Occidental Barcelona 1929

Petit dejeuner tres bien fourni, un peu cher toutefois. La piscine assez decevànte. Mis en valeur en photo mais pas du tout celle attendue.

The hotel and room were exceptionally clean and well maintained, the roof deck was pleasant even with the bar area closed for the season. There is a pool up there but did not get to take advantage of it. Highly recommend going up anyway just cuz it has a great view and nice place to relax. The staff are all welcoming and the rooms are nice and quiet. Great proximity to just about all Metro lines as well as the Aerobus for the airport. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a convenient hotel when visiting Barcelona

Nice hotel and room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was also good. Pool area is quite small so difficult getting a lounger in the day. Underground parking was great to have although on the pricey side. Conveniently located easy to get around.

The breakfast and the gym are excellent. The pool was smaller than expected.

The room was clean and full of useful enmities. The pool area is okay. There is no staff to attend to the pool area, which would have been nice. There is no food served in the pool area. The water was extremely cold.

Fint hotell med toppenbra läge. Att hotellet dessutom har en pool på takterrassen och ett rymligt parkeringsgarage var mycket värt för oss. Hit återvänder vi gärna!

Great hotel with on site parking.

Vriendelijk personeel, heerlijk ontbijt, goede kamer, heerlijk dakterras met bar. Zwembad was alleen steenkoud ;-) Verder erg naar onze zin gehad

La zone géographique est juste parfaite ce n’est pas dans le centre meme de Barcelone mais accessible avec le métro en bas de l’hotel en 20 min! Un centre commercial, des supermercats,des boutiques, des restaurants on retrouve tous dans les ries adjacentes. Il y’a meme non loins des points historiques monuments et des spots pour une belle vu. Nous avions effectué le check in en amont sur le téléphone ce que je recommande vraiment car nous avons du attendre derrière des groupes qui ne l’avaient pas fait et honnêtement c’est long. Un ascenseur sur les 2 n’était pas en fonctionnement du séjour et les temps d’attente pour l’ascenseur étaient donc longs, il restait meme bloqué de temps en temps. Nous logions au 7eme étages donc vous imaginez. Sinon tous les espaces communs sont très bien entretenus le personnel toujours au petit soin ils ont même fait l’effort de nous parler français. A l’occasion de l’anniversaire de compagnon ils ont fait le geste de mettre un gâteau a notre retour de journée avec une petite carte lui souhaitant bon anniversaire. Belle chambre lumineuse avec la possibilité d’ouvrir la fenêtre sans danger. Un lit immense et une bonne literie! La salle de bain bien éclairée mais la pression autant pour le lavabo que la douche n’est pas top. Le robinet de douche goutté d’ailleurs. La possibilité de passer en le jet d’eau en pluie fine qui tombe donc sur notre tête était cassé dommage. J’ai retrouvé de kit de cirage et aussi un défroisser ce qui n’est pas habituel.

I liked this hotel, it was clean. Good area. The only downside is the pool area is soooooo small

Sobald man das Hotel betritt, vergisst man, dass man in einer lauten, geschäftigen, teils sehr dreckigen und stinkender Großstadt ist! Die Musik, der Duft, die Wärme, die die Gäste empfängt, ist wunderbar. Der Empfang war super freundlich und nett! Das Zimmer ist klein, ebenso der Pool auf dem Dach, dafür ist das Gym nicht schlecht ausgestattet für ein Workout auf dem Weekendtrip. Das Frühstück hat keine riesengroße Auswahl, aber trotzdem für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei. Auch die Mädels dort waren immer gut gelaunt und aufmerksam. Alles in Allem top, lässt sich ohne Probleme eine Weile aushalten dort!

Modern welcoming hotel in central area very close to metro and other transport ( easy access to Sants main station) Friendly efficient receptionists. Spacious well appointed quiet rooms. Good breakfasts. Value for money.

We had a pleasant stay. The location is really great to discover the city. The rooms are small but have everything you need and the interior is quite new. The staff is very friendly. The only minus point: the minibar was not cleaned and was full of hair and dirt.

Friendly staff. Clean room.

Clean and fresh rooms. AC working very good. Drain in the shower smelled of sewage. Breakfast severely missing vegan options. When asking if they had anything vegan, I was given gluten-free croissants which contained eggs.

Spotless room, great shower, friendly staff and right in the heart of Barcelona, 20 minute walk to La Rambla and Port Vell with immediate access to the metro! Would definitely recommend staying here!

My air condition felt like it wasn’t working properly so the room was too hot. I’ve asked at the reception to check it and they said it takes 20 minutes to pick up. At that point it was late and I just slept with not working air con. The next negative part of my experience was that I stepped over a piece of broken glass injuring my foot. This should have been cleaned properly to avoid any injuries.

The room on the surface looks pretty good but the towels were really thin and worn out which is kind of disappointing considering it's a four-star property. Overall decent stay would recommend.

Convenient location next to placa d’espanya with access to the metro at FGC train network. The arenas shopping centre is across the road. Room is basic and small and cleaning if the room left a lot to be desired. 3 stars for the location and friendly staff.

Great location, very close to Metro and buses. Nice room, very clean and nicely decorated. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast.

Everything was fine, except the fact, the whole hotel was shaking when underground trains were passing, the first started around 5 am …

Check was painfully slow asking for list of unnecessary contact details for both of us! AC was noisy but otherwise very good comfortable and well located an clean

The hotel was very conveniently situated. Room was good with an extremely comfortable bed. Great bathroom with a huge shower. We would definitely come again.

Overall, this is a good hotel best suited to either very short stays (a night or 2, at most) or just for sleeping and showering. A major pro is the very convenient location close to the Metro station (Placa de Espana), bus stop near the front door, and various inexpensive eateries. Wi-fi speed was OK and just good enough for my needs on this non-business trip. The room (I had the lowest price double room) seemed fairly new to me and had a nice modern minimalist design. The overall room size was fine, but the space could have been utilized better. The bathroom was way bigger than it needed to be. There was a lack of storage space (some space was available to hang a half dozen short garments but that was it for clothes) and the "desk" was very small. I had to keep most of my stuff in my suitcase. So, OK for this time but I'll try to find something with a bit of a larger room for my next stay in Barcelona.

The room was clean and quiet, a bit small but we expected that in a big city. The bed was comfortable, air conditioning was excellent. Breakfast was excellent with a large selection for our two night stay. Our only complaint was the bathroom had partially frosted glass walls that cause the light to shine through at night when the bathroom lights were on.

Room clean and very nice, but a bit crowded for 2 people. No place for suitcases, without stepping over them.

stanze piccole, mobili e cassetti inesistenti, 10 piani e un solo ascensore funzionante

Plush hotel, extremely convenient location no fuss check in/check out process. Very quiet room, super comfortable. The *only* issue was with the inconsistent water temperature in the shower. Other than that, would be happy to stay again.

Room was small compared to online photo. Hardly any room for luggage.. had to request larger room & pay 30 Euros more ? Not happy & false advertisement of the room.

I we chose this hotel, in part, because it was in proximity to Barcelona Sants train station, as we were arriving from, and then leaving to, far distances via train. As well, the hotel is only steps away from Plaza Espana, with its monumental architecture and interesting activities, as well as the metro station, which gives you easy access to the rest of Barcelona. The hotel itself is quite modern and the room was highly functional, with excellent beds, pillows, shower, etc. The buffet breakfast was amazing, very sumptuous, with quite a few options for omnivores. The breakfast terrace outdoors was a very peaceful place to start the day. The gym was OK, although could’ve used a bit more equipment, for example, heavy weights,for the serious athlete on the go. The pool is largely a cosmetic touch, although its rooftop bar is a nice area to hang out at the end of a long day exploring. The friendly and helpful staff are a nice finishing touch. Overall, highly recommended.

Front desk staff burdened with inefficient check-in process…resulted in huge line blocking the lobby. Data required in form is already available in reservation and passport - but is still required to be written in the form. Front desk staff also uninformed with gas station location information.

The night we checked in a gentleman that checked us in had a personality and was very inviting. Everyone else that I talked to at the front desk was absolutely made me feel like I was bothering them. They had no personality and no customer service skills.

Room was clean and spacious, and the hotel is in a great location - loads of food options on the roof of Arenas de Barcelona next door. The only reason I didn't give full marks was check-in: I checked in online so it should have been a quick process to get the key. I still had to wait 25 minutes before I could get to my room, depite there only being two peopl ein front of me in the queue. Totally unacceptable and it ruined my plans for the first night.

Second time staying at this hotel and have enjoyed it! The rooms are nice, comfortable and have nice toiletry and coffee items. The staff as last time were phenomenal. Specifically Meri’s customer service, and great attitude made our trip that much better. Would definitely stay here again when coming back to Barcelona!! Also it is close to public transportation and shopping.

It was when we checked in. The staff was wonderful, and accommodating to us.

The location, hotel quality, breakfast and service were all outstanding. Will definitely stay again

Whilst the images look great. It was unfortunately a let down. We turned up late in the evening, the gentleman who checked us in was so disinterested borderline aggressive. We waited several minutes before he decided to acknowledge us. Despite checking in online as per their email request he told us we had no booking which caused us concern. We reassured we did but he reluctantly checked us in. Sure enough he put us on the first floor right next to a lift with twin beds. We had the worst three nights sleep we could imagine not just because of the noise but also how uncomfortable the rooms were. Not ones to complain we stayed quiet but we don’t accept this is acceptable behaviour or a way to treat decent customers. It’s pointless calling us guests when you have staff who are allowed to treat paying customers this way. Aside from that whilst it’s a newish hotel I’d say the room is an average 2 star like a travelodge. Cleanliness/room service wasn’t the best and location whilst next to the metro is quite far from the attractions. With hindsight I’d never go anywhere near this place. For the cost, we felt we had been overcharged considerably. Shame as we have stayed at Barcelo hotels before and they’ve been fine. Being a gold member was pointless here too. The only plus was the guy who checked us out was extremely polite and sincere. We appreciated the kind service he provided

Langsom tjek ind. Rent og moderne værelse. Lidt småt. Venlig personale.

Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience. Due to unexpected strikes in France, we missed our flight from the UK to Barcelona. We immediately contacted the hotel to explain the situation and asked if we could rearrange or modify our booking. Despite the circumstances being completely out of our control, the hotel was unwilling to offer any flexibility, cancellation, or even a partial credit. As a result, we suffered a significant financial loss with no option to recover or reschedule our stay. We understand it wasn’t their fault that our travel plans were disrupted, but we were hoping for at least some understanding or assistance. Sadly, the lack of empathy and unwillingness to help left a very poor impression.

Sentral beliggenhet ved Nasjonalmuseet og metro stasjon, så det var enkelt å bevege seg rundt i Barcelona. Ca 25 minutter med rutebuss til stranda og ca 20 minutter buss fra flyplassen. Badebassenget på toppen er åpent gjennom hele året fikk jeg beskjed om da vi var på besøk i oktober, men det er bittelite, ca 1 meter dypt og ikke oppvarmet. Ansatte i resepsjonen virker generelt litt arrogante og kalde. Renholdet var bra.

Great location and clean stay. Was in walking distance to a lot of places. Would stay again.

Awesome location. Great views and access to all the sites. First Aerobus stop from airport. Clean and comfortable. Great roof top pool. Mustafas across the road is amazing for food! Overall excellent place to stay and explore the city.

Modern welcoming hotel in central area very close to metro and other transport ( easy access to Sants main station) Friendly efficient receptionists. Spacious well appointed quiet rooms. Good breakfasts. Value for money.

Great stay. Wonderful breakfast and centrally located

Spotless room, great shower, friendly staff and right in the heart of Barcelona, 20 minute walk to La Rambla and Port Vell with immediate access to the metro! Would definitely recommend staying here!

Lager war super, nur ein paar Meter von der Metro und von einem Einkaufscenter. Hotel sehr stylisch und sauber, sehr gute Betten. Frühstück war sehr gut und appetitlich. Lediglich der Wasserdruck in der Dusche hätte besser sein können.

Good hotel, very clean and convenient location, 1 hour walk to Sagrada Família and 1 hour walk to the beach. Lots of coffee shops, restaurants and bakeries around.

Great location just off Placa España, easy for the airport bus. Room nice and comfy and clean with complimentary hair and hand wash. We use this hotel every time we visit Barcelona and will do so in the future.

Great location, very close to Metro and buses. Nice room, very clean and nicely decorated. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast.

Nice hotel in a great location.

Petit dejeuner tres bien fourni, un peu cher toutefois. La piscine assez decevànte. Mis en valeur en photo mais pas du tout celle attendue.

Great stay. Wonderful breakfast and centrally located

Nice enough, great shower! Roof very disappointing, breakfast not much variety or quality. Right price and location for us.

I was there for vacation/ tourism. I needed a place for breakfast and rest after my sight seeing and shopping. They have a nice lobby and eating area. I had a good accommodation that was kept clean and tidy. Their breakfast buffet was good. Their pool area look nice but their pool was like a big bathtub. Their bar/lounge looked nice. I didn't use their gym (can't comment). Their staff were nice. Public transportations (train, bus) are minutes away.

A great hotel at an excellent location - absolutely recommended. Next to two subways, direct Ai/A2 airport transfer, bus 42 also directly taking to th lee airport with normal bus ticket. Night buses also stop - good for evening as well. Hotel is very clean, room is easy to cool down, aircon js smooth and not noisy. Bed is excellent to sleep. Breakfast is average, check in is very slow.

We only stayed one night, but enjoyed the rooftop pool, the breakfast, & the helpful staff. Took a long walk around in the evening and felt completely safe.

The location, hotel quality, breakfast and service were all outstanding. Will definitely stay again

Great location, very close to Metro and buses. Nice room, very clean and nicely decorated. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfast.

Helpful friendly staff. Excellent free breakfast.

Great hotel in good location to get to all the sightseeing and stiges very easily and quickly. The breakfast is very very basic for the €18 i would grab breakfast elsewhere if possible. Receptionist very polite and helpful i would say breakfast staff need to try and be a little more friendly as the mood at breakfast is a little dull.
