A nine-story building on the outskirts of the old city, the Hotel Dimar is a contemporary, upscale hotel at a reasonable price. Those wanting an authentic Valenican experience will find the hotel is well-situated in a residential neighborhood with cafes, bars, and shops frequented by locals. Bicycles provided by the hotel make it easy for guests to take in the rhythm of the city. Renovated in 2009, the entire property gives off an air of modernity and openness. A delicious free breakfast includes hot and cold items, and there's even a Nespresso machine. Rooms are somewhat trendy, with minimalist furnishings, and some have balconies; some facing the street can be noisy.

The 58-room Hotel Sorolla Centro is simple and lovely -- and perfectly located for visitors to Valencia, whether they are in the city for business or for sightseeing. One block from the hotel is City Hall and a block in the other direction is the bull ring. Nearby streets are pedestrian-only, and the hotel is surrounded by shops, restaurants, and cafes that offer an authentic look at local life and culture.

The 239-room SH Valencia Palace Hotel is a three-and-a-half-pearl property just across the road from the Jardines del Turia, one of Spain's largest urban parks. Pleasant rooms offer flat-screen TVs and pillow menus, though most have at least some dated decor. There's a daily breakfast buffet for a fee, regional fare for lunch and dinner, a nice outdoor terrace dining, and a snack bar as well. The outdoor pool area is small, but open year-round, and the spa offers a wide variety of treatments. There's also a sharp fitness center with a good selection of modern equipment. While this hotel is fine enough, for something a little more thoroughly modern, the ILUNION Aqua 4 is a bit cheaper, though it's farther from the city center.

While the upper-middle-range NH Valencia Center is technically in the center of the city, few of the main tourist sights are within walking distance, but the main bus station and a metro stop are nearby. Its 192 rooms show a design flair, with sharp-edged, dark-wood furniture and pale walls. They include minibars, safes, and free Wi-Fi. But the rest of the property, built in 1996, has begun to show its age. The hotel has a fitness center with weight and cardio machines, and a rooftop pool with lounge chairs and views of the skyline. There's also a business center and seven function rooms. Travelers interested in staying in the newer section of Valencia should check out the Tryp Oceanic Valencia, which has comparable amenities and rates.

The two-pearl Hotel Adhoc Carmen is modest but charming, set on a pretty cobbled alleyway in the heart of Valencia’s historic center, just a five-minute walk from the city’s cathedral and the Jardines del Turia. The 21 rooms are simply outfitted and appointed, but they're brightly painted, clean, and have flat-screen TVs and modern showers. The reception area has work by local artists on display, which contrast with the historic architecture. There's little in the way of communal areas, and the hotel lacks a restaurant. Although guests can get a discounted breakfast at a nearby cafe. Affordable rates and central setting make this is a good pick for travelers, but travelers looking for a pool and breakfast might prefer the Vincci Mercat Hotel.

Hotel Kramer is a chic three-pearl hotel with budget rates, since it's located outside of Valencia's city center. Still, it's in a walkable neighborhood and directly next to the Turia metro station. Seventy updated rooms present an almost industrial look and have flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and mini-fridges. Extras include a simple breakfast (that’s free with direct booking from the hotel), trendy tapas restaurant, and cozy reading room. The biggest downside is noise between rooms. It's worth comparing prices at the nearby NH Valencia Center, which has a rooftop pool, gym, and business facilities for not much more money.

One of Hotel Zenit Valencia's biggest assets is its location across the street from the beautiful Estacio del Nord. The three-and-a-half-pearl boutique property's common spaces are attractive and on-trend, although decor in its 67 guest rooms is more contemporary, with a chain hotel aesthetic. All units have AC, minibars, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, but they lack coffeemakers or kettles, and some rooms are a bit small. Hotel features include a solid breakfast buffet with hot items for a fee, plus a Mediterranean restaurant, a bar, and a fitness center with a sauna. Travelers looking for a quieter location, rooms that are more luxurious, and an indoor pool might consider The Westin Valencia Hotel, but rates are significantly higher.

Located in a mall on one of Valencia's main thoroughfares, the sleekly modern three-pearl Hotel Alameda Plaza (previously the Holiday Inn Valencia) sits opposite the City of Arts and Sciences, and is about a five-minute drive to the port and a 15-minute drive to town. It packs in some nice amenities, including a gym, the Mezzo Mezzo restaurant, meeting rooms, and a small rooftop pool with city views from the surrounding terrace. The 200 guest rooms are spacious, and have flat-screen TVs, minibars, and kettles, but they've begun to show some wear and tear. With the mid-2016 shift from Holiday Inn ownership, the property still has some kinks to work out, especially regarding service, according to some guests. Travelers could also check out the Hotel Conqueridor, which is closer to the city center but has slightly higher rates.

For those looking for a modern hotel in central Valencia that delivers the basics, the three-pearl Catalonia Excelsior is a solid choice. It offers a varied breakfast buffet (not included in rates), limited room service, and a small gym. The 84 rooms vary in decor from homey to sleek, but all have top-notch amenities like flat-screen TVs, minibars, kettles, and marble bathrooms, although parts of the hotel show a bit of age. Past guests have complained about noise issues between the rooms. Myr Plaza Mercado & Spa, with a restaurant, spa, and rooms with kitchenettes, is a good -- if somewhat pricier -- alternative.

Hotel Conqueridor is an upper-middle-range property with decor and services that are a step up from the more basic chain hotels in the same price range. Breakfast isn't included with the price of a room, but "C" Restaurant serves tasty a la carte Mediterranean cuisine and Lobby-Bar has snacks and drinks for sale. The small fitness center has a free sauna for guest use as well. The location is ideal for those who want to explore the city of Valencia, though it may be worth comparing rates at the similarly-priced Ayre Hotel Astoria Palace, especially for those who want to be closer to high-end shops.
