Good experience

We were given a very warm welcome and an upgrade on arrival. The room was clean and comfortable. We were also offered a welcome drink and complimentary water in the room. We chose to have breakfast at the hotel which was good with a wide choice of food. Very well positioned for airport bus and for walking to places of interest. Overall a good experience.

Great hotel

We loved everything about it. The room, the powerful shower. The friendliness & helpfulness of the staff. The breakfast although a little pricy compared to other hotels we’ve stayed in.

Nice hotel but dining experience let it down

The hotel is in a great central location within Bilbao. We arrived early in Bilbao and were pleasantly surprised that reception were able to allow us an early check-in and also offered a room upgrade (as a rewards member). The room was very clean and was modern in design with all the facilities that you would expect. If returning to Bilbao I would probably stay at the hotel again but not dine at the hotel. The menu was poor and after we had selected from the menu we were told that a number of choices were not available which limited our choice even further. Offering crisps as an accompaniment instead of fries does not make for a good dining experience. Management need to review the menu and availability of choices. It would appear that the hotel are not interested in targeting the dinner market. We last stayed at the Catalonia Hotel in Ronda and the meal experience was one of the best that we have had in Spain. This was why we chose the Catalonia Gran Via Bilbao - what a disappointment!

3 Night Stay in Bilbao

We had a wonderful stay at the Catalonia Hotel in Bilbao. From the moment we walked in til the morning we checked out. The staff was very helpful, friendly and informative. They went out of their way to make sure all of our needs were taken care of. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful hotel

We really enjoyed our stay here. From check in, we could tell this was a lovely hotel due to the friendliness of the staff. We felt very welcome. The room was clean, spacious and modern. It was very comfortable. The hotel offered great facilities such as a pool, a spa and a gym. The bar was lovely and comfortable with a lot of choice for food and drinks.

HOSPITALITY AT IT'S BEST

I have stayed in other hotels in Bilbao in my previous trips and I enjoyed the fact that they were located by the riverside. When my colleague suggested Catalonia, I was not really moved, but I was informed that Catalonia is less than one year old. Since I have flare for new hotels I opted to try the place. At first impression I did not see a large parking space for vehicles so I assumed it must be a very small hotel. Everything about what I think changed when I entered the Reception of the Hotel. The beautiful smiles on the faces of the Receptionists and the manner of welcoming us said a lot of the friendliness of the Hotel. By the time we were introduced to the rooms and the inside compartments of the hotel, you will really feel the ambience of a 5-Star hotel. I wish my stay was a little longer to enjoy other activities in the Hotel. But not to worry, another visit will establish my already impressed mind. Keep being yourself. Warm regards.

City Slicker

Well positioned for short walks to Old Town and Guggenheim Museum. Bust stop for airport 50 metres away. Staff welcoming and helpful. Upgraded to balcony room. Thank you

HENRY DODD31-03-22

Lovely hotel, good central Bilbao location

Everything about the hotel very good. Staff very helpful and friendly. Facilities good. Prices fair. About 20 minutes' walk from the buzz of the old town. Nice area. Park just across the road.

JOHN OCONNELL31-03-22

Long Weekend

Lovely new hotel. Fabulous Staff. Booked the Junior Suite. Very modern but small, narrow and dark. Only one small window at the end of the bedroom and balcony so small that it only fitted one chair. Also lots of noise in the night from water tanks filling or similar also lift bell was constant!

MICHELLE MCGOVERN21-03-22

Excellent

We were in Bilbao to visit family but wanted independence!! It is a great hotel, really friendly staff, great location. We got a free upgrade to a superior room which was a lovely bonus. We will definitely stay here again. Thanks

EMER ROBLEDO14-03-22

Great Location

The room was very lovely and comfortable. The showers were amazing and well stocked as was the coffee station. We were disappointed to learn that the spa/hot tub would cost 15 euros per person per 50 minute entry. This was not explained during the booking process nor was it anywhere on the website. The primary purpose for booking this hotel was to relax and we were unable to take advantage of what was offered due to our budget.

Excellent Brand New Hotel - Great Service from all staff

We had a short stay at Catalonia during our short visit to Bilbao. It was everything we looked for in a hotel, new facilities, the well decorated and modern room we had looked brand new (we were told the hotel opened in April 2021). We received such polite, friendly and attentive service from every staff we encountered, particularly from Claudia which deserves a special mention. I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit to Bilbao.

YEOW HENG10-12-21

Hotel

Excellent hotel, however, I think that charging 20€ per day for a pet is excessive. Also, the WiFi signal is not reliable, making it very difficult to watch videos or engage in meetings.

REBECCA FRANCIS09-12-21

Great Stay

Good location, great staff and a quiet comfortable night's sleep means I would definitely stay here again

STEPHEN TIMOTHY FENWICK14-11-21

Nice local treat

This hotel is clean modern and well staffed. The service was attentive and friendly. The breakfast selections were huge and made to ordered at the buffet table if you wanted bacon , eggs or an omelet. My room was ample in size and quiet as it faced the inner court

JOSEPH ANTHONY PASTEWKA13-11-21

Travel with pets

We just stayed on the hotel for one night in Bilbao but it was amazing! Everything is new and spotless, and you notice the attention to detail in the rooms and in the team. Personally, we travel with our pets often enough and never felt as welcome and comfortable as with them - since minute one :) The pets rules the apply are very untestable and they make your stay very easy. The hotel is located a few minutes walking from the Guggenheim, San Mamés Stadium and a large park. There are many cafes, bart ans restaurant around the hotel too. Thank you again, we will be back!

SCOTT ANTHONY PHELAN25-10-21

Two nights in Bilbao

Great location for shopping and dining. About a mile from the very touristic “old downtown “. Has parking which is quite important in downtown Bilbao. Very comfortable rooms and overall facilities.
