My girlfriend and I wanted somewhere to stay for a mini-break to Bilbao that was clean, well located and completely unobtrusive - the Arriaga suites ticked every box. You are met at the Suites by Oihana or in our case Patricia, and are well directed to everything you need. The rooms are spacious, modern and very comfortable. The beds are... More

In the middle of the old town, you are just steps away from restaurants and shops. Bilbao is a highly walkable city, the Guggenheim is just 15 mins walk along the river bank. And the the beautiful Arriaga Theatre is just steps from the hotel. The hotel is located near the entrance of Bidebarrieta, few doors away from Women's Secret.... More

We chose this due to the high ratings on Tripadvisor. We had a hard time finding this place and getting in because you are supposed to call when you arrive so someone can meet you. We didn't bring our cell phones to Europe and we will lucky the lady at the nearby Arriaga Hotel called for someone to meet us... More

Beautiful building in the old part of Bilbao. The outside original and the inside modern appartments. When we arrived, the fridge was a little dirty, but as soon as we mentioned this it was cleaned.The weather was quite warm which was lucky and unlucky, because the appartment had no airconditioning and it got quite hot during the time we were...

We had the room at the back of the apartments which was a lovely size. It had a front room that we really didn't need or use and then a lovely sized bedroom and nice bathroom. It was very clean. The apartments are in a great location, near the tram stop and on a main street of the old town... More

Convenient location near teatro, only 1 minute walk from arriaga tram stop ( which easily links to Guggenheim and terminus bus station) and less than 5 minte walk to the main train station which is located just across the river. Stayed in the JC Arriaga suite which unlike the other 4 rooms is smaller and does not ontain a fridge,... More

Unless of course you like the uniformity of a hotel room, intrusive staff and uninspired breakfasts too early in the morning..... Arriaga suites offers you the experience of living in a nice apartment in the loveliest part of Bilbao and for a few days you can pretend you are a minimialist with no clutter and mountains of paperwork around you....

We arrived in time for the Semana Grande in August and had booked a suite with the very helpful Oihana.To say it's central would be an understatement, right beside the Arriaga theatre and tourist office and just a stroll to many wonderful pinxtos bars. Oihana met us when we arrived and gave us the keys and a map of Bilbao.... More

We found our stay at Arriaga Suites to be very comfortable. The location is ideal for wandering and being centrally located. In a few steps would could be on a tram or bus, and just a bit farther for the metro. Also the food options in Casco Viejo are fantastic. We rarely saw anyone else around in the hotel during... More

We stayed on at this hotel for one night on tour of Northern Spain. The hotel itself is well placed, a short walk from the Guggenheim, and right in the old town with it’s many restaurants. The room was good although rather small, but modern with an excellent bathroom. It was also very quiet, being away from the street. The... More
