1. Valencia Luxury - Boutique Redonda

Valencia Luxury - Boutique Redonda
3.0 star property
Valencia City Centre
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (77 reviews)
"Great location over looking the rotunda and close to many shops, bars and restaurants. The apartment was spacious and had a drip coffee maker (bring your favourite coffee as we bought some that was sub standard), washing machine and was well equipped. It’s close to the Cathedral so you can hear the bells every morning at 8:00 and other times during the day. There is also some street noise from the near by bars, but it wasn’t too loud so that we couldn’t sleep. The beds were very comfortable....
