I visited Bilbao in 1998 and at these days the Guggenheim museum was the newest must-see in town. It was in February and Bilbao was all about carnival. We explored the ancient part of the city with its bars, restaurants, hip-locations and beautiful shops. Especially during the night this part of the town turned into a big partying melting pot. Crazy young people everywhere and from every part of the world were dancing in the streets and partying all night long.
To sum it up...this city was burning - uploaded with Basque spirit and really vital. Now I - we all - seem to have a new incitement to visit Bilbao again.
The "Grand Hotel Domine Bilbao" is a highlight for your next trip.
The Hotel is facing its neighbour, the Guggenheim's and is - in a sense of design and architecture - infected by it. Its singularity consists in the application of a concept of integral design, of great, formal coherence, carried out by Javier Mariscal and Fernando Salas.
So for your next trip to the Basque capital add that piece of enchantment, well-being and luxury to the cultural significance of your visit.
