The four-star Catalonia Gran Vía Bilbao hotel, opened in 2021, is located right in the centre of Bilbao, opposite Doña Casilda Park and very close to the Guggenheim Museum and the Euskalduna Conference Centre. It is located on Gran Vía Don Diego López de Haro, an elegant and stately avenue with the best shops in the city and a wide range of bars and restaurants.
An ideal hotel for both couples and business travellers. It has 106 comfortable rooms, free wifi throughout the hotel, its own car park, swimming pool and terrace, urban garden and wellness and spa area. It also has meeting rooms.
Gastrobar, a young and elegant place to relax with a drink and a few pintxos or to work over a coffee. Open to all those who want to enjoy a good selection of wines and an informal gastronomic proposal: pinchos, salads, tapas and a selection of traditional cuisine suggestions for dinners. We also have the classics such as club sandwiches, beef burgers, pizzas and not so classics such as vegan burgers.

Excellent hotel and staff
Loved our stay at the Catalonia Gran Via Bilbao. The room was lovely and very spacious, we were lucky to get an upgrade due to having bikes with us. All the staff were very helpful and courteous. Breakfast was amazing. The hotel is very conveniently located for the city centre and all the attractions. Great, secure underground car park at extra cost.

WILLIAMS WILLIAMS27-09-22
Great staff, nice room, nice food and excellent location
On our arrival we were greeted by Luis who was very helpful and chatty and made us feel very welcome. The room was also very clean and comfortable. Great nights sleep every night. Easy walking distance to centre of Bilbao and the old town, however, if you don't want to walk to far then the tram was a 5 minute walk which takes you straight into the centre. The bathroom/shower facilities were excellent. Breakfast was also very well stocked with a large selection of anything you would like to set you up for the day. If I had to pick one thing that could be improved, that would be some additional english speaking channels other than the news, but this did not deter from our enjoyment of the hotel.

Great hotel, the rooms are beautiful. We stayed there twice in August. They tried the best to fulfill our wishes. The Director is very nice.
MARIE BACK12-09-22
Catalonia Gran Via Bilbao
Outstanding hotel - largely because of the staff. Very relaxed feel.Excellent breakfast..I particular appreciated being able to have cava for breakfast on the morning of my birthday!! My only SLIGHT criticism.The rooftop pool is SO small! I used it on the first day,but thereafter,with bigger parties staying in the hotel,I couldn’t use it..way too crowded.With 2 or 3 people in the pool,and several sitting round the edge,it wasn’t comfortable.However that is my only criticism.The staff,the location,value..all brilliant. Thank You

Too brief of a stay
A very comfortable stay, although too brief. The front desk staff were courteous and efficient and looked after all our needs.
JOHN STEINMETZ05-09-22
Excellent stay
Hotel is very clean, staff are very friendly. Shower in the room is 10/10 possibly the best hotel show I’ve ever had
GRAHAM FRANCIS REILLY05-09-22
Lovely stay
This was our second time staying at the hotel. It is a beautiful, modern hotel. The Catalonia rewards scheme offers great value for money. My only issue on this stay was that the bathroom door was broken and we both got stuck inside. We informed reception but there was nothing they could do. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and we will definitely be back!

Great place to stay overnight in Bilbao
Good location, Clean and welcoming. No restaurant on site but plenty of places to eat close by. We parked using Telepark in a car park 5 mins walk from the hotel for 12 euros a day. The swimming pool on the top floor is more of a dip pool! The room was comfortable with a small balcony.
OLLINS HOLLINS21-08-22

Lovely place
Staff very attentive and friendly. Pool is small but boy it was very much appreciated. Could do with some parasols . Rooms are spacious and chamber maid does a great job. Central position . Didn't get much noise pollution just the odd bit of traffic. Breakfast caters for every taste . Freshly squeezed orange juice a must. All round a lovely place to stay.

Pleasant hotel
Catalonia Gran Via is a modern convenient hotel. Breakfast was good. Service pleasant. Rooms well-furnished.
JOHN DUXBURY07-07-22
A perfect stay
I stayed at this hotel for 3 days. The staff was friendly and attentive, my room was very comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring Bilbao. I greatly enjoyed the breakfast service and the rooftop pool. I would be happy to stay here again!
ERIN QUE05-07-22
Excellent location, high service level, clean room
Spent 3 nights in the modern Catalonia Gran Via Bilbao hotel and had a great stay. Large room with 2 baby beds and private balcony. Housekeeping did an excellent job daily and the reception services where sublime. Parking underneath the hotel just very simple and no need for a car as all central areas (Guggenheim, old city with cathedral, restaurants, parks) are within walking distance. Really enjoyed this stay at Catalonia compared to our more often/regular stays at Hilton or Marriott, so will certainly consider Catalonia as an option for future travel if they have a location in our destinations.
MAATEEN DRIESSEN28-06-22
Usual high quality
This chain has become my usual go-to when a hotel is available. Each one seems to be different but equal. This one seems to be a modern build, whether purpose or not. Comfortable room (thanks for the upgrade) with balcony. A nice breakfast room, and bar, with efficient and friendly staff. There's not been a Catalonia hotel I'd not return to.
NORMAN MACKENZIE08-06-22
Excente estadía en Bilbao
La habitación estuvo perfecta, la puntuación no es perfecta por la pobre selección de comida q ofrece la cafetería. Además el precio del desayuno es demasiado alto y solamente ofrecen la opción de desayuno buffet.
GILBERTO FRAGUADA07-06-22
Great stay!
Great location and great service! Staff was exceptionally kind and the rooms were well-serviced and comfortable. The spa was lovely. Food and drinks were slightly expensive though and the quality was less than you might expect.
