Centrally located in Plaza de Federico Moyúa square, this elegant hotel stands as an impressive landmark in Bilbao. It offers free access to its gym and spacious rooms with luxurious décor.

The rooms at Hotel Carlton feature a classic or contemporary design and include a private bathroom. They also come with air conditioning and a flat-screen TV. I thought perhaps because the price was good that it might be run down but it was great. The gentlemen at the front desk were extremely helpful too. The room was a nice generous size. Easy walk to the Old Town but also a nice area of its own.

The stunning Hotel Marqués de Riscal, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Elciego, is located in Elciego, in La Rioja’s Álava province. Designed by Frank Gehry, this avant-garde hotel offers free WiFi, a spa and 2 restaurants. The building is a work of art worth visiting and seeing in daylight and especially at night. The overnight stay is a must! We enjoyed the included winery tour with wine tasting and huge breakfast the next day. For dinner we decided to try the Non-Michelin restaurant and its extraordinary tasting menu.
