What is it about Valencia that always makes you want to come back? It could be its Mediterranean light, the blue of the sea, the local life that thrives in its neighbourhoods, a historic centre full of fascinating stories, or the cuisine that has been slowly evolving for centuries. It could be one of these things or all of them at once. Either way, our hotels in Valencia make it easy to discover the city for yourself.
Around 10 kilometres south of Valencia lies the Parque Natural de la Albufera, an area of more than 21,000 hectares that brings together Spain’s largest freshwater lake, extensive rice fields where Valencian paella was born, Mediterranean woodland and beaches with natural dunes. You can explore this landscape on foot, by bike or aboard one of the traditional albuferenc boats that glide across the lagoon. We recommend saving the boat trip for sunset, when the sun begins to dip below the horizon, bathing the water in shades of red.
Every March, Las Fallas takes over Valencia. This festival, declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, is one you have to experience at least once in your life. The sound of fireworks begins on 1 March, with daily mascletàs in the Plaza del Ayuntamiento. But the key dates are 15 to 19 March, when the plantà takes place (the figures and other elements of the Fallas are set up in the city’s streets), followed by the cremà (when these sculptures made of wood and papier-mâché are set alight).
In Valencia, any time is a good time to enjoy a meal. From mid-morning, esmorzaret is served: a seriously satisfying sandwich, preceded by la picaeta (peanuts, pickles and lupin beans) and accompanied by a beer or wine mixed with soda water. To finish, there’s el cremaet: coffee with rum, sugar, cinnamon and lemon peel. At lunchtime, it’s all about Valencian paella, ideally one still cooked in a traditional farmhouse in the surrounding countryside. And for an afternoon treat, try horchata with fartons for dipping. And while you’re there, don’t miss the beautiful Mercado Central.
Valencia has excellent domestic and international connections. Valencia Airport is just 8 kilometres from the city centre, with convenient metro and bus services. There are also two railway stations: Estación Joaquín Sorolla, which runs high-speed services to Madrid, Barcelona, Córdoba and Seville, and Estación del Norte, which serves local commuter trains. By road, you can reach the city via the A-3 and AP-7. Once you’re here, you can explore the city centre on foot or use the metro, tram or urban and interurban bus network to travel further afield.
