Excellent

Breakfast was good and location was excellent. Room was a little tired, the shower leaked, the TV internet didnt work and the airconn was very weak so we had to leave the windows open at night.
Room was cleaned daily to a high standard. Complimentary toothbrush, toothpaste, robes, slippers, toiletries etc. Nespresso machine and milks. Water replenished daily. As always a fantastic stay and lovely welcoming staff.
Staff were very welcoming and accommodating. The hotel was clean and is also in a great location for exploring. The only drawbacks are that the air conditioning is not switched on in winter, when it’s 23 degrees Celsius in February this is not acceptable as my room was boiling. The front desk were very helpful and switched my room to another on the other side of the building. This room was much cooler although the street noise was loud until the early hours.
All good xx loved the hotel and good location
Only complaint was no kettle in room although had free tea and coffee in reception

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Room very small tight to wall on each side..
Our room looked onto another building which made the room dark most of the time.
Didn't have breakfast as plenty of cafes near buy.
The best thing about the hotel is the location.
Lovey hotel within walking distance of the old town, the port and rail and bus stations. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Delicious varied continental breakfast with complimentary coffee daily. We definitely will be back to the Occidental Alicante.
This hotel is nice and centrally located for sightseeing and restaurants. Nice breakfast but a little pricey, but it gets the day off to a good start. Clean tidy, don’t expect a view.

Yes, but they joint two singles beds together that I didn't like
Good central location near a huge variety of bars and restaurants. Helpful reception staff. Good cleaning and towel change. Coffee machine in lobby for limited hours was good but would have preferred a kettle in the room.
Second visit and exactly as it says on the tin. Perfect location in CC near all amenities professional friendly staff could fault a thing thank you well done
