The hotel was very nice with a modern feel. The room had typical amenities and was very quiet. The location was great for both public transportation and walking to most of the nearby attractions. There is a metro, tram and airport bus stop less than 3 minutes from the hotel.

Ideally situated small hotel on the outskirts of Bilbao and only 15 mins from the port. Very friendly and obliging staff, good breakfast, easy car parking behind secure gates and comfortable and clean rooms. The only negative was outside of the hotel's control - an oil refinery close by which we did not fund noisy but did get a smell of oil from on occasion. We would stay again. We had some basic Spanish phrases, and the owners had some English, so we were able to communicate. Some nice Basque tavernas in the local village also.

There’s a lot to see in Portugalete - plenty of information at the Tourist Office. The nearest beach is just minutes away
The hanging bridge (puente Colgante) is an extraordinary piece of engineering and is the most predominant feature here
There’s a produce market - fruit/veg/flowers and plants three times a week.
There are boat trips too but these only operate at weekends from 15 September
We found a great Mexican restaurant in the old town

The bridge is interesting, but you can't spend a week looking at a bridge!
El Bote tour around the bay and up river to the city center is very good value for money and highlights the contrast between the depressed industrial wastelands and the modern developments in the city.
Many of the attractions in the Tourist office leaflet were permanently closed, ie Getxo Aquarium and the Salazar Tower, so check websites first.
Although there are lots of bars and cafes, we had problems finding restaurants open within elderly walking distance. We had a great lunch in Náutico Berria but when we went again one evening without booking, found that the kitchen is only open in the evenings at the weekend.

It was the festival to celebrate 700 years since the founding of the town, so there was a lot to see and do. Portu is an interesting place down by the river and Puente Colgante. It is easy to get to Bilbao and other places. There are lots of friendly bars and people.

The location of the room was excellent, with views up and down the river.
The staff were very helpful. The bar and restaurant were very good, with a truly excellent Breakfast.
The parking was on site and very accessible.
We had a wonderful stay at the Albergue Bidd-Ona, the whole staff was very welcoming and gave us great advice to visit the areas. The place is very friendly and we got to meet some great people.
The bathrooms and the kitchen are very clean and convenient.
Portugalete is also a nice town, directly connected to Bilbao with the bus and metro.
The apartment is very comfortable and spacious, full of light. Great views. Best location in the old centre of Portugalete, literally 2 min walk to Puente Colgante, Town Hall and Santa Maria church.
It’s fully refurbished, with a modern and practical layout, ideal for a large family.
Welcoming hosts. Spacious, clean and comfortable flat among Portugalete locals. Free parking for our car (potluck for a nearby parking space but we were lucky). A short walk to the metro. A 15 minute walk to the river in Portugalete.
A lovely hotel and bar, lively with mainly locals in the evening. The accommodation was unbelievable and so clean. Be aware it is the opposite side of Onton to where you will be following the Camino trail😁
