Hotel Tayko Bilbao
Bilbao
From $195/ night
A minimalist boutique hotel in a beautifully preserved 1924 building in the center.
Bilbao transformed itself from an industrial port into a capital of architecture and art, led by Frank Gehry's titanium-clad Guggenheim Museum on the Nervión river. Around it, the Casco Viejo, the old town of seven streets, is full of pintxos bars, and the Basque coast and countryside are a short trip away.
Where to stay
The area around the Guggenheim and Abandoibarra is modern and close to the museums. The Casco Viejo has more character and the best bars, while Indautxu and Gran Vía are the city's elegant shopping streets.
Good to know
Bilbao's metro, designed by Norman Foster, makes the city easy to get around. San Sebastián is about an hour away by bus.
