Hotel berhampiran Colonia Gatitos, Ribera Baixa

Encontré este hotelito en mi último viaje a Valencia y ya es la segunda vez que me alojo en él. Viajo por trabajo y he estado en todo tipo de hoteles, grandes, pequeños, en el centro, en las afueras, en polígonos... y en algunas ciudades si eres afortunado, encuentras un hotel a tu medida, donde te sientes cómodo, acompañado y bien atendido. Es imposible sentirse como en casa, pero se agradece que casi lo consigan. Este hotelito está en El Saler, a las afueras de Valencia, en la Albufera y cuando acabas de trabajar es lo más parecido a volver a casa. Rodeado de restaurantes donde comer y tapear para todos los gustos y bolsillos, una farmacia, una panadería con dulces artesanos muy buenos y vistas sobre un pinar que relaja y refresca y unos buenos desayunos. Pero lo mejor son las dos personas que lo regentan, Roxana y Lucía. Pura amabilidad y simpatía. Les gusta su trabajo, lo disfrutan y se encargan de transmitirlo, cosa que se agradece cuando estás lejos de casa. Te sientes cuidado y muy bien atendido. Muchas gracias a ambas y hasta la próxima.

We left our car in the free carpark next to the hotel, then entered it through a designated door to the reception area. The guy there was very efficient, friendly and helpful ! The room was very good, with a big comfy bed, a clean bathroom, TV, mini fridge, and a safe. Also no noises heard from rooms near to ours, a great plus ! All very good so far...but...! Breakfast was included in the price, and have to say was a little disappointing ! The coffee had a strange taste and there was only one choice of small bread roll for toasting (not nice either) ! Also no bananas or apples at breakfast. There was a gym and heath spa to use, but we were limited on time so couldn't try them ! Apart from the breakfast issues, the hotel was very good, and in a great location next to a commercial centre. Hopefully the breakfast disappointment was a one off, as I will stay there again when passing through Valencia again !!

Tranquilidad del apartamento y de la zona. Todo nuevo. Muy cómodo. Buena zona para aparcar por las tardes sobre todo. Está cerca de un hospital. Gemma de recepción maravillosa. Volveríamos sin dudar, de hecho ampliamos estancia 2 noches estando allí. Saludos a Gemma desde León

This is my second stay and it's a lovely hotel but nothing special. It's very clean, lively and in an amazing location as you're only a five minute walk to the beach. But unfortunately it is super busy during peak times which would be fine if rooms were more sound proof but sadly it is very noisy with people banging, slamming and shouting in corridors all night long. The size of the pool is so disappointing because it is tiny and once you have more than four or five people in there it feels very crowded and it doesn't open until 10am which is pretty late. Room service is a bit odd as they seem to come anywhere from 8am to 3pm. Most staff are good at communicating in English which I appreciate and the bar and food costs are reasonable. Balcony view is great on both sides. I'm not sure if I would come back because it is expensive for what you're getting.

I can´t even begin to say enough good things about our stay at La Galiana. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable – reception, pool bar, the restaurant . . . everyone was so attentive and seemed to love their work. The hotel itself is beautifully located at the top of a mountain, the design is perfect, attention to every small detail. Beautiful furniture, warm inviting wood and huge windows that make you feel like you are outside all the time. My room was beyond perfect with the a beautiful view of the garden, nice patio furniture on the private patio, a luxury. The bathroom was large and beautiful with both a bath tub and a shower that had an amazing water pressure and products from Rituals that I really like ! The spa was a special chapter – my massage was perfect, so was the sauna. I did not use the gym as we spent all mornings at the golf course but everything was so well organized and beautiful. The golf course is amazing – very challenging to say the least. The surroundings and the design makes this golf course unique, definitely the best I have ever played. Looking very much forward to come back to La Galiana, We noticed that they are building a new club house which will be the perfect addition to this already . . . almost perfect place. To the staff a La Galiana - you could not have done anything else to make our stay memorable. There are good hotels and well designed golf courses all over the world – it is people like you that make the difference between very good stay and perfect stay ! TAKK FYRIR OKKUR !
