Top hotels in Iralabarri
voco Bilbao City by IHG
"Reception staff very welcoming and helpful. Room very clean and comfortable with good a/c and roomy shower. Nice to have water in the room replenished daily, but there is no fridge. Breakfast good, with hot options to order. Only downside is the somewhat run-down area immediately around the hotel. ..."

"Clean and efficient. Location is 15 mins to Guggenheim, 10 mins to old town centre. Not quite in the centre of things, but still quite walkable. For the price paid it was excellent."
