  • 5/5 Nettie A. 11 months ago on Google
    Wow! Excellent. Beautiful hotel with spacious rooms. Our room had a double shower. The spa downstairs is €15 for 50 minutes of steam, sauna and a large hot tub. Air conditioned. They have a pool upstairs as well. It is small but a nice place do sit upstairs. The staff is excellent and they even brought us a welcome gift. Comfortable beds. Excellent place and the price is right. We got an Airbnb and it was so stinky and gross, we left it and booked here last minute. The price was great.

    As I arrived at the conference room of this particular hotel, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement in the air. Maybe it was the buzz of anticipation, or maybe it was just the lingering aroma of fresh coffee, but something told me that this was going to be a good day. Upon entering the room, I was immediately struck by the sleek and modern decor. It was clear that the hotel had put a lot of thought and effort into creating a space that was both functional and stylish. But what really impressed me was the staff. From the moment I walked in, they were top-notch, offering a warm greeting and a genuine willingness to help in any way they could. And let me tell you, in the hospitality industry, that kind of attitude is worth its weight in gold. Over the course of the day, I had the opportunity to observe the staff in action, and they never once faltered. They were always quick to respond, amenable to any requests, and eager to ensure that everything was running smoothly. But perhaps what I appreciated most was their attention to detail. They always set up the rooms exactly as requested, with every detail accounted for. And as someone who has spent a fair amount of time in conference rooms, I can tell you that that level of precision is not always easy to come by. All in all, I have to say that I was thoroughly impressed with this hotel and its conference room facilities. And as someone who has used their services for two years now, I can attest that their commitment to excellence has not waned in the slightest. If you're looking for a top-notch conference experience, look no further than this hotel.

    Lovely hotel in a nice big street. Especially the selection at breakfast was great, nothing more to wish for, lovely terrace in the courtyard. Breakfast team was very friendly

    Wow such an amazing stay we had at this hotel. 5 star from beginning to end. The kind staff, we stayed in the most amazing room. All the little details. The bed is humongous, had the best sleep of my life in a long long time. And as parents of a 1 year old, that’s such a gift. The room service was great. And the balcony was gorgeous. We are Catalonia fans forever now. Thank you for everything!

    Easy to get to from the airport, 3 busstops from the airport. Lovely hotel, friendly staff, nice rooms, pool and sunbeds on the rooftop. Breakfast was 👌

  • 3/5 Ferial A. 7 months ago on Google
    Great location. Service was good. And price for value was not so good. How are you charging hotel guests extra for a spa that you’re advertising so immensely. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Well located on the gran via. Hôtel is nice rooms are good. The pool is quite small so dont expect to go for à swimm, it s good for young kids and refreshing yourself but that's it. Personal was very friendly and helpful. Front desk people have been extremely friendly during our whole stay. It was a great experience for us!

  • 5/5 Hugo Paul V. 8 months ago on Google
    Very nice! The pool on the roof is cute but very small, maybe half a meter deep, and there are only a handful of sunbeds. The rooms are fabulous and modern. I didn't book breakfast because it is very expensive.

    The Catalonia is amazing! The entire staff was incredible and very pleasant, lovely and helpful! The service is outstanding and Maria was exceptionally helpful with managing my lost luggage at the airport, train accommodations and restaurant suggestions. We will definite back!

    Great location, kind attentive staff, beautiful room, totally marvelous stay! Our special gratitude to Maria at front desk, her help and support are greatly appreciated!

    Twice in a week, the room wasn't cleaned after over 4-5 hours with notification to clean at the door. Cleanness could indeed improve, particularly when Covid-19 is still a reality. Towels minimal, and some mould in the bathroom. With better care, it would be a great hotel. What a pity.

    Lovely. The small balconies are wonderful for morning coffee. Staff are friendly and helpful. Parking was a bit tight with a larger SUV but manageable. Location is wonderful. As a rule I don't give 5 stars but they deserve all 5. Wonderful stay.

    We stayed at Catalonia Hotel Gran Via for 2 nights and loved it. Very nice hotel, friendly staff, perfect location and the parking garage was a big plus. We had a Premium double room facing the back of the hotel. Spacious and luxury room with a great shower. The hotel offered us a bottle of water every day. The breakfast was also very good. We would stay here again if we return to Bilbao!

    Beautiful, modern rooms, and the best bathrooms I’ve ever had in a hotel! Seriously: great water pressure, deep soaking tub, heated towel rack, and all very clean and new-feeling. I should also mention the decent location, convenient parking below the hotel, gym, and the free drinks for Catalonia members as other highlights to my stay. I just wish the spa portion was open a bit later as I had hoped to experience it but didn’t have time in my schedule.

    Excellent hotel. Our balcony room was spacious, comfortable and quiet. The only off note was the huge TV in the bar showing football which felt out of keeping with the hotel.

  • 2/5 Igor S. 1 year ago on Google
    Catalonia Gran Vía is a new and beautiful hotel in very nice part of Bilbao with attached parking garage. Rooms are luxurious and well stocked. What made my stay 2 star is completely inadequate A/C. Despite air conditioner running all night, the temperature in the room was essentially the same as the temperature outside and in the morning room started to heat so fast, I had to flee.
