HOTEL MIRAMAR VALENCIA, Valencia

The hotel sits on the beachfront promenade, surrounded by dozens of restaurants, bars, and cafés within a 5-minute walk. The nearby Marina Real and the port area are within a few minutes' walk. For city access, bus lines 19 and 32, metro line 5, and a tram stop are all within a 5-minute walk. The city centre (e.g., Plaza del Ayuntamiento, Cathedral) is about 30 minutes by bus or tram. The train station (Estació del Nord) is in the city centre - no direct pickup is offered, but the hotel can arrange a paid airport shuttle upon request. Free street parking is available on surrounding streets, but spaces fill quickly; the hotel's reserved spaces at Parking Neptuno are a reliable option.

Room types include single, double/twin, and suites (some with separate living area and kitchenette). Standard rooms have a queen-size bed and a walk-in shower; sea-view rooms include a bathtub. Rooms are generally small - some travellers find them tight for two people with luggage. The property is older and basic in feel, but has been recently modernised with fresh decor. Noise from street-level clubs and nearby beach bars can be very loud at night, especially in rooms facing the road or the restaurant; sea-view rooms are quieter. Some rooms have carpeted floors, which can show wear. Air conditioning is effective and easy to control. Tea and coffee-making facilities are provided in all rooms. Daily housekeeping is included.

Breakfast is priced at €14 per person and offers a continental selection served at the Sabbia restaurant on the beachfront. The breakfast menu is à la carte and includes items like bread, pastries, fruit, yoghurt, and hot drinks - with additional charges for certain items such as smoked salmon or Iberian ham. Dinner at Sabbia features Mediterranean dishes and cocktails, with a bar open throughout the day. A 10% discount is offered to hotel guests at the restaurant. The surrounding area has over 40 dining options within a 5-minute walk, including tapas bars, seafood restaurants, and cafés. The hotel also has a snack bar and coffee shop on site.

Wellness facilities are limited: a free solarium (though currently closed), sun umbrellas, and a free public bath. Beach access is direct, with the beach bathing season running from April to October (peak heat June-September). The hotel does not have a swimming pool. Activities available for an additional fee include bicycle rental, bike tours, yoga classes, windsurfing, and themed dinner nights. Live music and DJ performances are held nearby but can contribute to noise. The rooftop terrace (formerly a sun terrace) is closed indefinitely.

The hotel offers free WiFi in all areas, a 24-hour front desk with concierge service, and a tour desk. Luggage storage is available free of charge - staff will hold bags before check-in or after check-out. Daily housekeeping is included; laundry service is available for an additional fee. The property has a lift, air conditioning throughout, and key-card access with 24-hour security and CCTV. Business facilities include free fax/photocopying. A paid airport shuttle can be arranged after booking - airport drop-off and pick-up are both available at an additional charge.
