My friend and I stayed in this hotel and were impressed by it. Hotel is modern and clean. Staff were polite. We asked for a quiet room as we did not want a room facing the main road. Room was at the side and was indeed quiet, did not hear traffic. The room was clean and very tidy. There was... More

The hotel is in the center of the city, neear to the metro station. It is clean and the staff is frendly. The breakfast was plentiful and diversified. If we will come back to Madrid, Catalonia Grad Via will be our first choise.

The hotel Catalonia Gran Via is really in the heart of Centro zone of Madrid(5 mins walk to Puerta del Sol)The staff was very helpful and yes, the recepsionists can speak English! Rooms were clean and bathroom as well. The price was affordable, you'd better check this hotel if you plan to visit Madrid.

I was there for a week, April 15-21, 2012. There was nothing wrong with this hotel at all. I had none of the problems some other reviewers describe. The room was fine, the breakfast buffet was good, my 5th floor room looked out over a side street, but rarely was there much noise. The hotel tended to be a little... More

This hotel is very cheap and well located in the centre of Madrid. I can see why.... It's very dated inside and I had a choice between either a room that smelt terrible or a room with a view of a wall and that's it. Not recommended. Clearly not 4 stars as they say.

Again, I can't say this is the nicest four star hotel I've stayed in. Pretty basic amenities and the rooms were basic as well. This was a really great location! It was central to everything in the city. The Reina Sofia was the farthest site we walked to and it was only about 15-20 minutes. El prado is 10 minutes... More
