The Region of Murcia has very different landscapes ranging from dry and irrigated land to plains and mountainous areas, vineyards and plateaus. Its capital, in the center of the Segura river valley, still preserves remains of the wall that surrounded it. The saying says that it is beautiful and it is not wrong: Occidental Hotels & Resorts in Murcia offers the possibility of verifying the history, nature and tranquility in the heart of Murcia.

The best way to get to know the Murcian capital is on foot, quietly and comfortably. Walk through its main streets -the Platería and the Trapería-, its open-air markets, and its squares, such as Cardenal Belluga, which houses the Cathedral of Santa María, the Episcopal Palace and the Moneo Building. You cannot miss the cathedral, its museum, the Vélez Chapel and the Junterón Chapel, its Baroque façade and the views from the tower. Symbols of the city, as is the philosophy of Occidental Hotels & Resorts in Murcia: good service, quality and good life extend throughout the region. 

If you want to admire a true Mediterranean sunset, follow your path along the Paseo del Malecón. And if what you are looking for is a privileged panoramic view of the city and Vega del Segura, go up to Quitapesares. The view is even more special at night.

Visiting Murcia in spring is the easiest way to get to know the most traditional facet of this modern city, through its Bando de la Huerta and Burial of the Sardine festivities. But at any time of the year, tasting its gastronomy is savoring the garden: Murcian salad, rice with beans, zarangollo, ratatouille... The guests of Occidental Hotels & Resorts in Murcia never leave without trying their typical tapas: marriages, sailors or the paparajotes. 

Choose the perfect host to visit a destination of rural tradition, avant-garde and leisure that meets at the hotels in Murcia of the Barceló Hotel Group.
