20 minutes walk to old city town, new hotel but no atmosphere at all, lots of one night staying tourist on their way to somewhere else. Rooms with small windows, and in depressive color: mustard, no art on the walls. Very small choiches for the breakfast, we stayed 5 nights (pre-booked) but no change of items for 5 days. More

We spent a pleasant two nights in a Junior Suite. What I remember most about the hotel was the stunning breakfast setup on the roof of the hotel. When the weather is nice, it's heaven. And unlike many European buffet breakfasts, they had a cook making eggs and omelets to order. Staff is young and enthusiastic and eager to help,... More

Excellent hotel. Friendly helpful staff. Very modern and well-designed throughout. Good business centre. Easy access from airport - come out of arrivals, get on bus immediately outside and get off at the first stop, which is 2 mins from the hotel. Only costs €1.40 each. The hotel is directly opposite the Guggenheim, so you only have to cross the street... More

Great things: If, as we did, you're going to Bilbao to visit the Guggenheim then this hotel is in the best location - right opposite the Guggenheim. We paid a bit more to have a Guggenheim Club Room, which has stunning views onto Frank Gehry's extraordinary design. The hotel is really stylish, with super cool fittings and design throughout. The... More

It's a very convenient hotel to the Guggenheim. Pleasant and efficient staff. Good view onto the Guggenheim. That said, the room was not comfortable. Shaky bed, terrible shower, uncomfortable furniture. Does swanky design have to forgo comfort? More

Very helpful staff. Our first experience was with Miguel who helped us with the bags, parked the car, gave us a map and told us the good places to go - he was superb and very friendly. Check-in was efficient and welcoming. The bedroom was contemporary and spacious with two large beds side by side, TV, mini-bar, Safe and plenty... More

2 days on business trip. Really good hotel and location. Staff couldn't be more helpful. The terrace for breakfast was great but at 25 euro too expensive. All in all good choice in a super city More

We stayed in a Guggenheim View Junior Suite (upgraded on check in from a Guggenheim view room) for two days. We were blown over by the smiles and service. I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. It was our first hotel during a two week tour of Northern Spain and France and stood out for excellence. More

We stayed in the Gran Hotel Domine twice, once for 3 nights before our trip to San Sebastian and once for a single night on the way back. We stayed in a Guggenheim Club Room on the 3 night stay, which was spacious and had a view of the back of the Guggenheim. The room was really nice, minimalist and... More

Good location close to the river and of course Guggenheim - the rooms with a view are worth the extra. Interesting lobby area, friendly, very helpful service and excellent breakfast buffet. An easy and pleasant stay - maybe closer to four stars though. Airport bus easy and fast - for a group of five better than taxi. Certainly recommend. More
