About the Venue
The retreat will be hosted at the Hotel Puente Colgante, a distinctive and historic hotel located on the banks of the Nervión River in Portugalete.
Set in a calm waterfront environment, the hotel combines heritage architecture with modern comfort, creating an ideal setting for focused conversation, reflection, and connection. Its location offers the rare balance of a quiet retreat atmosphere while remaining closely connected to the vibrant city of Bilbao, just a short metro ride away.
From the venue, participants can easily access the surrounding coastline, local promenades, and beaches, making it simple to step outside and reset between sessions. The area is also known for its outstanding Basque gastronomy, with opportunities to enjoy both shared group meals and informal local dining experiences.
The venue has been chosen specifically to support the rhythm of the retreat, deep morning sessions, relaxed communal lunches, and open afternoons that allow space for thinking, walking, and meaningful conversations.
