Hotel Medium Conqueridor Valencia

Lovely, modern designed hotel with a good atmosphere, the rooms are spacious and stylish with comfortable beds, a flatscreen tv and a minibar. Overall the place was quit and very clean, i wouldn't call the staff friendly but they were helpfull and (what is still not a common thing in Spain), they all do speak English very well.

The reason why we would choose to stay here again on another visit is however the location that we found very convenient, when we arrived at the railway station we automatically took a cab to the hotel. The taxi's were waiting in line behind the station and after i'd showed the printed adress to the taxidriver he yelled something to his colleagues which made them burst out in laughter, we understood why when we arrived at the hotel.... 2 minutes later! ;-)

Needless to say that we decided not to go anywhere before we had studied the map (tip! i just got one for free from the tourist office which is situated in the big hall where the trains arrive) and that made us come up by the idea to go and explore everything by walk and so we did, the riverbank, the bridges, the city of arts and science, the beach, the old city centre, the harbour, its all in walking distance from the hotel and can be easily done. (i eat to much, i smoke and i love sport, really, but only to watch at, so i can tell) ;-)

And above all, you see so much more by walking than from the backseat of a cab!
