Hotels With Bars in Aragon, Spain

My stay at the Catalonia El Pilar was nothing short of exceptional. This hotel has a charm and quality that far exceeds its official four-star rating, and I firmly believe it deserves a fifth star. From the moment I entered, I was struck by the beautiful, character-filled decor. The hotel masterfully blends historic charm with modern comfort, creating a unique and inviting atmosphere. This sense of character extends to the rooms, which are impeccably clean and spacious. The excellence began at check-in with the wonderfully helpful and efficient receptionist service. Every staff member I encountered was professional and genuinely dedicated to ensuring a perfect stay. The breakfast was another highlight, offering a wide and delicious selection of hot and cold items that provided the perfect start to each day of exploration. It is clear that the management is doing an excellent job. The seamless operation, the motivated staff, and the meticulous attention to detail throughout the property speak volumes about their leadership. A final note on the location: Zaragoza itself is an amazing city, a captivating blend of history, culture, and vibrant local life. For better or worse, it remains wonderfully off-the-beaten-track for the majority of travelers, making it a truly authentic Spanish discovery. Combining this incredible city with a hotel of such high caliber makes for an unforgettable trip. I would not hesitate to return and cannot recommend the Catalonia El Pilar highly enough

The staff felt unfriendly from the start. Their attitude was cold and rigid. There was no sense of warmth or welcome. Interactions felt uncomfortable. I couldn’t wait to leave. Booking anything was overly strict. The pool and restaurant required rigid time slots. It didn’t feel like a vacation. It felt controlled instead of relaxing. The rules took away the enjoyment. At the restaurant, I wanted to look around and admire the design, but I was told to stay seated. It felt patronizing and unnecessary, like being treated as a child. I’ve never felt this uncomfortable before. Only at checkout, I was told the pool cost extra. This was never clearly mentioned before, but regardless of this ”misunderstanding”, for a five-star hotel to charge extra for using the pool is very disappointing. It felt cheap and not what you expect at this premium level. The hotel is beautiful and the food was delicious. Unfortunately, the staff ruins the experience, and their attitude overshadows everything else. I recommend to visit it if you're passing by the area, but I wouldn’t recommend sleeping here at all.

Hotel location is very good, just on the edge of the Plaza de España in the city center, very close to Pilar Square, about 700 meters walk for a few minutes, not as crowded as the old city. The room was clean and tidy, but it was not convenient to lack hand sanitizer or soap. The breakfast content is slightly simple. The night view of Pilar Square is very beautiful, and there is time to go to the other side of the river to see more beautiful.

Located inside of Zaragoza rail station ,super nice to access to another places as a connected transportation.I selected a suit room and enjoyed spacious lounge.very suitable for business travelers who rush to move.but the hotel is being built along the station building, super long horizontally ,hard to walk from elevator ,my room was quite far from elevator even if it was in the middle of building.so might not be a good choice for lazybones .the heater did not work well ,probably due to the big room, I had a cold night unfortunately.if you want to hang out in the downtown, had better book other hotels near central area.

Un hotel básico que para dormir en un viaje de trabajo está bien, con el parking justo delante.

Facilities: The hotel has convenient parking. The garage is behind the main entrance of the hotel. There are not many restaurants around the hotel. It is not in the main city of Zaragoza. Sanitation: The sanitation is good. Environment: The surrounding area is relatively spacious and is considered a new area. Service: To be honest, the front desk service is average, but the hotel is generally good.

The hotel is in excellent conditions. The location is ideal for my intention, the large room, only little light if you have to put a but, and the bathroom was not missing a pearl. Very happy.

Enjoyed our one night stay. The room is cozy and matched our expectations with this price. The view outside the window is not bad as well. We also paid 25 euro per person more to enjoy the spa facilities for one hour which we find worth the money if you are looking for a relaxing session after a day of hiking. The spa is not the biggest or grandest but it does its job with hamman, sauna, jacuzzi, etc. It's quiet during our visit with no one else so basically we had a private experience. Remember to bring your flipflops and swim cap which are mandatory.

The hotel is well-equipped with amenities like a kettle, and it's conveniently located with many local shops nearby. The cathedral is also within walking distance. The hotel offers valet parking, which isn't cheap at €27 for 24 hours. When we went to pick up our car, the front desk attendant made a mistake and brought the wrong one, causing a delay of over ten minutes. The breakfast was plentiful, but there was no à la carte option; it was a standard four-star offering. We only stayed one night, and during the day, there was a lot of noise from renovations on the same floor, as shown in picture 3.

I had a very comfortable stay. All the staff were kind and had lovely smiles. It was a shame that there was construction going on from the entrance to the front desk. The location was also great, right next to the Gran Via station, making it convenient for going to department stores and downtown. I would like to stay there again if I have the opportunity.
