I have just come home after a wonderful stay in the Catalonia Gran Via :). We booked for three nights in the Junior Suite, this was equipped with a big bathroom, Jacuzzi bath, big king sized bed and our own terrace with a pool. I think this hotel does depend on your perspective, for example if your the kind of... More

We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights with a group. The location of the hotel is great with many attractions within easy walking distance. However, the hotel was full and could not cope with the numbers for breakfast. The layout of the breakfast area was disatrous with customers waiting for long periods to get any food or drink, there... More

We stayed here with a group in May 2013. The rooms were comfortable and had most amenities including an excellent large bathroom. Good TV choice and mini bar.

This hotel is in ideally placed in Madrid and reception was very welcoming when we arrived. All staff managed to communicate reasonably well in English ( those people complaining that people in other countries don't speak good English should maybe consider making the effort to learn the language of the country you visit!!) the room was clean and spacious enough...

The hotel is bang in the middle of Madrid's busy shopping thoroughfare, just a few metres away from Gran Via metro station. All of Madrid's tourist sights are within walking distance. The hotel has a welcoming lobby and the staff at the reception desk is quite cordial. They did their best to communicate in English (most of the Spanish people... More

Nice hotel, good position with lots of attractions within walking distance. Friendly and helpful staff. Baggage room to leave luggage if you arrive before your room is ready and if your flight is quite late when you leave. Good breakfast for 10 euros, comfortable clean room with plenty of hot water. Would stay there again.

Very good location at Gran Via. Shopping, dining, hop-on/off tour bus across the street. 5 mins to Sol city centre. Our room (411) was spacious. Bathroom was a bit tight in one area because of the bidet. Good room amenities. Fast (free) internet. Staff are professional and attentive. Breakfast buffet for EU10 is a bargain, good selection.

We booked 2 rooms for 3 nights without breakfast, the prices were really good compared to "Catalonia Plaza Cataluña" in Barcelona, but much less quality of furniture and no good view for both rooms. One of the rooms was really small for a double room. I don't recommend this hotel, and not planning to stay in it again.
