Casa Del Patriarca — Hotel in Valencia

First things first, cleanliness, which must be top priority for any hotel, was in order here. The room was starting to show signs of ware but not bad and everything worked. The hotel has no elevator so unless you are prepared to walk up to the top floor (4th) either demand a lower floor or choose somewhere else. I was in room 108 (room with balcony over entrance to Cafe Bombay on the ground floor) so had no issue even though I am no longer as fleet of foot as I used to be.||The room had an odd almost triangular shape and was small in fact smaller than I think it looks in photos. The bathroom was therefore also quit small. If you need a proper work station you should pick another room type or a different hotel. Also, the bed I had was lumpy and not super comfortable but okay. ||My opinion is very much affected by the price I paid. For two nights the cost was € 162. I think that is quite reasonable for a room, albeit a single room but with a balcony as mentioned and a nice street view, in the center of a major city in Europe. You are just 500 meters from what was the ancient center of Valencia and some of the cities most significant tourist attractions. The hotel is in an old beautiful building nicely restored in a very nice neighborhood close to both larger streets and shopping and smaller narrow steers with a lot of old world charm. Taken all together I think this hotel is better than average or one...

This hotel is in a perfect location for a city break. 5 mins into the old town or the more modern shopping area. Easy walking to all the major attractions and 25 mins to the beach via Colon Metro. There are cafes all around to breakfast including one attached to the hotel. ||Rooms are very basic but high quality. Bed comfortable, shower big and strong, Wi-Fi reliable, cleaned every day. People have noted noise issue. We didn’t really experience this, but could see if you had wrong neighbours this could be the case.||Decor was really clean and the air on is amazing and silent. Probably best I have had in a hotel. Note there is no lift but stairs are safe and well lit. Out of hours check in was also very simple. ||Tips||If you need dark to sleep bring eye masks! Each room has ridiculously bright green fire escape lights in ceilings. I’m sure this is regulation but they were so bright I could read by them.|There is no bottled water in room or on site (could do with vending machine in foyer) so get some.|There are no tea or coffee facilities or fridge in rooms.|There is no safe and the hotel actively tells you not to keep valuables in room.|Sockets are Europe only no USBs so you will need adaptors.|Stay in old town and go to beach not other way around.||It’s a good 3 star hotel. Personally, now we’ve fallen in love with Valencia we might go...

Horrible A/C but great location, shower HOT water does not work right. It is close to everything and 5 minutes from Metro LINE 5 will take you and bring you back from airport.||The location of the hotel is nice. Do not eat in BOMBAY food is not good. You can always look for breakfast in LA NAU next to the fountain to the left side. Great breakfast and customer service.||Great places to eat around, just keep in mind DINNER is at 8pm in many restaurants.||My room was 102 in first floor.||Owners brought me a fan after the 4th night (I slept 2 nights with A/C HOT, then left one night to Barcelona, hotel was great, then came back and we slept another HOT night, then the rest of the nights with a fan, after I requested it.||I would like to add that the girl at the from desk was very nice in our arrival, then after that, only "hola" with an attitude, but is ok, I didn't pay any attention. after all the city and location was lovely. BUT NEVER...
