Hotel Miró

Very nice, quiet and convenient accommodations, located just down the street from the Bilbao Guggenheim. Easy access to numerous restaurants (including those offering pintxos) and shopping. Delicious breakfast to start off the day. Front desk and concierge were both very helpful. Highly recommended!

Excellent place to write a book. Break out and saunter the 300 steps to the Guggenheim Bilbao. Be aware that this is Basque country and everything shutters at 11:00 pm at the latest, but you'll be happy staying in if you like. Everyone at the hotel is devoted, professional, and attentive. I love that it's a small building, but almost feels like a resort. There's a reading room next to the lobby with first class art books related to the Guggenheim Bilbao exhibitions, which are all world class. Checkout is at noon, very generous. Very modern amenities, clean postmodern design, great coffeemaker in each room, room numbers are on the floor, not the doors - a lovely touch among many in this perfect hotel. A model for all others, in my view. They got everything right.

We were in room 83, which I believe is on the top floor. It was very clean, nice view, nice bank of windows that could be opened. Good location across from the Guggenheim also nice area for walks around the neighborhood. Bed was comfortable and bathroom was nice.|Breakfast was typical of European hotels--nothing special but nice. We did not experience the traffic or other noise that other reviews have mentioned. Maybe because we were on the top floor. Our room had a couch that was pretty much unusable because there was no light nearby for reading.

I really liked this hotel and loved the location. It worked out perfectly for everything we wanted to do on this trip to Bilbao. From the moment we arrived the staff was attentive and took great care of us from the beginning of our stay until checking out. Breakfast was delicious and the perfect start for each day. You’re just minutes from the Guggenheim museum, shopping, and lots of restaurants. A taxi stop is located on this street and city transportation is minutes away. Definitely recommend this hotel 😊

I'd give them 10 stars if possible. The location is great, easy access to tram and the Guggenheim. The rooms are a little on the small side but well laid out. Only complaint on rooms was that only one side of the bed had an electrical outlet. Not a biggie. But what makes this place special is the staff. They are SIMPLY AWESOME. My wife was hospitalized for a short period during our stay, and the concierge and front desk went above and beyond in helping us talk with the hospital in their native language. The cleaning staff helped my wife with her compression socks. All of these actions cave from their hearts, I can't thank them enough! You won't be sorry staying here.

We loved staying at Hotel Miro during our visit to Bilbao. The room was so comfortable and the service was excellent. We particularly appreciated the free passes to the Guggenheim, and the free welcome drinks at the hotel bar. The location was unbeatable as it was steps away from all the amazing places Bilbao has to offer. Highly recommend Miro for anyone visiting Bilbao.

Nice hotel in a great location. Staff were very helpful and we got a free drink in the self service bar and they even gave us free tickets to the Guggenheim which is just across the road (very close). I think this was luck and wouldn't expect them to have these for every guest. We chose an Urban Executive room and it wasn't made clear on Hotels.com that these are "internal" rooms, which means the window is frosted glass and you cannot see out which makes the room dark. So I would suggest not booking an "Urban" room but other than that a good choice.

We went to Bilbao to visit the Guggenheim and Hotel Miro was the perfect place to stay with its location directly across the street from the museum. It exceeded our expectations in every other way too. A small hotel with a jewel of a lobby with comfy leather chairs and a cozy honor bar where we tasted Basque wines and relaxed after hours at the museum. The room was well laid out and had a big bathroom with excellent Moulton Brown toiletries. I can’t say enough about the delicious, plentiful breakfast and the delightful Josu who greeted us by name each morning. Local breads, jams, cheeses, ham, and cakes; special toasts with avocado or tomatoes; eggs cooked to order; and real newspapers to linger over! My only quibble is that our museum view room, #54, did have a view if we twisted into a corner and leaned awkwardly. But we were happy to do that as the museum is magnificent. I’ll finish by gushing over the staff. Ahead of our arrival, they sent us restaurant suggestions and made us a reservation for our choice, which was excellent. When we had trouble getting bus tickets, they navigated the confusing website for us. Everything was done with warmth and sincerity. Hotel Miro is a real gem.

The Miró was a highlight of our trip to Bilbao. The hotel was beautiful and very well maintained. The rooms were clean and comfy and Hubby Steve and I slept south fly. Best part about the hotel, however is the staff. They were friendly, helpful with all our questions and knowledgeable about the area and best places to eat. Highly recommend staying here if you visit Bilbao.

I stayed at Hotel Miro for two night. I had a great stay. When I got there they upgraded me to a larger room on the 7th floor. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. It came with a great view of the Gehry museum which is why I came to Bilbao in the first place. The location of the hotel is in the heart of the city. Local shops around the museum and hotel are nice but a little geared towards tourism. I recommend going beyond for more local food and shops. Overall, I would recommend this hotel if you are staying in Bilbao.

Three stars for actual accommodations, four stars for location, parking convenience, friendly staff, location/views of the Guggenheim Museum. I enjoyed my stay at this hotel which is across the street from the Guggenheim Museum. My standard double room was small with a comfortable bed. Overall the room's furnishings seem to be a bit on the cheap side, but the hotel's lobby was a little posher. The room itself was fine, but I did find it to be a bit drafty after my shower due to the fact the bathroom (there is a separate water closet for the toilet) has curtains instead of walls. Hotel staff were welcoming and very helpful and even upgraded my room to one with a view of the museum, which was very nice. Old Town is an enjoyable 15-20 minute walk from the hotel. If you do stay here be sure to stop into the seafood restaurant next door (Marisquería Mazarredo); I didn't try the food, but the older gentleman behind the bar makes a fantastic gin and tonic and watching him make it is art. If you are looking for parking there is a public parking lot across the street from the hotel with reasonable overnight rates.

This is the place to stay in Bilbao, especially if you're only there for the Guggenheim and the old town (like just about everybody else). Very good service, and very reasonably priced for such a convenient location, literally a block away from Guggenheim - so if that is the only reason you're visiting Bilbao, you might as well stay close by, since there is no above-ground parking lot at the museum. (There is an underground garage nearby.) Old town is a 20-minute leisurely walk away, along the river bank -- very pleasant stroll. Highly recommended.

This hotel could not be in a better location if you're visiting the Guggenheim and the central area. It is, however, a bit of a hike if the old town is your preference. The lobby sitting area is very welcoming, even if the staff is not particularly so. It includes a bar area that has juices, water, coffee, tea and snacks available for guests at all times, with a comfortable reading area. There are no valets or bellmen to assist with luggage. This is purely a very nice "tourist class" hotel. The main thing to know about is the rooms. They are very nicely and modernly decorated. BUT, just remember, if you get a room facing the front of the hotel, you'll have a very nice view of the museum and will likely be happy, and if get one in the back, you'll be facing into a building and you'll most certainly be unhappy.

This hotel has basic accomodations. My room was small and the furnishing was functional though nothing fancy. Everything was clean. I liked their self serve breakfast and snacks in the lobby bar area. The hotel is across the street and just a few paces from the Guggenheim. Very convenient. I'd stay here again.

This hotel is the perfect location for art lovers coming to Bilbao as it is between the Guggenheim and the Fine Arts Museum. The prices were very reasonable and you can even get a 20% if you book 60 days prior to arrival. The room was very modern with a low bed, marble shower and a leather couch/window seat that had a great view of the Guggenheim. The room service tapas menu was reasonable and actually pretty good. The breakfast buffet was very overpriced (15 euros for continental breakfast.) They do have a hospitality lounge with one of those fancy coffee makers and a fridge full of drinks. There are a few people on staff that speak English but not everyone does so brush up on some simple phrases and you will be okay. I'd definitely recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Bilbao.

Great hotel. The bed is so comfortable and the hotel is very conveniently located. The staff is also exceptional, I would be happy to stay here again.

the location is terrific. however the rooms are very small, the breakfast lacking, the rates high and most importantly the staff was rude.
