Sometimes it's just nice to be in a newer, comfortable and spacious hotel room even though it's not right in the middle of the historic part of town. We went to Valencia for one day to attend the concert that my son's choral group was singing at in the heart of the Valencia City Centre. It just so happened that March 17, 2015 fell right in the middle of Valencia's annual Las Fallas celebration, so that was a bit crazy. Every March the city stages one of Spain's most spectacular fiestas, Las Fallas, in which giant papier-mâché sculptures are burned in the streets and fireworks are set off. It is a little bizarre because they were shooting off fireworks in the middle of the day and the streets were jam packed with people. I really felt like a sardine in a can and got a little claustrophobic, but it was fun. We were so glad our hotel, Melia Palacio de Congresos, was far away from the action because fireworks were going off all day and into the night. The traffic was crazy too and I was thankful I didn't have to drive myself around town. We stayed on the 23rd floor overlooking the big fountain in front. I wish we would have been on the eastside of the building because we would have had a view of the ocean. If you ever book a room try to get one on the higher floors on the eastside. The room was spacious, the bed was amazingly comfortable and the bathroom was huge. They also had a good breakfast and lounge. I'd definitely stay in the hotel again if I was in Valencia and I would highly recommend it.
I stayed at Meliá Valencia for one night and had a great experience. The room was clean, spacious, and located on the 22nd floor, with fantastic views over the city. The hotel has a swimming pool. It's not very large, but it's still a great amenity, especially during the warmer months. There's also a cocktail bar that stays open until 2:00 am, which is perfect if you want to relax after a day of sightseeing or work. The restaurant deserves a special mention. The food both looked and tasted like fine dining, and the overall quality exceeded my expectations. Expect to pay around €100 for lunch for two without alcohol. Parking at the hotel costs €28 per day, but if you don't mind walking a few minutes, it's usually possible to find free street parking nearby. Meliá is one of Spain's largest hotel chains, with properties across the world, including countries such as China and Tanzania. Their mobile app makes booking and payments very easy, and it's clear they're building their own travel ecosystem. If you value consistent quality and predictable service, it's worth checking the Meliá app instead of relying only on booking aggregators. In my experience, prices are often competitive, even though the chain tends to advertise mainly its more expensive room categories on sites like Booking.com. Overall, an excellent stay and an easy five-star rating. I would happily stay here again. My only complaint? After we stayed here, my wife got completely hooked on the Meliá app and now refuses to stay anywhere outside the Meliá chain. read more
Let me start by saying this: If this hotel is within your price range, please DO stay here.... If it is not, I totally understand. I'm not trying to flex on you, I'm just stating the facts. It is on the high end of the price spectrum...for the area, but not by much. This was my first time staying at this brand. Place looks great and super fancy. Very impressive! Everyone is amazingly friendly and welcoming! Rooms are awesome! Cleaned and spacious. Food is great! Had a Club sandwich and was amazed at its architecture and construction. It had chicken and corn added. Hey, it was delicious!!! Sorry not picture... I was hungry. I had other meals for which I'll post some picture of. Beers were fresh and conversation with host bar tender was excellent. Overall, this place is excellent! Again, if it is in your prince range, I recommend it. read more

Very nice rooms, friendly staff, and great variety for breakfast! It's close enough to walk to downtown and down the street from some restaurants. The conference center is across the street so it's very convenient. read more
