Campo Olivar

The pool area is a lovely place to relax, and the chill-out music beside it is just right. Staff were really friendly and helpful, and the service was great. The location is very convenient, with a great price for what you get. Rooms are on the small and basic side, but they’re well equipped and very clean.

There’s a big shopping center just one block away, with food shops and plenty of restaurants, including a Chinese all-you-can-eat place. You can also barbecue beside the pool. It’s a quiet two-story place with a pool and private parking. The room was a good size, newly renovated, and had a modern bathroom with a shower. Carlos, the owner, and his team were very attentive, and the receptionist was friendly. Really good value for the price.

There are dozens of restaurants and other places to eat and shop across the road at Heron City. Hotel Vista Al Sol is also handy for the airport, car rental centers, and the road network, northwest of Valencia in a smart, well-to-do part of the city. It’s a lovely small boutique hotel with attentive, helpful staff. The rooms are compact, but clean and modern, and make a good base for exploring Valencia. I’d happily recommend it for a stopover.

We stayed here with my son during Las Fallas week and, since we had a rental car, the location worked well for us. It’s a quiet, pleasant hotel just outside Valencia. The rooms are small but comfortable and extremely clean, which suited our short stay. A few hooks on the wall for coats and jackets would be useful.
