Hotel Petit Palace Arana Bilbao – Review
The Petit Palace Arana Bilbao is a mid-sized hotel located at a beautiful building of traditional architecture. The hotel has been fully renovated and it offers modern rooms right next to the Arriaga Theatre and the Old District of Bilbao.
modern hotel is located within an impressive XIX century building, just 200 meters from the Santiago Cathedral in Bilbao.
Rooms
The rooms at the Arana Bilbao are elegantly designed with modern furniture and a dark color palette. Rooms are of average size. They all feature air conditioning, minibar, and a flat-screen TV.
Some rooms also feature balconies. The bathrooms are private and have hydro-massage showers. WIFI is free in all areas.
The rooms are well insulated but you could expect traffic rooms if windows stay open since the hotel stands in an area in Bilbao with moderate traffic.

Overal Review
The Petit Palace Arana offers good value for money at an exceptional location in Bilbao. The hotel is a good choice for you if you enjoy rather small hotels at the heart of the action. The hotel building is charming, though most of this charm is lost in the rooms, which enjoy a neutral modern decoration. in case you prefer large hotels with many services, the Petit Palace may not be the best option for you. Remember that despite the “palace” in the name, this is a three-star hotel, so you should not expect luxury. We believe it is a very good option if you want to stay on budget. if you are looking for more charm and more upscale features, we recommend you have a look at the nearby Tayko hotel Bilbao.
