This is a great place to stay if you have a late flight into Bilbao. They offer a free shuttle to and from the airport and took our bags in bag check all day while we explored the city. There is also lots of parking if you have a car or rented a car. It's not in a location that is near anything though, so don't expect that and it would have been good to have a pool and a workout room. We could tell there wasn't a pool from the listing but I was just hoping for a workout room since it's a Holiday Inn. The breakfast in the morning was also good. The room we had which had two single beds (ushed together) and a couch bed was pretty crammed to fit all the people with our bags/luggage, which would have been really difficult if we had stayed here a long time. But all in all this was a fine stop for our trip.

Simple and affordable, if you are looking for something really close to airport. THere is also a nice walking path in back of the hotel that leads you past a farm and into a converted rail trail.

Holiday Inn Bilbao airport

Stayed before our flight out. It’s in a suburban area right near the Bilbao airport. Shuttle was very convenient, breakfast was free and offered plentiful variety. Staff was very friendly. Maybe a $35 euro cab ride into the city if that is in your plans. Would stay again.

I was really disappointed because I thought this would be more of an American style hotel. What is more American than Holiday Inn? Also I thought the hotel was pretty new but the first room they assigned us had the AC control pulled out of the wall. The second room had problems with the shower and also mold in the shower. The food options in the restaurant are also very limited. There seems so be just one other restaurant nearby and they told me to look on Google maps to find it. Really? What happened to providing menus for places that will deliver food or are nearby? You know...that stack of menus you usually see in American hotels? With that said, the staff was nice and the hotel shuttle was great so it served our purpose well. Just know there is not anything to do around the hotel. You would have to take a cab or transit to see anything in Bilbao from this hotel.
