Looking for the North

… Undoubtedly, we are in Bilbao. If you need to make a choice, do not hesitate, there is nothing better for the summer than this city full of life and with thousands of plans every minute: museums, cuisine, one of the most modern music festivals on the national scene, the most spectacular natural routes, its river and, of course, its people. Bilbao has been one of the Spanish cities that most suffered a big transformation in the last years, in terms of tourist destination, changing into one of the most quoted. July is the month with more popular festivals, therefore – if you can pick those dates – it is the best moment to visit the city. Do you fear the climate? Do not be afraid, the temperatures are usually mild, reaching 20 degrees on average (or more), it does not rain much as they say and, indeed, you may like the cool sunrises.

Hotel Catalonia Atenas in Barcelona

Accommodations are not very cheap, but they are not as expensive as those in San Sebastián or Santander. There are historic hotels in Bilbao that offer an excellent value for money, but you need to book in advance because their rooms are much requested: they are near the historic centre that is the most interesting area, if you like to enjoy the nightlife of the city. If you prefer holidays more oriented to beach or nature, we recommend you to leave the centre of Bilbao only for your visits and to look for a hotel close to the Ereaga beach or in any other area of Getxo: there are best rates and very good connections to organise excursions and routes around the city.
