Hotel 4-Star di 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

There are McDonald's and local restaurants next to it, a dia supermarket is a five-minute walk away, and it takes about 19 minutes to walk to the Church of Our Lady. Parking is very convenient.

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.

What an amazing find, we where very happy staying here. Rooms are fantastic, just as shown in the pictures, clean tidy, spacious, large bathroom minibar in the room with reasonable priced items. Check in was very easy and we left our bags as we where early, staff very helpful checking us in and offering directions of places to visit. Hotel located close to town, stations and eateries, we had a great base for exploring Zaragoza. Breakfast was good, plenty of items to choose from, good selection of food and coffee (via a coffee machine). The hotel is superb itself, not dated, not in need of updates its just perfect. We didnt use the in house restaurant as we ate out in plenty of the others in the area.

Hugely disappointing. Although the hotel is clean with large double rooms and well situated, it was a huge disappointment to see the state of this 4 star hotel which is in desperate need of renovation. It is simply shameful that a hotel which bears the name of one of Zaragoza's most illustrious painters of all times has been left to such a poor and outdated décor and still charging 4 star rates. Not acceptable on so many levels. This hotel belongs to the same company owning two fabulous 5 star hotels Palafox and Reina Petronila. Hotel Goya is no longer a 4* hotel and should be degraded to a very old 3* star, one in urgent need of a total refurbishment.

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.

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.

Our second time staying at this hotel and it was good. We arrived with two small dogs. In order to avoid our dogs causing noise and inconvenience to other guests if we left the room, we decided to have room service. Reception advised room service was available from 20.30, however when we called ro place food order at 20.30 we were told the kitchen was closed because they were preparing for a wedding next day. A big disappointment!!. The city itself is beautiful and the people are so nice. We hope to visit again in 2025.

I was away from the city at the weekend and asked staff if I could have the same room on my return. They happily obliged.

Location: The hotel is well-located, with many restaurants nearby. It’s about a 15-minute walk to the main attractions, making it quite convenient for getting around. Service: The service is average—nothing particularly enthusiastic as rumored, but no major issues either. Facilities :The facilities are generally okay, but the comfort of the mattress leaves something to be desired and could use improvement. Cleanliness: Cleanliness is acceptable, with no significant problems noted.
