Best option of stay near the airport

Free shuttle to airport from 5am to 11pm. Good breakfast starting at 5am - even they call it an express breakfast between 5am and 6am, it’s impressively good. We stay at two hotels near the airport and Holiday Inn is better in multiple ways (service, breakfast, price, frequency of shuttle).
Express breakfast included from 5am to 6am

This is a great place to stay if you have a late flight into Bilbao. They offer a free shuttle to and from the airport and took our bags in bag check all day while we explored the city. There is also lots of parking if you have a car or rented a car. It's not in a location that is near anything though, so don't expect that and it would have been good to have a pool and a workout room. We could tell there wasn't a pool from the listing but I was just hoping for a workout room since it's a Holiday Inn. The breakfast in the morning was also good. The room we had which had two single beds (ushed together) and a couch bed was pretty crammed to fit all the people with our bags/luggage, which would have been really difficult if we had stayed here a long time. But all in all this was a fine stop for our trip.

Stayed before our flight out. It’s in a suburban area right near the Bilbao airport. Shuttle was very convenient, breakfast was free and offered plentiful variety. Staff was very friendly. Maybe a $35 euro cab ride into the city if that is in your plans. Would stay again.
