Contemporary, Artistic, Inclusive
Axel Hotel Bilbao
Industrial aesthetics and views of the Nervión, surrounded by urban art and culture.
Located next to the estuary and a few steps from the Old Town, Axel Hotel Bilbao redefines diverse hospitality in a city that combines art, tradition and modernity. Since its opening, this space has established itself as a meeting point for those seeking to experience Bilbao from an open and cosmopolitan perspective. Its aesthetics reflect the industrial and artistic identity of the city, integrating contemporary design, noble materials and a warm atmosphere that invites relaxation without renouncing its urban character.
The hotel has 108 rooms distributed in a building with modern lines, where natural light and comfort are the protagonists. On its rooftop, the Sky Bar has become one of the most photographed places in the city: outdoor pool, creative cocktails and panoramic views over the estuary and the Casco Viejo. The spa and wellness area complete the experience with sauna, hammam and jacuzzi, while the gym offers a functional space for daily wellness. The entire complex is designed for an adult public that values authenticity, design and the freedom to be oneself.
Beyond its services, Axel Hotel Bilbao represents a natural way of understanding inclusion. Its team fosters an environment where diversity is not celebrated as the exception, but as the norm, consolidating Bilbao as one of the most open and creative capitals in northern Spain. Its strategic location, between the art of the Guggenheim and the popular life of the Mercado de la Ribera, makes it an ideal gateway to explore a vibrant, gastronomic and constantly evolving city.
