My wife and I stayed at this hotel following 4 nights in Barcelona. We are 2 for 2 on hotels as we could not have been happier with this property.
We booked a work-out room (never again) and decided that we would rather face the beautiful courtyard. The front desk accommodated this request and were able to juggle some rooms when we decided to extend our stay, allowing us to remain in the same room.
Valencia is a great walking city and the hotel is 8-10 minutes from the main shopping district.
As other have noted, the hotel is quite close to the football stadium and we were able to take in a game. It took less than 15 minutes to get from our seats at the Mestalla to a seat at the bar.
We did not eat in the hotel but did enjoy cocktails every evening. Service in the bar was great and court-year is a great place to enjoy a drink.
I have a very limited spanish vocabulary and all the staff was able to effectively communicate in english.
It is an excellent property and I would visit again.
