Top Zabala Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Bilbao by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Really helpful staff, who showed us how to use public transportation in Bilbao. Also, the breakfast is delicious--much better than Holiday Inn in the US. And the free airport shuttle is a great perk."

Bilbao ROOMS & KITCHEN Zabalburu

8/10 Good

"It’s a simple but very clean hotel. The staff was not on site but very accessible on the phone. Friendly. The room is small but has a small fridge. The only issue for us was no blinds on the window. The street lamp was right across our window, and it was pretty bright in our room, especially by the coach directly next to the window. We found a garage five minute walk from the hotel, so we parked the car there. Otherwise, it is street parking."
