Location
Nestled at the summit of Formigal, 'HG Alto Aragón' boasts an exceptional location with unparalleled views of the surrounding mountains and countryside.

The breathtaking vistas from both the rooms and common areas, including a scenic terrace, contribute to the hotel's charming mountain ambiance.

Amenities such as the first-class breakfast, a good spa and spacious rooms enhance the guest experience. Despite being somewhat removed from the town center and entertainment venues, this isolation is often seen as a benefit, offering peace and a quiet atmosphere. The hotel's location is complemented by friendly staff, a convenient in-house equipment rental service and a good range of facilities, including a pool.

The picturesque environment and the admirable views are highly endorsed by visitors, making 'HG Alto Aragón' a superb destination for those seeking a harmonious blend of comfort, nature and alpine activities.

Several guests found the dinner options to be scarce, occasionally cold and not replenished adequately. Many felt that the dinner was expensive for what was offered with some noting that it did not justify the cost and could be considered below the hotel’s standard. The need to reserve dinner 24 hours in advance and the multitasking wait staff catering to both the bar and dining room also detracted from the overall experience for some.

Wi-Fi
The WiFi at HG Alto Aragón receives mixed feedback from guests. Positive highlights include mentions of very good and excellent WiFi, particularly noted alongside modern and spacious bathroom facilities. There is also free WiFi available at the hotel. However, several guests report that the WiFi only works in the lobby with no connectivity in the rooms and that it doesn't reach the third floor. There are instances of WiFi issues for the duration of their stay and some guests were not informed about WiFi availability upon arrival. Despite the free WiFi, the limited range and connectivity issues in the rooms present a notable drawback.

Spa
HG Alto Aragón offers a spa experience that, while appreciated by some, leaves much to be desired for others. The spa area includes facilities like a pool, sauna and jacuzzi and offers services such as massages, which guests found excellent thanks to professional therapists like Isabel. However, the spa itself is often described as small and simple with outdated amenities. Some guests reported issues such as poor lighting, neglected areas and occasional unpleasant smells. Furthermore, the spa can get crowded and securing appointments during peak times can be difficult. Despite these drawbacks, the spa provides a pleasant way to unwind, especially after a day of skiing, although it does seem to require some improvements to meet the higher expectations of guests.

Gym
The gym at HG Alto Aragón is noted for being quite small and modest with limited equipment that does not fully align with the promotional photos. The facilities include a couple of ellipticals, two treadmills and a stationary bike, which some guests feel falls short of expectations for a 4-star hotel. The ventilation and temperature control have also been commented on with reports of the gym area being a bit cold. Overall, the simplicity and minimal offerings of the gym leave room for improvement and may not satisfy guests looking for a more comprehensive fitness experience.

Pool
HG Alto Aragón's pool and spa facilities generate a mix of impressions among guests. Many appreciate the inclusion of these amenities in the price, finding the spa and pool enjoyable, especially after a day of skiing or hiking. Some guests highlight that the heated pool is quite delightful, though the temperature of the water has been a point of contention, ranging from very cold to overly warm.

The pool's size and condition also receive varied comments. It is described as slightly small and showing minor signs of wear, yet still capable of providing enjoyment. The indoor pool facilities are noted as spacious and impeccable, but the pool can feel overwhelming during peak times.

It's important to note that the pool isn't part of the hotel itself but a community or municipal pool which is some distance away, an aspect that may come as a surprise. Despite some minor issues like the lack of changing rooms and occasional noise, many guests find the pool to be a nice feature overall.

Parking
When it comes to parking at HG Alto Aragón, guests have a mix of experiences to share. A key highlight is the availability of free parking right in front of the hotel, which many find convenient, particularly for a stop before embarking on a hike or climb. Nonetheless, the free spaces tend to be limited and often insufficient to accommodate all vehicles, leading some guests to search for parking elsewhere.

For those seeking assured parking, the hotel offers secure indoor spaces, albeit for an additional fee of €20 to €22 per day. This has been seen as a comfortable option, given the direct access to rooms from the parking area. Motorcyclists also find the parking very suitable.

The outdoor parking, while an appreciated facility, is often noted as being too small and unprepared for snow, which could be a drawback in winter months. Despite the modest size of the parking area, the hotel is praised for its excellent overall organization, including amenities such as ski lockers and in-house equipment rental. All in all, while parking has its limitations, the combination of free and paid options provides flexibility that suits various needs.

Excellent staff service, a ski shop, massage services and catering options have also been highlighted. Ideal for both resting and skiing, the hotel is conveniently located in a picturesque ski resort surrounded by beautiful mountain landscapes.

4 Star
HG Alto Aragón presents a mix of appealing features and several notable shortcomings, especially when evaluated against its four-star designation. While the hotel is visually pleasing and has satisfactory bathroom and spa facilities, many guests feel it does not uphold the expected quality of a four-star establishment. The rooms have received criticism for being outdated and not matching the promotional photos with complaints of uncomfortable mattresses and lackluster soundproofing.

The dining experience drew significant criticism with guests finding the quality of breakfast and overall food service to be below the standard one expects from a four-star hotel. Additionally, the gym facilities were considered inadequate, highlighting a need for better maintenance or upgrading.

Service-wise, language barriers at the reception were unexpected and disappointing for many guests. Some also noted minor inconveniences such as the absence of bedside sockets and additional pillows, which, though small, contributed to an overall feeling of the accommodation falling short of its four-star promise.

While the hotel does cater to a broad range of guests and provides a generally pleasant environment, areas like noise control, staff bilingualism and meal quality need improvement to meet the four-star criteria effectively. The pricing for certain rooms also left guests feeling that the value did not match the cost, reinforcing the perception that the hotel operates more at a three-star level despite its four-star branding.
