Located in the heart of Bilbao Historic Centre, 100 metres from Santiago de Bilbao Cathedral, Quartier Bilbao Hostel offers rooms with free WiFi.

Everything!:D From the ambiance and super friendly staff, who makes you feel at home at the very first moment (thanks Jose!:)) to the great location in the middle of the old town!:)) If I had to stay in Bilbao again, I'd definitely come back to this hostel! It's not too big, just the perfect size and you feel really welcome from the very first step! Positive vibes all around, good coffee in the morning, decent conditions - clean and neat, still very cosy! Couldn't wish for more!:)

Very relaxed. Fantastic that it has an eatery attached. Rachel at checkout was amazing: so friendly and accommodating with a great sense of humor. The next day, the gentlemen working at the desk was so sweet: he asked if I was cold and offered me a sweatshirt.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    Female dorm was ok, windows were broken and could not open so air was not good during night. Mostly pilgrims, bunk beds were rocking even when it would be so easy to bolt them on a wall.. great location!

    The hotel is on the edge of the old town so a great location. The rooms were quite small but we knew that when we booked and more than adequate for a short stay. The bathroom was nice and very clean, the whole place is very clean. They also kept our luggage safe as we arrived prior to check in. Despite it's location there was no noise to disturb us at night

    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.
