"Gran Hotel Domine Bilbao, or GHDB as it is known to the locals, is just across from Bilbao's Guggenheim Museum, and it's not surprising that some of the excitement and energy from Frank Gehry's design seems to have spilled over into this hotel. The hotel describes itself as "not just a hotel to stay at, but a colourist microcosmos." It may sound a bit hyperbolic, and we admit it may have lost something in the translation from the Spanish, but nevertheless, it does convey a fairly accurate sense of the bold, almost whimsical nature of the design, courtesy of Javier Mariscal and Fernando Salas." - Tablet Hotels
