The spa is a pleasant highlight for many, offering a range of amenities in a relaxing environment despite its smaller size.
The gym, albeit small, is well-maintained and adequately equipped, providing a convenient option for guests looking to maintain their fitness routines. The rooftop pool, though noted for its modest size, offers a pleasant spot to relax with warm water and stunning views from the terrace, despite occasional crowding and limited operating hours.
Parking at the hotel is convenient with secure underground garage options, though availability and the inability to reserve in advance can be a drawback. The cost is seen as high by some, but the benefit of on-site parking in a central location is a notable advantage.
Overall, Catalonia Gran Vía Bilbao excels in providing a comfortable, clean and conveniently located stay supported by exceptional staff service, making it an ideal choice for visitors to Bilbao.
