Novotel Valencia Lavant

Novotel Valencia Lavant

10/10 Excellent
"Property was clean and the rooftop pool is great. Many hotels in Spain say they have a pool, but then the pools are the size of postage stamps. This is a good size pool based on other places I’ve stayed in Spain. Pool closes a bit early - 8pm. Staff was helpful. Hotel is a 30 minute walk from Ciutat Vella. We walked or took a cab. Cabs are plentiful and not expensive. (1There is a sewer near the entrance of hotel that gives off an awful smell, but that isn’t something the hotel can control.)"

"Fantastic location, right on the main plaza, 4 minutes from station, 3 minutes to the Central Market. The 1 person rooms are small but spotlessly clean and perfect for 2 nights. Buffet breakfast has a good selection of food all very fresh. Hotel happy to store luggage in secure room proir to checkin or after checkout. If 8d been staying longer probably would have booked a bigger room, but as I said for 2 nights it was spot on"
