Apartamento Artekale is located in Bilbao, Spain. Rated 9.0 out of 10 based on 11 guest reviews.
Apartamento Artekale is a family-friendly apartment base in Bilbao, Spain, set on Artekale Kalea 13, 1oA for an easy start to days in the city. With a guest rating of 9/10 from 11 reviews, it’s the kind of place travelers tend to recommend when they want practical comfort rather than a hotel routine. The check-in window runs from 2:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and private check-in/check-out plus express services help keep arrival and departure smooth.
Inside, the shared lounge/TV area gives everyone a place to regroup after sightseeing, while the shared kitchen is useful for families who prefer simple breakfasts or packed lunches. The property is non-smoking throughout, which many guests appreciate for keeping the apartment fresh, and non-smoking rooms suit travelers who are sensitive to odors. Staff follow local safety protocols, and the lift makes day-to-day movement easier for guests with children or luggage.
Location matters here: you’re within about 0.8 km of Arriaga Theatre and the Old Town atmosphere, and roughly 2 km from the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. That combination works well for people who want cultural highlights without long commutes, plus the flexibility of returning home between outings.
Best for families and small groups who like to walk, cook occasionally, and value a calm, non-smoking setting with responsive check-in. Recent reviewers mention the overall ease of the stay and the apartment’s suitability for everyday needs, especially when traveling with children.
Worth booking if you want a highly recommended, practical base in central Bilbao with a family-friendly setup. The 9/10 guest rating from 11 reviews suggests guests are generally satisfied with the stay.
You arrive to Artekale Kalea 13, 1oA and can settle in with private check-in/check-out and express options that make the process feel efficient. The neighborhood feel is very central, with Casco Viejo close by, so it’s easy to step out and start exploring right away. Over the stay, you can plan day trips on foot to major sights like Arriaga Theatre and the Guggenheim Museum, and you can also use the shared kitchen for simple, flexible routines. With a 9/10 rating from 11 reviews, the overall impression is that guests tend to recommend it as a practical, comfortable base rather than a flashy hotel experience.
The location is a strong advantage: Casco Viejo is about 0.2 km away, Arriaga Theatre is about 0.8 km, and the Guggenheim Museum is about 2 km, making many key stops feasible on foot. Bilbao Exhibition Center is farther out at about 6 km, so plan on local transport for that day. Bilbao Airport is about 12 km away, which should be a straightforward transfer for arrival and departure.
