The Granvía Hotel building was built in 1870 by master architect Jerónimo Gralls, and was originally designed as a palace for the Serra-Chopitea family. In 1935, it was converted into a hotel.

Today it is still home to important 19th century works of art previously owned by Doña Dorotea Chopitea, a patron of Salesian works in Barcelona. Among the sites that have been maintained are the Salón Gran Vía, the Salón Don Bosco, la Capilla, the room of Doña Dorotea and the entire Principal Gallery, with its arcades and columns. Its beautiful, original walls have appeared in numerous films, and have been the focus of countless reports, interviews and official presentations.

The Granvía Hotel has 53 rooms, each one distinct from the next, but all boasting impressive architectural and decorative accents that form a part of the historical legacy of the building. They each have marble floors, full bath, air conditioning, heating, satellite TV, minibar and safe. The hotel also has a TV and reading room, a Business Center with free Internet access (ADSL Broadband), a large terrace garden – 500m2 in which to indulge in total relaxation and comfort, as well as public parking just 20 meters away from the hotel.

If you are looking for a place to celebrate, hold conferences, or entertain, the Granvía Hotel has 3 conference rooms for you to choose from, each fully equipped and able to accommodate up to 100 people.

Located in the city center, the hotel is right beside Plaza Catalunya and Paseo de Gracia, two of the major architectural landmarks of the city.
