Hospes Palau de la Mar
Eixample, Valencia, Spain
Hospes Palau de la Mar brings a contemporary sensibility to adjoining nineteenth-century buildings near the historic centre. Courtyards temper the urban setting, and the Bodyna spa gives sightseeing days a softer landing. The appeal is understated rather than theatrical: clean interiors, a manageable scale and a position useful for both the older city and Eixample. It suits a couple who want a proper hotel retreat without making the waterfront their base.
