Housed in a lovely modernist building on a charming square, the two-and-a-half pearl Catalonia El Pilar offers a convenient location in Zaragoza's historic center that's close to most sites, as well as plenty of restaurants and bars. Guest rooms are simply decorated, but pleasant, with large marble bathrooms and a modest set of amenities like flat-screen TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi. Superior Rooms add extras like espresso machines and both jetted tubs and separate showers. A handful of amenities adds convenience to a stay here, including a sparsely equipped fitness center, buffet breakfasts (for a fee), a lobby bar, and a meeting room. Dinner is also available at the on-site restaurant. For something with more features, check out the Alfonso Hotel or the Hotel Reina Petronila, both of which have pools.
