Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Holiday Inn Express Bilbao Airport is frequently chosen for its convenient location near the airport, with a free shuttle service running every 15-30 minutes. Many guests appreciate the well-organized and varied self-service breakfast. The rooms are generally considered spacious, and some guests have particularly enjoyed the dimmed/blue lighting in the bathroom; though some have found the beds a bit hard and the rooms slightly outdated. There's also a bar downstairs with good prices on wine, and the hotel is within walking distance of bars and cafes.

The staff at reception were helpful. The hotel looked clean so I can commend the cleaning crew.
The transfer bus situation proved problematic. I was told taxis were unavailable yet later taxis looked. This situation involved renting a van for a short drive at considerable expense so the hotel cannot arrange basic services.

Acceptable Airport Hotel

free shuttlehelpful driverdated roomnoise transparency
The hotel location is near the airport. The shuttle service runs without charge, and the driver was helpful... The location suited my needs.
The room seemed a little outdated. I could hear noise from the corridor through the door. The transparency was not ideal.
