Ilunion Valencia 4

Location was excellent close to the bus,metro and tram. Very easy to get around the town. The old town is only 2 metro stops away. Excellent value for tickets 5 euro for 10 journeys. Very safe neighbourhood. Alot of restaurants around so no need to go to the old town at night. The bars and restaurants only open until 11pm so this was a bit annoying. Our room was cleaned every day. We had tea and coffee in our room which was a huge plus. Very comfortable room.

We chose this hotel for our long city trip in Valencia, because of its breakfast, swimming pool and proximity to the Metro station and we were very satisfied. The station is two minutes walking away and you can also rent a bike two streets away. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the pool with little bar on warm days. Breakfast was absolutely outstanding and you could even sit outside!

The hotel is not too far from the airport. It took around 10 minutes in a taxi (Sunday lunchtime, so might be busier other days) & cost around 15Euros (September 2023). We arrived an hour earlier than check in time, but our room (807) was ready & we were let into it early which was amazing. Check-out was brilliant too - no issues & very helpful staff. Our flight home wasn't until the evening and we were able to leave our bags safely for the day. Although the hotel is located outside of the main tourist area, it is on major transport routes into the city. There is a metro (Benniferri) just a 2 minute walk away. Trains are frequent and take you into the main area. Buses are also excellent, with fabulous bus lanes whisking you into the city. We went for a T3 ticket for 11 Euros or so (amazing value). It's valid 72 hours & can be used on all EMT buses, metro and trams & some local trains in zone A & B (the airport is in zone C so it can't be used to travel there). One evening we got a cab back from the old town & it was around 10 Euros, so not too bad. The area around the hotel feels safe & is peaceful. The room was okay - a little dated compared to the lovely lobby area, and was a bit of a squeeze for 3 adults, but we were hardly there really, so it wasn't an issue for us. We loved all of the enviro friendly toiletries. We opted to include the price of breakfast during our stay and were so pleased we did. In our opinion it was lovely. Lots of fresh fruit, yogurts, pastries, lovely bread & coffee. The scrambled eggs are the best, just delicious, and my husband loved the bacon & tiny sausages as well as the wide selection of cheese & meat. The restaurant area is well laid out and tastefully decorated. Even at busy times it didn't seem overwhelming. We didn't use the pool in the end, even though it was the main reason for choosing the hotel. It looked clean & nicely kept though.

Hotel was beautifully modern and air conditioned, rooms were very clean and the cleaning staff were incredibly polite and hardworking. Staff were very accomodating. Views from the rooms were wonderful - black out curtains were amazing - we've never slept so well. Location was OK - very close to a supermarket and some restaurants, a little out of the way but the local transport was cheap and easy to use and the metro stop was literally outside the hotel.

Great breakfast . One side of hotel noisy if you want to open window . Staff very helpful.Valencia is a lovely city .Good gym .And great pool and spa in Building behind hotel .
