Featuring free WiFi throughout the property, Poshtel Bilbao - Premium Hostel is located in Bilbao, 984 feet from Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. This Premium Hostel features a sauna.

Stylish, easy self check-in, spotless sleeping quarters, enjoyed using the common areas and kitchen. Staff are kind, helpful and professional. The cafe/bar attached next door was a great place for my morning coffees. Also Poshtel has effective signage and display cabinets offering extras for sale / rent - if guests have forgotten their own locks, towels etc. Having full length mirrors in the (female only) dorm I stayed in was a welcome touch.

Everything was as expected - fine for a night. The staff member who showed me around was very kind! I had to leave early so I can't rate the breakfast.

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Small room. Good option for overnight sleep, if you don't plan to spend much time at room or hostel. One of the cheapest options in Bilbao. Location is quite good, close the bus station and touristic parts of city are easily reachable even by foot. Bathroom was clean (but also small).

    I spent one week in Ibis Budget Bilbao City where the staff is friendly and helpful. The hotel has a great location being 5 min away from the Intermodal bus station, 20 min walk to Guggenheim Museum and close to an aldi. The breakfast was delicious at a reasonable price of 8€. The room was big and had a very comfortable bed. Totally recommend, had a wonderful stay in Bilbao.

    Very cheap, so perfect if you just need a simple hostel, basically just a bed to sleep in, a little kitchen and common room. You're definitely not paying for extra facilities. Lots of backpackers doing el camino, all ages, but not really a social hostel. Quiet and most people are in bed early which is nice.
