Carcaixent Holidays from £239

This is the best place to stay while in Valencia. We were very pleased with everything. Strongly suggest to everyone!!

This is a fantastic hotel located very close to the Oceanographic, one of Valencia’s top attractions. It’s attached to a shopping centre where there is a Mercadona, a great supermarket similar to Sainsbury’s in quality/price. The shopping centre also has a decent bookstore, a Zara shop and a Lego shop where kids can play for free. Valencia is a city designed for walking. I’m in my 50s, so this was a great opportunity to do plenty of exercise just by walking around (it took us about 45 minutes to walk to the city centre from the hotel). I travelled with my partner and little one (2 years-old) and didn’t need to buy the Valencia card. The only issue with the hotel (not their fault apparently) is that the reservation was made for 1 queen bed and 1 single bed, and we’re given 3 single beds. If you’re a parent with a very young child, you know that this is impractical. We spoke to the person in reception who thought putting two beds together was the solution. Again, if you’ve ever tried to do this, then you know this is impractical because of the gap in the middle. In the end, we’re given the type of room I originally booked/paid for the next day, which was great. They could have offered a free breakfast that morning for the inconvenience, but perhaps that’s not their customer service mentality, so fair enough. Aside from this issue the first night, we had a great experience in this hotel.

Door was hard to open. Well equipped kitchen. Enjoyed our stay

I lake every ting off that hotel

This property only does contactless check in as many other properties do and you must call them. Which is fine they do not answer their phone or messages via Whatsapp or Expedia. The multiple booking reference number they provided did not work on their self check in machine and so I was stuck in the common area. Thank god there a lovely lady showed up, she might've been another guest or a cleaner. With my limited Spanish, we were able to communicate and she was able to get me checked in. I stayed here for 2 nights and they never responded to any of my messages to apologise or check that everything was ok. I wouldn't stay here again unless absolutely necessary.

The hotel is very well located, walking time to the historic downtown (~5 min). Area around the hotel is a little bit dirty, but close also to a mall (~10 min walk).
