I will be in Bilbao for 2 nights in December and wanted to see if anyone had particularly good experiences with any hotels/apartments. I'm traveling with my wife and 5-year-old son. We will have a car with us, so available overnight parking is a plus. We also plan to spend most of our time in the area around the Guggenheim, so a place within 5-10 minutes walking distance of that would be preferred. Ideally looking to spend 150 euros or less per night. Thanks for any suggestions!

Not so hard at all.
The Carlton's the grand dame of Bilbao hotels and it's still a bargain. It's in New Town and fits your distance requirement as well.
Good news, it's historical, having been the seat of the Basque government during the civil war.
Bad news, park on the street, but it's fine.

We stayed at Abba Parque. About 15 minute walk to the Guggenheim. It has parking (I don't remember if we paid for it -- we probably did). We were on the 12th floor and could see the Guggenheim and other attractions from our hotel window. I think it meets your price guideline, too.
