Insider Tip

Bilbao Metropolitan Hostel by Bossh Hotels

Bilbao Metropolitan Hostel is one of the more affordable hostels in the city. It offers a good value for the money walking distance to the city center. The staff here are friendly and helpful and they have the basics, like a shared kitchen where you can cook your own meals. Head to the grocery store next door to pick up supplies and you'll save even more money.

The Facilities

Dorms

This hostel has basic dorm rooms that sleep six, eight, or ten people. The beds have metal frames and decent mattresses. The rooms have limited furnishings, but there are security lockers and plenty of floor space where you can store your belongings. They're kept clean and are a decent value for the price.

Bathrooms

The bathrooms are clean and decent. Like the rest of the hostel, they have a minimalist style, but they are modern and in great condition. The hot water is reliable and the quality is good.

Common Areas

This hostel has a large common area with a television and sofas. Many guests hang out here while they plan their next day's activities. It's a nice space to relax and enjoy a meal that you cook in the shared kitchen.

The shared kitchen is in good condition but has limited supplies. It's stocked enough that you can cook a simple meal, but don't expect anything too elaborate. Again, it's a good value for the money though.
