My wife and I stayed there during the first week of March. It was a unique and memorable experience. For those travelers who don’t want to read my detail review, this is a short review: As a world traveler who has been in 44 countries and has stayed at some of the finest hotels and resorts around the world, I give my highest recommendation to stay at Palacio Arriluce Hotel to any one who is planning to visit Bilbao. Extended review: Property was an old castle which has been brilliantly renovated. You see all the elements of its old charm blended seamlessly and tastefully with modern architectural and interior designs. Location is superb. It is located in an upscale quiet seafront residential community, walking distance to the old port and restaurants and cafes. Legendary service at its finest. Hotel staff deliver a unique and memorable experience at any point you interact with them. There was an issue with our booking for the hotel side. Ainara, the front office manager, reached out to me proactively and offered a generous resolution. If you are planning to Visit Bilbao Palacio Arriluce is a great option as long as you have a rental car. Presidential suit at this hotel is fantastic!
