The central location and spectacular views of the Guggenheim make The Artist Grand Hotel of Art Billbao an ideal base from which to explore the museum and the sights of Bilbao as part of a longer trip exploring the Basque region. With 145 rooms, a restaurant with panoramic views, bar, gym and wellness centre, it is a comfortable city hotel.
The rooms are contemporary in style, inspired by the Guggenheim, and 54 of these boast views of the museum from the expansive windows. The other rooms have city views, some with a terrace, and a number have Philippe Stark-designed bathtubs and White Company amenities. Crisp, white cotton linens and bright accent colours create a welcoming space to relax after a day exploring Bilbao’s many attractions.
With the many facilities you would expect from a large city hotel, The Artist Grand Hotel of Art has a well-equipped gym and spa with sauna, steam room and personalised treatments. The hotel houses a number of dining options, including the Roof Terrace which is the perfect spot for evening cocktails with impressive views over the Guggenheim and city beyond.
Many of Bilbao’s museums, galleries and historic sites are within walking distance, including the Iberdrola Tower, and the Euskalduna Palace. The Gran Hotel Domine Bilbao is also ideally-located for exploring the shops and boutiques of the city.
