We booked this trip whilst the hotel was still being built, so you’re always a little bit worried about completion and subsequent opening issues, whether it be staff training or general snagging? So it has been delightful to arrive and find that it has lived up to its full potential. The rooms, whilst not huge, have been well appointed and have made great use of the space allowed within an existing footprint. The room is full on nice touches, from the complimentary Panama hats and tote bags, or the lovely array of toiletries and options for room scents or pillow choices, it more than makes up for the lack of square footage. The fact that the rooms all appear to be identical in size and layout, means that there is no room envy between guests. The pool area is exceptional and well organised, with nice sunbeds and decent beach towels for the patrons. There are five Cabana style beds which come with a charge, which appear underutilised, so may need reconsidered, but there are plenty of comfortable sun loungers which have good turnover and the pool attendant ensures that no-one is allowed to hog the beds whilst not being present. This is appreciated and seems to be well received by most guests. The food and drink offering is of a high standard and is not unreasonably priced. The rooftop bar is an extremely comfortable area to relax and enjoy the sunsets over Valencia. A nice mix of drinks and again, reasonably priced by comparison to similar Mediterranean hotels. The breakfast offering is spectacular with a vast range of fresh ingredients as well as cooked breakfast items, all delivered by a cheerful and well organised team. Whilst it in no way detracts from my 5/5 review, I would suggest that the only area of the breakfast service that needs attention, is the self-service coffee machines, which seem to create a bottleneck at almost every breakfast service? The machines would be much improved if they were plumbed into a constant water source, rather than the inadequate internal water tanks, which constantly need refilled. Also, the milk which serves the machines should be in 10L containers rather than individual 1L cartons, once again creating delays while replaced. If that’s my only issue, and it is, then you can see why my review remains at 5/5. From the reception team to the housekeepers and maintenance operatives, they were all outstanding. We still have another 2 nights of our stay to go, but I felt compelled to write this in advance of checking out, after reading a few ridiculous and unfounded 1/5 reviews from previous guests. I do wish that those who wish to write such ridiculous reviews would at least produce some evidence or have some legitimate substance to them, rather than just be a petty rant? We’ve loved our stay in Room 114, and we’ll DEFINITELY be returning. Come and see for yourself. You won’t be disappointed!
