The rooftop would be neat but it was closed. The linens are old garbage. The non-movable twin beds are just dumb. That should be marketed as a standard room for couples. It is a double all over the world.

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!

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

If this was a 5 star hotel, it must have been 50 years ago. The decor is very old and shabby The rooms look like they haven’t been refurbished in decades. They use out dated and obscure methods of storing details. The wanted to manually save my credit card number in their computer, instead of blocking my card for a set amount. meaning i had to pay €50 with a UK card and then refund me on departure. This mean i lose about £5 just to ensure a safe method of giving a deposit. The air conditioning didn’t cool the room and when i asked, they said, “just open the window”. that’s fine until the traffic noise starts in the morning. The door to my room squeezed continuously, every time i used it. I am on a long work trip for 20+ days, but decided to move hotels at the opportunity, i won’t be back , that’s for sure

An unpleasant welcome experience

At check-in, we were assigned a room, but upon entering, we were shocked by its condition, the smell, and the dirt. It was hard to believe that such a room could exist in what is supposed to be a 5-star hotel. The room was located at the farthest end of the third floor and appeared to be in this state because it was equipped for disabled guests and had likely been unused for a long time. Initially, I was informed that no other rooms were available, but fortunately, they eventually relocated us to a much nicer room.
