Hotel Melia Valencia is an excellent choice for business travelers looking for a modern hotel with easy access to the Valencia convention center. It attracts many people attending conferences and also caters to business travelers with several large event spaces. The property also features a restaurant and large wellness center. Its location in Ayuntamiento, one of Valencia's central squares, also makes it a suitable choice for leisure travelers looking for a hotel within a short distance of the the historic old town, the cathedral, and shopping centers. However, some tourists may find the neighborhood too quiet and too far from the city center. The property has 303 clean, larger-than-average guest rooms, some of which have balconies. However, potential guests should take note that not all rooms have regular overhead showerheads; many feature bathtubs with handheld showerheads only.

Scene
An all-business vibe with many guests coming and going to meetings and conventions
The exterior of the Hotel Melia Valencia is impressive, both for its size and modernity. Guests enter an enormous lobby where it's typical to see groups of business travelers in town for meetings and conventions, coming and going or gathering for quick meetings. The decor is very modern (picture light wood and marble with pops of color). There is a mosaic in shades of blue behind the reception desk and light purple chairs set up around small round tables by the floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the lobby with light. The long check-in desk, which is staffed by several workers at a time, stays true to the all-business vibe of the hotel.
Location
In a quiet but emerging neighborhood of Valencia, with easy access to the convention center.
While the location of this hotel next to the convention center is most appealing to business travelers attending conferences and meetings nearby, its close proximity to multiple public transport options makes it easy to explore other areas of Valencia as well, which may be appealing to leisure travelers. The area around the hotel is still being built up. As such, there's little in the way of shopping or dining in the area immediately surrounding the hotel, though it is possible to find restaurants and stores within walking distance.
Rooms
Modern, spacious, and quiet
Given the large size of the hotel, a traveler might expect to hear noise coming from the hallways or other rooms, but that's not the case at Hotel Melia Valencia, where the 303 rooms manage to stay quiet. That tranquility (plus the comfortable beds) makes for a good night's sleep. Rooms are clean, modern, and larger than average. They feature crisp white linens, neutral-colored walls, and seating areas that double as work spaces (even in the standard-sized rooms). You can pick between a king bed or two singles and order a pillow from hotel's pillow menu. Bathrooms are marble, modern, and large. However, instead of standard overhead showerheads, there are hand-held showerheads (a pro for some). Rooms feature flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and large windows. Some have balconies.
Features
Virtually all the amenities a traveler on business needs, including a wellness center and on-site parking -- but they come at a cost.
Hotel Melia Valencia offers business-friendly amenities, such as parking and a buffet breakfast, but they come with a fee. The property also features a 24-hour gym for those looking to squeeze in a workout whenever they have a few minutes and a spa for those who have more downtime. There's also a restaurant that serves Mediterranean cuisine.
