Santuario De Torreciudad

Though I prefer the nh cuidad in Zaragoza, my brother preferred to stay here because he thinks the breakfast buffet here is better . I think it’s the same and the nh cuidad is better situated ( being in front of the Ebro river and just beside the majestic basilica of Our Lady of the Pilar ) . This nh collection hotel in Zaragoza is your classic “grand hotel “ … it has a valet for your car. A clean nice gym though the treadmill wasn’t working and the sauna wasn’t hot enough so I didn’t bother going into the sauna after my elliptical session . The breakfast buffet is what you would expect from the nh chain of hotels . Lots of Spanish ham , eggs made to order , Spanish breads and pastries but after 2 weeks around the north of Spain the food can get a bit redundant but if this is your first stop then it can be a real treat . We were upgraded to a better room so thanks to that lovely receptionist who spoke French and English . This particular nh is a bit farther from the Basilica del Pilar but it is close to the shopping areas ( El Corte ingles ) . This hotel is also close to the “El Tubo” sector which is famous for its night life and tapas bars . If you get tired of tapas there is a KFC 5 minutes from the hotel .

It was a lovely hotel in a good location. It was also a large room with a large bathroom

The room was in good condition. The staff went above and beyond to make the stay as enjoyable as possible. The downside is the noise level and the fact that some rooms facing west can get very hot in the afternoon before sunset.
