Where to sleep: Your Ho(s)tel in Bilbao

If you are looking for a place with personality, a young spirit, and right in the heart of the city, stay with us. We offer you the comfort of a hotel and the atmosphere of a hostel.

Latroupe La Granja is probably the top hostel in Bilbao. We are located in a historic building across from Plaza Circular. We are the ideal place to warm up before the concerts and rest after the shows. But beyond that, we are in the best spot to get to know Bilbao. You will be just a step away from the best pintxo areas to recharge your batteries.

How to get to Bilbao Arena (Miribilla) from Latroupe La Granja

By Commuter Train (The fastest option)

It is the most direct way and leaves you practically at the door of the venue.

• Line: C3 (Direction Orduña).
• Trip: Just 1 stop. You must get off at Miribilla station.
• Total time: Less than 10 minutes.

• Destination: "Gernika 10" stop, which is just a few meters from the arena.
• Total time: About 12-15 minutes depending on traffic.

On foot (For those who want to warm up)

If the weather is nice and you feel like a walk before the concert:

• Route: Cross the Arenal Bridge towards the Old Town (Casco Viejo) and go up through the San Adrián/Miribilla area.
• Total time: About 20-25 minutes. Keep in mind that the Bilbao Arena is in an elevated area, so the path has a bit of an incline.

There is usually a taxi rank right at the door of Latroupe La Granja.

• Approximate cost: Between €7 and €10.
• Total time: 5-7 minutes.
• Trouper Advice: For the return trip, the commuter train is usually the best option to avoid the traffic jams that form at the end of the event. Make sure you have your Barik card charged or buy your round-trip ticket before leaving!
