Hotel Petit Palace Bristol

Valencia

Hotel Petit Palace Bristol is located in a beautiful 19th century building. Fabulous combination of many traditional, original features and contemporary style and technology. As you enter the hotel, you will find yourself in a simply stunning lobby where you will be given the key to one of the 43 rooms at the friendly reception desk.
The rooms have been decorated in a simple, clean style and are equipped with generous king-size beds. And while you take advantage of the massage shower in the lovely bathroom, your travel companion can check his/her mails using the laptop which comes with every room and which is free to use, very handy indeed.
If after your sightseeing exploits around the city, you still feel quite energetic or if you like to start the day by doing some exercise, just hop on the exercise bike that is available in every high-tech room!
An added advantage of this hotel is that it has 10 family rooms, accommodating up to 3 to 4 people.
This beautiful hotel is situated in the heart of the historic city centre. You can literally start exploring the city as soon as you set foot outside of the hotel! And it will be more than worth your while to do so as this is a fabulous part of a city which is steadily growing in popularity and rightly so!
Also within walking distance are the shops with all the big designer labels where you can spend a nice afternoon shopping at your leisure.
If you are lucky, you may be able to get hold of one the (few) free bikes at the hotel. However, these cannot be booked in advance. Also, a quick visit to the bicycle repair shop for some basic maintenance is not a bad idea. Still, you should not look a gift horse in the mouth, it is after all a nice thought.
There is no restaurant at the hotel but they do serve an excellent breakfast. However, the hotel's central location means that you never have to go very far for a nice meal. You are literally surrounded by a great variety of many lovely restaurants. And of course, the hotel staff are only too happy to recommend some nice places to you.
The hotel's superb location in a lively and charming area and the fact that it offers a few nice little extras makes this hotel better than average and partly because of this, we feel that the price-quality ratio is excellently balanced!

Cons:
• The rooms are not overly big but big enough, don't forget that king-size beds take up a fair amount of room

Pros:
• Exquisite building, tastefully renovated
• Very central location in a lively, charming area
• Tastefully decorated
• A number of original extras available at the hotel
• Option of family rooms, accommodating up to 4 people

Valencia
How could you not enjoy spending time in a city which has more than 300 days of sunshine a year?

The old city centre is fairly compact, a walk around the city will take you along all of the places of interest Valencia has to offer.
From the Catedral de Santa Mará at the Plaza de la Reina, where you can climb the Micalet for a wonderful view of the city, along many other churches and buildings: Real Basílica de Nuestra Señora de los Desamparados, Palau de la Generalitat (buildings of parliament), Iglesia de San Nicolás (old church), Lonja de la Seda (the Silk Exchange), Iglesia de San Martín, Museo Nacional de Cerámica ´González Marti´(ceramic art museum), Real Colegio del Patriarca (renaissance palace) and the Almudin (old grain depot).
There are also plenty of museums to visit, including the Museo de Historia de Valencia and the Museo de Bellas Artas (museum of fine arts).

Make sure that you do not miss out on the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias. This huge imposing and futuristic complex houses the Hemisfèric (IMAX theatre), Museo de las Ciencas Principe Felipe (interactive science museum), Oceanogràfic (with plenty of aquariums and the longest underwater tunnel in Europe (70 metres long)) and the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofía (big theatre).

And if you have had enough of looking at buildings and walking around the city, you can chill out in one of the many parks dotted around Valencia, the Jardines del Turia or the Jardines del Real.
Or perhaps you fancy taking a nice look around the first botanic garden of Spain, the Jardín Botánico.

Valencia, just like Barcelona, offers that great combination of city and beach: hop on the underground and within 10 minutes, you will have reached the long beach of Playa de la Malvarrosa.
There really is more to Valencia than its paella culture, it is also a very trendy city with a fantastic nightlife.
And if you want to learn Spanish or wish to take dance classes, there are plenty of options available to you here, plus you will also get to know a lot of new people along the way. Bonus!

Active
Take a walk around the city or explore Valencia by bicycle.

Family
A visit to the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias, where you can find the science museum, the Oceanogràfic and the Hemisfèric, is highly recommended!
The Oceanogràfic is home to over 45,000 aquatic animals. At the science museum, there are plenty of experiments for everyone to get stuck into and the Hemisfèric shows films for all ages on a huge screen which really gives you a sense of being right in the middle of the action.
And let's not forget the beach, always great for a fun time!
Other nice places to take the children are the gardens, the Jardines del Real with a road safety training park, and the Jardín Botánico. Or you could climb 'Gulliver' in the Jardines del Turia.
