Journey from the airport is about 20 minutes. Great staff All the staff we met were helpful. Reception is on the 3rd Floor. Breakfast is on the 4th floor with good coffee machines and a great fresh orange juice machine. Thank you to all the restaurant and bar staff especially the manager and also Pedro. The housekeeping was efficient, and everything was spotless. There are so many amazing restaurants and bars in Bilbao serving great food – We were lucky enough to be in Bilbao for the start of the festival and we really enjoyed the amazing firework display on Saturday night. We are already looking forward to returning to Bilbao and the Mercure Bilbao Jardines de Albia.
