Bilbao Hotels

Poking fun at the ostentatious, mocking of the mundane, this is a hotel whose only design constraint was the need to hold the roof up. Like Picasso with a paintbrush, the form and concept of this wonder blossoms from room to room sprouting styles - traditional here, modern there - to form a cohesive and extraordinary whole. Wake up from your dreams to find yourself in another one.

Not so much a hotel as an artistic installation, this building is an integral part of the artistic dynamism of Bilbao and as such is a place to come, sip a coffee and appreciate the heritage it offers to the city. And if you're lucky enough to be a guest, there's no need to even venue out to enjoy the wonder of Bilbao - in this magnificent structure you're surrounded by it.

Restaurant

• Beltz the Black: A fair for the sensual is what's behind the restaurant Beltz the Black's minimalist décor and this is reflected in the food, where character is the prime ingredient. Eating in the Basque country is a serious affair, something reflected in the design of the kitchen with solid pillars and bold design. As for the food, simply truth yourself to the gastronomic whim of Ramón Berriozabal, a national prize-winner chef of boundless talent.
• Buenas Vistas Terrace: Our breakfast room, located on the top floor and with spectacular views over the Guggenheim Museum and the surrounding mountains, offers you the opportunity of enjoying the best service in a priviledged location. During the summer season, you will also have the possibility of tasting our cuisine in this unique site.

Bar

• Splash & Crash : Have a taste of the cool and funky in the bar Splash & Crash where the sixties is the inspiration.
• Metropol: The cafeteria Metropol is a Bauhaus wonder offering the magic of the 20's and fine coffee to boot.
