Reception: A warm welcome with a glass of chilled white wine on the house right on our arrival! The receptionists were extremely nice and helpful as for restaurant recommendations, ways to points of interest, taught us the history of this ancient building. Our luggage was instantly taken upstairs. Room: We were in the ”extra view” room on the 6th floor - just fantastic! The spacious and bright room (due to 3 huge windows), surprised us with a bathtub and a big, round bed in the middle of the room. On the desk we found a handwritten welcome and 2 chocolates. Bath- and bedroom were outstanding as to cleanliness! The towels far away from the toilet, which I appreciate, as it's the opposite in so many other hotels where the hang so close to it. The bathroom was also spacious and I liked a lot the modern tiles on the wall. The ancient bright column made a great contrast to the noble dark tiles, so the bathroom was a real eye catcher, too. The architecture of the whole building, by the way, lives from the combination of old and new. Breakfast: Instead of a buffet they serve breakfast. There is a choice of several warm and cold dishes as well as yoghurt and fruit. Everything was tasty. Location: Perfect. At the Nervion River, the old town just around the corner, the Guggenheim Museum within 30 minutes of walking - along the nice river promenade. Parking: Only 50 meters over the bridge to the other side of the river. You have to reserve a parking place before your arrival though. The only inconvenience: The hotel does not have a parking place in front of the entrance to unload the car. So we first passed by it and called for help as the traffic was pretty busy and we did not dare to stop. It turned out to be no problem at all: the friendly receptionist guided us back to the hotel, expected us outside and showed us where to stop - right in front of the building on the other side of the lane. We travel a lot and I have to admit that our stay at Tayko in Bilbao was one of our best hotel experiences ever. A place to return and to recommend.
I used to go to Milan and live in this brand hotel, the service is good. It takes about a walk to the old town 15-20 minutes. It is very convenient to go to the city center by bus downstairs. About 2-3 Station distance, there are also food and small bars near the hotel.
🔔 Service: The front desk was very intimate and gave the baby a set of baby showers. The front desk also sent the baby a bear.
🧹 Health: The room is large and clean. Our room is more than 30 square meters.
🚗 Traffic: Downstairs bus hotel on the main road of bilbao because the city is not big. A few steps forward and there is a subway.
Although it is a single room, the area is not small.
The hotel has a first-class location, right next to the airport bus station, on the small square, and convenient to go everywhere. You can walk to the old town and the museum river.
However, although this hotel is a five-star hotel, it does not have a swimming pool. The breakfast is expensive at 26 euros and is relatively simple (by five-star standards).

I needed my boyfriend to stay over while I was traveling and this was the perfect place. This isn't a 5-star hotel, but it did the trick and we were very comfortable - here is why. PROS - Coming from Bilbao Airplane or taking Bus?...: It is close to 2 blocks from Bilbao Intermodal and if you are coming from the airport, this hotel is an easy walk from where the bus drops you off in San Mamés. The location is also SUPER safe. - Transportation: If you look down the street and cross it, you will also see the tram station along with the metro station. - Food?: There is food everywhere. This is Bilbao. Spend 2 euros (or really please buy a Barik card) and go into the city, you won't be disappointed. The best part about the tram is that it goes theoretically left or right. I live close to NYC so I understand it can be complicated, but the system in Bilbao, chef's kiss. - Bed/Room: Pro? The bed/room you get in sleek, modern, and for a REALLY CHEAP PRICE! Please don't hassle your way into spending a lot of money on a hotel in Spain. It is not truly worth it. Just get this place, feel comfortable, and safe. - Staff? There are not many, but the ones that are there will help and accommodate you. You just need to be nice. I say this because I went in to check in and someone was being helped. They weren't that nice to staff, so please remember, we are all human. CONS - Cleaning: I will say, the bathrooms were clean, but the headboard for me was dusty. It might have been that the room wasn't used a lot. But please don't worry, it did not effect my stay considering the price was reasonably cheap. - THE ENTRANCE!: You need to understand, their rating is a 2/5 stars but it is NOT because they are bad, in Spain it is based on what the hotel/hostels have and DON'T have. So what they don't have is a front reception. Listen closely if you are going to go here. Once you get on the street, you will need to buzz into the door as if you are requesting to go to someone's apartment. OR they will give you a code before hand. Once you go in, you need to go straight till you can anymore. Make a left and find the elevator. There you will need to press the

This is an apartment hotel located next to the British company, with subway to the train station and bus station, very convenient. Downstairs and nearby many restaurants. There is a large supermarket on the 6th floor of the British company to buy a variety of food. This hotel has no front desk, but there is a 24-hour online front desk. The only downside is that after booking, I didn't receive any email notifications about how to check in. So we went to the hotel door, rang the doorbell to connect to the hotel's online service, sent us an email, and gave the entry password. You will then need to check in online, you can use the link of the email or have a check in machine. Check in requires a photo of the booking and a selfie. You will then need to fill in the ID information of all the guests. You will receive the room number and password after checking in. After entering the room, there are snacks such as water in welcome gift, . Very intimate. You can download the hotel's app, you can use your mobile phone to unlock it, which is very convenient. highly recommended!
Apartamentos justitos para dos personas, muebles muy nuevos, pocos enseres de cocina. Lo único negativo fue la limpieza del apartamento, solo una PASADA rápida y ya. Pero todo lo demás aceptable, jente muy amable.
Very overpriced and disappointing. We were here for a conference and the price shot up by 9 times the usual daily rate during our 6 night stay and was not value for money. The apartment needs upgrading and is very dated and dingy with only very basic furnishings and supplies. We only had one tiny lamp for our 2 bedroom apartment. There wasn’t enough toilet paper or any basic little supplies like tea/coffee, which is not acceptable when charging €580 per night. The shower is dated and the shower doors do not function efficiently. The washing machine broke and leaked twice which fortunately we were resident at the time and able to contact maintenance otherwise the apartment would flood. The reception desk was non existent and rarely found in the office even though it’s supposed to be manned all day. We repeatedly asked for several days for another key because we only received one in the lock box at the front door when we arrived and we needed two keys for our family as we are on different work schedules and it took 4 days for another key to be given to us. We met many other guests who were at the same conference and they all complained about the over pricing and the low value for money and lack of basic amenities. Kitchen and bathroom need an overhaul, apartment requires completely repainted, and furnishings replaced. Convenient location a few minutes walk from the old town. Building and apartment was clean. Housekeeping and maintenance team very helpful, professional and pleasant.

GGuest UserWe 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.
We were a family of three and got the studio apartment. We stayed for 5 nights and were overall very happy. The people at reception were extremely helpful and nice, Ingrid - if I remember her name correctly- was especially welcoming. They have 24 hour reception and check in and check out was very smooth and easy. They also reply to WhatsApp messages during working hours. The apartment had everything you needed and good cupboard space, iron, small kitchenette, nice sized bathroom with good lighting, daily cleaning service, comfortable beds, ... The location was a three minute walk from the Zubizuri bridge and away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Numerous restaurants and cafes and supermarkets were a minute or two away. I greatly recommend this hotel/apartment especially for families. The only thing I wish could be was a cheaper price. It was a bit pricey but I would go again for sure.
GGuest UserThe hotel is a few steps away from the Guggenheim Museum. It is very convenient to take a walk to the city market and the uphill cable car. The breakfast buffet is relatively good, with hot and cold food. Paid parking in the basement is also convenient. Need to book in advance. The front desk and restaurant waiters are more enthusiastic. A hotel that can be recommended.
GGuest UserThe most successful hotel booked in Spain this time, the room is very spacious, there is a direct water dispenser on each floor, the room has a coffee machine, and capsules are available every day. The hotel's service is also very good and the front desk is very warm. It takes about ten minutes to walk to the subway station.
GGuest UserThe 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.
PParadise35871983028When we first checked in the staff was friendly and helpful, the lobby is cozy and has free water and a coffee machine. Our room was bigger than we expected and came with everything, toothbrushes, shower cap and comb etc. We asked the front desk for an iron and it came within 5 minutes, great service! The shower was really nice and spacious and the beds were amazing. I suffer from insomnia and the beds were perfectly soft and the comforter was so comfortable I just wanted to stay in bed all day. For the price the breakfast was really good, the only downside was that it seemed a little bit understaffed. My favorite part about the breakfast was the pastry selection, the donuts and cakes were amazing, it tasted better than some pastries I bought from bakeries. Bonus points for providing pads and tampons in the women’s bathroom. The location is pretty good, it’s near the main shopping street and an el corte ingles, it’s also not far from the train station.
GGuest UserThe hotel is well located and the staff all extremely nice and helpful. My room was of a good size and the bed extremely comfortable, but there was no water in the room or any sort of tea/ coffee making facilities which was disappointing. There is no restaurant in the hotel which came as a complete surprise, though you can order room service from 17:30 to 23:00 but the choice of food on offer is limited and poor. The ‘bar’ is also anything but a bar. It’s a desk with a bell on it. Ring the bell and someone appears, takes your order, disappears, and then comes back with your drink. No restaurant, no bar, and no in room facilities let down what would otherwise have been a pleasant stay.
AAlexandraI thought the sauna was included in our stay that’s why I booked the hotel.
When I’ve mentioned it to the staff about not having an additional cost to it when you book online, they told me is part of the spa . This is very confusing as if it was part of the spa why mentioning it and not including it in the spa section .
Spa and sauna are not the same and if it’s a cost to it , that should be mentioned.
Anything else was amazing . Also they don’t have a separate cost to the sauna only ! I just wanted to use the gym and the sauna , no spa though! There was no possibility to book the sauna without the spa.
It’s like 20 euros per acces not per day which I thought it’s a rip off especially when you are already booked with the hotel and you’ve paid for your room! Again staff showed no flexibility , it was either pay for something you won’t use or you don’t get it!
Ended up not booking it because I did not want to use the spa , and I thought it was a lot of money (20 euros) to pay for 15 min use of sauna only.
SSHILIThe breakfast was really good. The hotel staff is very good, the lobby manager has something. He always communicates patiently and shares it with other people to know about it. It is worthy of praise and recommendation for everyone to stay here. Within 1 km range you can get to the train station and the coach station. Convenience.
Ppu30heThe location is great. In the core of Bilbao New Town, there is a parking lot on one or two streets. The overall decoration of the hotel is simple and warm. It has just been renovated in recent years. However, due to the old facilities of the building, it is inevitable that you can smell some kerosene-like smell in the bathroom. Dao, it should be a hot water system. The restaurant downstairs tastes very good, stylish, slightly low cost performance, beautiful rooftop scenery, great bartender
