“weekend trip -excellent stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 February 2011

me and 3 friends stayed here for a football trip and i would say we had and excellent stay. first of all we did not eat here so i cant comment on the food in the hotel. there is a very good cafe across the road serving breakfast and tapas which was very handy. the hotel itself is in a very good position close to restaurants and nightlife, which are plentyful, and the hotel is in a central position. its very close to the river which offers good parkland walks , and also plaza el pilar is just around the corner. the hotel itself is bright and clean , rooms are well looked after , comfortable and are fairly roomy. the staff are excellent , and very helpful , giving us tips on where to eat and drink and helped us get tickets for the game we went to see. all in all a very good hotel with a really great price. zaragoaza itself is a lovely city , well worth a weekend trip, and the you will find the locals a very friendly bunch

“Excellent Central Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 January 2011

person found this review helpful

This hotel is in a perfect position to visit the beautiful city of Zaragoza. Reception staff were very welcoming and the room was comfortable and quiet. We had a view of the Basilica which was only 2 minutes walk away. The other big plus is the free WiFi throughout the whole hotel - why don't other hotels provide this excellent service for free ?Everthing is within walking distance - the old town with many bars and restaurants and the more modern shopping area around the Plaza Espana. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to Zaragoza before too many other visitors discover it. There is an airport bus which takes 45 minutes and costs 1.60€ - this drops you at the edge of the city and then you have to walk (15 mins) or take a taxi 5€. A taxi from the hotel direct to the airport takes 25 mins - 17€.

The hotel was nice and the staff was very helpful. The location is very central. However, the beds and pillows were uncomfortable. Overall, good experience and would recommend.

“Excellent hotel, good value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2011

Catalonia Zaragoza Plaza is everything you would want a hotel to be in a smaller city. It is in the middle of the tourist area, close to everything. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good and reasonably priced. Only problem was dinner in the hotel; skip it. We were too lazy to go out, but we should have. Parking is available in a garage a couple of blocks away. Front desk is very helpful with directions, and generally very hepful. Very good choice in Zaragoza.

“Great location, short beds”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2011

The location of the hotel is superb! Right in the center and quite silent at the same time. Rooms are of very small size, not mentioning that the bed was really too short!!! The reception was not willing to find a solution, did not propose an upgrade, nothing… Simply ignored the complain. Since purpose of the hotel is to offer great sleep, this one was terrible- short, extremely hard beds…
