Indeed, in the capital city of Aragon one can observe Roman, Muslim, Jewish and Christian remnants spreading for over 2000 years. Besides, its resistance against the troops of Napoleon is just legendary. Right in the middle of the province, this city provides a rich offer of gastronomy and entertainment. If you are planning on sleeping in Zaragoza, we suggest you keep reading; this way, you will find the accommodation that meets your needs best.

Where to sleep in the old town of Zaragoza

Hotel Palafox is a good option for sleeping in Zaragoza, right in its old town. This five-star hotel has a lovely rooftop which displays a stunning sight of the city. It has an elegant shape and a classic decoration. The hotel's facilities include a remarkable spa with a sauna and a gym. Moreover, its restaurant serves traditional Aragonese dishes and its cellar keeps an interesting stock of wines.

Another outstanding hotel in Zaragoza's old town is Hotel Hiberus. It has bright rooms with light colours; and they even offer a pillow menu! At large, all rooms are modern and elegant. On another note, the restaurant serves avant-garde dishes made with traditional ingredients. In addition, it has a nice summer rooftop with a sight of Zaragoza everyone shall fall in love with.

Where to sleep in the town centre of Zaragoza

Still in the proximity of the centre, bur further away from the old town, we will find the luxury hotel of Reina Petronila. This hotel offers excellent services and it lies in a privilege location. The rooms are wide and bright, with large, comfortable beds. The suites have TV Magic Mirrors on the bathroom mirrors, and the hotel bar is remarkably modern. The Reina Petronila is also considered as a sophisticated business centre. Consequently, it has lecture halls that can welcome up to 600 people.

Another good option for sleeping in Zaragoza is the modern Hotel Villa Gomá, next to the Miguel Servet Hospital. The way it is decorated sets an example of fine taste. It has multiple workspaces, and its rooms are simple yet they hold incredibly comfortable beds.

Where to sleep on the outskirts of Zaragoza

If the traveller would rather move away from the centre and sleep on the outskirts of the city, there are good alternatives like the one in San Juan de Mozarrifar. There we have, for example, Hotel & Spa Real Ciudad de Zaragoza. The decoration of its rooms is quite simple, but they are wide and bright. Likewise, just like its name suggests, it holds a spa with beauty treatments, a sauna, a Turquish bath and hot tubs. We can also enjoy there a delicious buffet breakfast.
