Occidental Aranjuez
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Occidental Aranjuez is worth booking if you want a well-reviewed 4-star with a spa, gym and a strong buffet breakfast at a mid-range price. Skip it if a pool is the main reason for your trip, or if you mostly want the lowest rate in town.

This is a 4-star hotel with a guest score of 8.7 out of 10 from 2,453 reviews. That is a large pool of opinions for a town the size of Aranjuez, so the score is fairly reliable.
It suits couples and families who want facilities on site. The property lists a gym, a spa, a pool, a restaurant, a terrace, family rooms, air conditioning and free Wi-Fi. Breakfast is a buffet, and guests rate it highly.
Swimmers should think twice. Guests describe the pool as large and clean, but hard to reach via stairs and sometimes closed. Anyone with limited mobility should ask about access before booking.
Location and getting around
The address is Plaza de la Unesco, 2. The location score from guests is 8.1 out of 10, which is decent but the lowest of the hotel's ratings in our data.
Casa del Labrador is about 2.3 km away, roughly 29 minutes on foot. That walking time is a straight-line estimate, so the real route may take a little longer.
Other walking times have not been verified. If you plan to reach specific sights without a car, check the route on a map before you book.
What guests say
Breakfast gets the most praise. Guests mention a varied buffet with a wide choice, including vegetarian options.
The team is the second strong point. Reviews describe friendly, professional staff and a warm welcome.
The main complaint is the pool. It is described as large and clean, but difficult to access because of stairs, and at times closed. If the pool matters to you, confirm it will be open on your dates.
Price and what you get compared with our other picks
The reference price was €135.90 per night. This is a reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults, not a live quote. The sample median in Aranjuez was €127.50 per night, so this hotel sat slightly above the middle.
Our Budget pick, Hotel Equo Aranjuez, is a 3-star with a score of 8.2 at €94 per night. It costs about €42 less per night, with fewer stars and a lower score.
Our Luxury pick, NH Collection Palacio de Aranjuez, is a 4-star scoring 8.9, and its reference price was €127.50 per night. In this sample it was actually cheaper than the Occidental. Compare both for your dates, because that gap can change.
