The Begona is a traveler's delight. Centrally located close to mass transit, restaurants, bars, culture and the sheer beauty of Bilbao. We spent three nights in this clean, cozy pension where the staff were spot on with recommendations and service. The other guests all had a friendly vibe and it felt more like hanging out with friends than staying in... More

The staff were lovely, kind and helpful. Possibly the best staff I have had in Spain. Great location. Super clean rooms. I felt the price was totally reasonable for what we got. Even m ore than reasonable actually. Our only regret was not staying longer.

Spend a weekend in Hostal Begoña with some friends and we only have good things to convey. Friendly staff, nice location, clean rooms, etc. They even let us checkout one hour later than usual out of pure kindness. If only, prices could be a bit more adjusted but the experience was worth it.

Hostal Begona is in a great spot - walking distance to lots of interesting places. The rooms themselves are pretty basic, our bathroom was fine - clean and spacious but the rest was tiny. Barely room for two people. We had a balcony but it faced out the back and wasnt usable - no room for a chair let alone... More

Hostal Begona is surprisingly well placed, close to the Old Town, the grand via and El Goog. It is in a quiet side street off the grand via and opposite is the excellent Restaurant Lar (for a cheap but fantastic breakfast). The rooms are fairly basic with a bedroom and bathroom, on the first floor is a shared lounge with... More

A sympatique, cozy, friendly informal small hostel for a good price and well placed (near the Guggenheim, along the water and near the old city). The rooms are very sober but good enough. There is a small sittingroom wich gives you a bit "home sweet home" feeling with the books, paintings,sofa´s and soft chairs. You can´t have breakfast and diner... More
