A getaway in Valencia means encountering centuries-old traditions, flavours that have transcended the borders of this city and surprising contrasts that make it clear that modernity and tradition are completely compatible. These features are widely found in the diverse selection of hotels in Valencia. There is accommodation to meet the needs of all types of travellers, who will find culture, fun, cuisine and much more. The city has more than 30 museums, a spectacular urban beach, a nature reserve and a festive atmosphere that goes beyond the famous Fallas—and these are just some of the hallmarks of Valencia.

The capital of the Turia, a river that articulates a promenade around a vast area of gardens, is a city very well equipped for both walking and cycling. In fact, it is quite common for hotels in Valencia to provide rental services, offering their guests the opportunity to experience the city from a new perspective.

Whatever your choose, any visit to the city isn’t complete without a visit to the Carmen district, where you’ll find the remnants of the Arabic walls and the two gothic doors that once served as the access point to the city: the Torres de Serranos and the Torres de Quart. In this central neighbourhood, you’ll find other emblematic buildings such as the Lonja de la Seda (Silk Exchange), which is located in the Plaza del Mercado, the Plaza Redonda and the Mercado Central.

The historical tour continues through the Plaza de la Virgen, the historical centre of the city. Here, where the Roman forum once stood, now stands the cathedral of Valencia and its popular Miguelete bell tower. Nowadays this square is also the nerve centre of the city's most important festivities, the Fallas, and it is here that the spectacular floral offering to the Virgin takes place on the 17th and 18th of March every year. It is worth finishing the visit by going to the coast to taste the most characteristic dishes of Valencian gastronomy. The beach bars on the Malvarrosa beach are the meeting point for locals and visitors, especially on Sundays. A perfect day to enjoy a good paella by the sea.

Valencia can boast of being at the forefront of Spanish cities in terms of its investment in modernisation. For proof of this investment in culture and innovation, look no further than the colossal City of Arts and Sciences. This complex is not just a centre of knowledge and art—it’s the perfect setting to take some of the most representative photos of the city. It’s also been the backdrop for important cinematographic productions on an international scale, thanks to its unique architecture. Its buildings, along with its cultural and leisure options, reflect the smooth transformation the city has been experiencing in the last few decades.

There is a perfect harmony between development and tradition, which can be seen at any hotel next to the City of Arts and Sciences. In addition to their strategic location and excellent transport connections with the rest of the city, these hotels in Valencia have the most exclusive features in the city. Soundproofed rooms, free Wi-Fi, spectacular views of the most modern part of Valencia from a privileged terrace, swimming pool, fitness studio, room for facial and body treatments, spa circuits, and more. All of this located in a perfect location both for travellers here on business and those in Valencia for pleasure.
