Located in the Plaza Moyúa Carlton Hotel is the first deluxe hotel which was in Bilbao. Designed by the architect Manuel Maria Smith, was designed in 1919 and completed in 1926. For its design was based on the guidelines of the Second Empire style, with classical forms and traditional plants, but with direct inspirations of famous hotels of the era: the porch and the front access of Carlton of London, and the windows of the lobby Hotel Negresco in Nice. We also noticed the magnificent oval skylight of the lobby, second in Spain by size, after the Hotel Palace in Madrid.
