“Occidental 1929's transit-handy, cold service”
Occidental Barcelona 1929 is a well-located hotel under a hundred metres from Plaza España and the metro — the A1/A2 airport buses stop nearby, L1/L3 reach the sights, a rooftop mini-pool and small open-air bar (a free cocktail voucher included), a rich breakfast, clean rooms with a kettle and day-one bottled water (then a gym dispenser for refills), and the area felt safer than feared. Two serious complaints: the front desk ignored arriving guests and stayed unsmiling for days — one guest's room still held the previous guest's leftover cake, and the absent manager only left a note with work hours; plus wobbly sliding bathroom doors, an ancient hairdryer, weak water pressure and guarded lobby water.
