    I was very dissapointed with the quality of the hotel, and the rooms. This hotel smelled terrible - like body odor and stale cigarettes - and the bed linens were very thin and of very poor quality. There was also construction immediately adjacent to the hotel and right outside my window. A jackhammer ran from 8am til 8pm every day. It was impossible to relax in the hotel becuase of the enormous, offensive noise and vibration of the equipment. I was not informed of this before I arrived. I will never stay at this hotel again, and I would recommend that others don't.

Location. The contemporary Silken Gran Hotel Domine is located in central Bilbao, Spain, opposite the Guggenheim Museum. The Museum of Fine Arts, Old Town, Santiago Cathedral and Plaza Nueva square are within one kilometre. Bilbao Airport (BIO) is 10 kilometres away.

Hotel Features. The Silken Gran Hotel Domine is a modern design hotel reflecting the Guggenheim Museum in its mirror-like facade. Public spaces, guestrooms, original artworks and even staff uniforms were designed, or chosen, by artist Javier Mariscal. The glass-topped atrium houses Mariscal's 'Cypress Fossil' sculpture, a 26-metre-high tower of mesh-encased stones.

Buffet breakfast is served on the glass-roofed Buenavistas Terrace with outdoor seats and Guggenheim views from the hotel's top floor. Minimalist décor, and international and Basque dishes are on the menu at Beltz the Black restaurant. The black and white Bauhuas-inspired Café Metropol has marble floors, stainless steel and glass walls overlooking the Guggenheim's huge floral-coated 'Puppy' sculpture. Mariscal Pop Art, red-cushioned stools, and white plastic chairs give a 1960s feel to Splash and Crash cocktail lounge. Its silver floor and bar were inspired by the Guggenheim's titanium exterior.

The business centre has a computer with high-speed Internet access (surcharge).

With a wall of curved beech and an open fireplace, the hotel's reading room is stocked with architecture and design publications.

Guestrooms. The Silken Gran Hotel Domine's 145 air-conditioned guestrooms have designer furnishings. All offer minibars, satellite television, safes and wireless Internet access (surcharge). Most rooms have Guggenheim or atrium sculpture views.

Expert Tip. The hotel's designer Javier Mariscal was also responsible for the logo of Barcelona's 1992 Summer Olympics.
