Hotel Sukha

We were travelling and we needed a hotel for the night. This came up on booking, was a small detour and 4 stars, so we decided to try. The hotel is too good for its puny 4 stars. I’ve been to 5 stars from Luxembourg to Seoul. Not a lot of those measure up to this. The theme is on the name: space of serenity. The whole décor is relaxing, on suave tones and natural materials. The bedrooms have amazing mattresses, memory foam pillows, lots of space, including the big bathrooms, and the toiletries are high end. The staff is par to the course: super-nice, calm and attentive. The restaurant is good, and so is the plush buffet breakfast. But the cherry on top is the WATER! In a mountain region where you could literally drink from the creek, they have this special filter machine that pours out the best water you ever drank. And as we were leaving, they filled our travel bottles with it, for good measure. I will come back for the water alone. I do not agree to any of the negative critics I read here. Some people just cannot be pleased, for whatever reason. This is very quiet, a great rest and beautiful views.

We stayed at the Hotel Sukha for the Europa League Final, the hotel staff were superb, excellent customer service (Indurre, Jourre, Dani, Onintza & Maitetxci). Our taxt driver let us down last minute but the hotel staff all called around and ensure we had a lift to and from Bilbao. We also enjoyed breakfast and an evening meal all the a very high quality. We were a group of 6 and would all recommend this hotel and area of Spain.
