In Chamberí, a couple of minutes from Bilbao Metro station, the Hotel One Shot Luchana is a modern 4-star hotel with parquet-floored rooms, many with a balcony. It is a good fit if you prefer to sleep in a residential neighbourhood with its own life and head into the centre by Metro or on foot.
Location and getting around
It is at Calle de Luchana 22, in the Chamberí district. Bilbao station (lines 1 and 4) is about a 5-minute walk away, so you have a direct Metro to Sol and Gran Vía.
If you feel like walking, you reach Callao and Plaza de España in about 20 minutes, and Puerta del Sol in about 25. For Atocha station (2.8 km) or the Santiago Bernabéu stadium (2.7 km), the Metro or a taxi is best.
Rooms and facilities
Rooms have simple, modern decor. They offer:
- air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, a desk and a safe;
- a private bathroom with a shower, a hairdryer and toiletries;
- free wifi.
Breakfast is served à la carte. Guests rate it 9.2 out of 10 on Booking.com.
Who it suits
- Couples looking for a quiet neighbourhood to come back to at night.
- Guests who prefer to stay away from the bustle of Sol but a walk from it.
- Business travellers who need a desk in the room.
- Travellers who get around by Metro: Bilbao station is almost at the door.
Good to know
