Top hotels in Ibaiondo
Latroupe La Granja
"A really reallly nice hostel, each bed had its own lights and outlets. The cafe/lounge is very nice and breakfast is worth the 8 euro. Only downside is that noise travels quite easily through the building and there was a large group of teenagers having quite a lot of fun late into the night lol. ..."

Radisson Collection Bilbao
"No hot water for showers after 9.30am, bedrooms could do with additional soundproofing. Kept awake by people in the streets at 4am. Lovely hotel for the most part and great location, but for the price point, some things were a let down"
