beautiful palace built in 1902, nowadays declared one of the city's
historic monuments, hosts the spectacular 4-stars NH Palacio de Oriol
Hotel. Located in a privileged point overlooking the Abra Bay, and
not far from the centre of Bilbao, this elegant hotel has been carefully
renovated preserving some original features such

of Bilbao.

perfect setting for this hotel's peaceful restaurant. With natural
lighting, large windows with stunning views of the area, modern furnishings, an infinite number of cosy corners for guest to enjoy,
and a market-fresh innovated cuisine, prepared based on the
traditional flavours of the best Basque cuisine, guaranties that even
the most exigent gourmet palate will not be dissatisfied. After dinner
or after a busy day, the hotel bar is the perfect place to unwind
with a drink. |
