Authenticity

Palacio Vallier has a rich history as a palace built in the 19th century. The hotel preserved many original features, including its elegant facade, grand entrance, and ornate ceilings. The interior beautifully blends classic and modern styles, juxtaposing contemporary decor and artwork with the building's original architectural elements. And during renovation, the hotel's owners discovered that it was built atop an ancient Roman site from the 3rd century, a historic perfumery.

Location

The building's historical past means you'll be right in the center of Valencia, a perfect base for exploring the city on foot. The hotel is directly on the Plaça de Manises, just around the corner from the Valencia Cathedral. The Central Market and Lonja de la Seda are a six-minute walk, and Plaça de la Reina is only four minutes away.

Rooms & Bathrooms
