I chose this property specifically for its location, just a few minutes walk from Valencia's City of Arts and Sciences. I was not disappointed, since its location was also directly across the street from a shopping mall--handy for travel needs or a quick bite. If your main reason to visit Valencia is to see the old town without a car (45 minute walk--not recommended), then there are better and much closer options.

Rooms with one double bed (rather small, but fine for 1 person) have the advantage of facing east--with a great view of the City of Arts and Sciences buildings. Another advantage was a sofabed in the room. For 2 or more adults, I would recommend a twin room because the double bed was quite small (i.e., not queen or king size mattress).

The room itself was quite small, and there was a lack of attention to the basics (even compared to other Holiday Inn Expresses). For example, the tissue box in the bathroom was stuffed with a few paper towels, instead of tissues...and there was not enough space to work on, nor easily accessible outlets for mobiles, laptops, etc. Overall, there is a lot which can be improved in the rooms (surprising for a new hotel).

The free breakfast was good, once you figured out which coffee machine was working. Staff were very helpful.

Overall, an OK choice if you can get a low rate. (It was not good value for me, since I paid over €70).

nice location
just 7- 10 min walk from Calatrava's City of Art and Science
rooms are small, but very clean
staff is very polite

breakfast is always the same.. which can be really boring if u stay more than 3 days...
there is a very intense road nearby so, pay attention if u don't like too much noise

If you are short of time, or driving through Valencia and have Calatrava in your mind, this is a great place to do a short stop over and visit "La Ciudad de Las Ciencias". It is walking distance to the park so you can experience it both day and night, we even had a beautifull view of the bridge from our room.

The hotel has great service and it is very comfortable, the hotel has it's own parking area but it is also easy to park nearby for free. The breakfast is really good too and it was included.

I was very pleased with the hotel. The front desk staff was very helpful. The gentleman that checked us in was very nice, remembered my name on subsequent nights, and helped us with our logisitical questions.

The breakfast was simple but quite good. Quality of the offerings seemed very high. The staff even allowed us to have breakfast early prior to leaving for a morning flight.

The rooms were generally clean albeit somewhat small. The bed was quite saggy, however, and could have used an update. Otherwise, it seems as though the hotel is well maintained.

The location was good, and was close to the Science and Arts complex, easily accessible on foot. The location was not as convenient to the old city. However, a bus was nearby and taxis are cheap. A metro line is in the works... The hotel is across the street from El Saler mall, which is convenient for informal dinning options and has a Carrefour (like a Super Target) for buying snacks and such.

Hotel offers free wi-fi and there are some free terminals available as well. Also there is small pool.

The hotel was a very good value, and I would stay there again.
