We only stayed for one night, but that's a nice, cosy hotel. Our room was ample, bright, clean, a good surprise for what we paid. We really had a good night's rest. I don't have anything serious to complain about except for two things. Firstly, the overpriced car park, 16€ per day, but that's common everywhere in Spain. Secondly, the... More

We lodged with Amara Plaza during our trip in December. It was moderately priced hotel, spacious wih comfortable bed and nicely decorated rooms. The hotel staff spoke fluent English and we found them very helpful with recommended tips on place to dine. The hotel is conveniently located to the bus terminal (for those transiting via bus into San Sebastian), however,... More

I stayed at Amara Plaza this october. To my surprise, very moderately priced property offers strong 4 star service. Rooms are of good size, beds are nice to sleep in. Despite bus station located adjacent to the building, I had no trouble sleeping there. Actually getting there from Bilbao airport is a breeze since the bus comes directly to the... More

We stayed at the Silken Amara due to our cancelling a booking at another hotel due to building works. The reception area is light and airy and our booking-in was painless and efficient. The room was spacious and the beds comfortable. The bathroom was well appointed and a good selection of toiletries were available. Our only complaint was that the... More

Good hotel, only 10 minutes away from city center. Lacks some glamour, but staff is freindly and rooms are very clean and comforteable. We stayed for a weekend and certainly everything was fine. They even allowed us for late check-out, as we were coming back from a running event. Good breakfast as well, I would only miss a fitness hall. More

I stayed for three nights at this hotel. First the location is perfect, just next to the bus station. Staff were extremely helpful. Room is well decorated, clean with a very comfortable bed. Bathroom design is sleek and beautiful, and the toiletries available are comprehensive (almost everything you would need - see picture). This is a beautifully decorated hotel with... More

It cost £76 a night via Expedia for two of us to stay on a Monday and Tuesday. This included breakfast. This was good value. The breakfast was epic (there was even one of those Nespresso machines which George Clooney advertises) and if you're prepared to stuff yourself, you won't need to eat all day. Location is a 20 minute... More

Looks like a block of offices from the outside but once inside everything was very good. Attentive bell boys to take the luggage and an underground car park with lift straight to the hotel. Bar staff very accomodating and tried very hard to find the world cup rugby on the big TV in the bar. Next to the bus station... More

We stayed 5 nights at the Amara and thought it was an excellent choice. It is the the north of the city, easy to find when driving off the motorway, and only a 15 minute walk to the centre of the town and all its delights. It is next to the coach station, which is a bit bizarre, and I... More
