Silken hotels in Bilbao, Basque Country

"Got a room on 9th floor and it was modern, airy, spacious, quiet, and clean. Above average for what I paid. Comfortable bed. Nice having a little fridge in the room as well. Hotel location worked out perfectly for me. Close enough to walk to Guggenheim, museum, Old Town, but not so close to tourist sites that prices are high. Many cafes, grocery stores, and other useful services right in the neighbourhood. Not knowing Bilbao when I booked, this ended up being the perfect location for me to explore the town and avoid most of the tourist congestion. Would definitely choose to stay here again. Only caution is that it’s near the football stadium, so if there’s a match on it can get very busy (and noisy) in the area."

"Excelente Posición "

"Very nice facility with excellent service at front desk. The airport shuttle is very convenient and had no trouble making a 7AM departure. The breakfast is super and starts at 5Am. This is an ideal hotel to use if you have an early flight the next morning or are arriving late to Bilbao Airport. It is not close to central Bilbao."

"Excellent stay at Illunion San Mames. The hotel feels new, thoughtfully designed, clean and is convenient. "

"Incredible experience. Best location!! The service was incredible and the breakfast was very good. We had access to their exclusive area - Level - and loved the lounge offerings and cava throughout the day. Will highly recommend and would also come back"

"Fabulous location. Easy walks throughout the town! Great rooftop bar and excellent breakfast! Great housekeeping and evening turn down. Loved our stay here! Excellent staff service throughout the hotel! "

" The views from the top floor were wonderful. Our room met our expectations in every way. The shower was definitely tricky and it was impossible to avert flooding the floor. "

"Fantastic hotel! The room was beautiful and clean, the staff were helpful and friendly. Great proximity to the old town, the market, restaurants, and public transportation. Roof top pool and bar was excellent - would definitely recommend!"

"Excellent hotel, with very friendly staff - especially the lady who served me dinner my first night. I forget her name. The hotel was a bit hard to find at first, but once I got there I realised there's a metro stop just a 2 min walk away. It's only one stop from the old town then. Highly recommend this place."
