Dinners - Hotel Palafox and Virgin of the Pillar

When in Zaragoza, dinner at the Palafox is a must have. It is alone reason to travel to Zaragoza. The breakfast buffet was extraordinary as well. Well situated to see Old Town Zaragoza as well where a most important cathedral-basilica has a home. It’s called Virgin of the Pillar

Nice hotel with excellent breakfast

The hotel is over all very nice and clean. A bit older already in some parts and would give a 4 star rating. Well located near the city center and old town. Impossible to find parking outside, so be ready to pay the garage 20€/day if you have a car. The breakfast was the best part and is really tasty, well balanced and high quality. The staff were friendly but nothing special, would have expected a bit more, that little extra note. We stayed two nights and the key cards stopped working after one day, so some mistake in the check in. No apologies given when waiting in the reception to get the cards activated.

Distinctly average - not 5 star

Whilst the staff are great and the foyer is beautiful, everywhere else, particularly the rooms, are extremely dated and in desperate need of modernisation. The luxurious sun beds in the photos are not the same either - in fact the pool terrace isn’t great either - again, needs updating - just 2 umbrellas. The breakfast was distinctly average and certainly not 5 star - you spend every day looking for staff to request that more butter or bread be put out of for the milk/water in the coffee machine to be filled up. Again - not 5 star!

While the hotel shouts out its historic five star rating, which is to say the least just a bit ambitious, it is nevertheless a value-for-money “go to” option for visiting Zaragoza. Well located for walking to the old city and host of lively tapas bars nearby, the standard room was spacious, with minibar, a sitting area for two and large bathroom. It did not have any tea or coffee making facilities in the room, but the breakfast was generous. We also dined in the hotel one night and rated the food highly. We would stay at this hotel again.

This is an OLD hotel with too much of everything in the room. I would clean the room out of wood, curtains and all the ugly stuff around the room. Food is great and service is good. But hotel needs renovation.

The bathroom I had was outdated. Staff is very friendly and the mind set reaches a high level. In a 5 star hotel the roomservice should be available at least during daytime and not only during lunch and dinner.

Hotel Palafox is an Elegant Choice in Zaragoza

Hotel Palafox proved to be a delightful choice in central Zaragoza, and one which we would recommend highly. Located on a short, quiet street, it is only a few minutes’ walk to busy commercial areas with numerous shops and restaurants. For example, the Basilica of Our Lady of the Pillar, perhaps the best known tourist destination in Zaragoza, is just a pleasant 15- or 20-minute walk away. The staff are professional and accommodating, while our room was spacious and warm. Likewise, the on-site restaurant, Aragonia, served delicious dishes in an elegant setting — we liked it so much that we ate dinner there two of our three nights in the the city. We also ate in the well appointed bar and were very happy with our experience. In short, Hotel Palafox is an excellent choice for travelers who want to pamper themselves in Zaragoza.
