    A City-Break Gem of a Hotel

    The MD Design Hotel was a brilliant place to stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The facilities at the hotel were exactly what we needed. We loved the roof terrace and the room was a good size. It was great being able to drop our bags before we checked in and also stow them when we checked out. The location was absolutely excellent. It’s right in the heart of the old city, but it is on a lovely quiet street. You can walk to many of the tourist attractions (cathedral, market, are museum, etc, etc. I would absolutely stay there again and I’d recommend the hotel to others.

    Top location but nevertheless surprisingly silent little street, 3 minutes from the Cathedral
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Superior Single Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    You have to carefully memorise the front-door access code, given to you at check-in on a piece of paper, so as to be able to enter the building in off-peak hours, because the reception is not 24/7. In absence of that code a phone call is necessary.

    Top location 3 minutes of walk away from the Cathedral, but in a silent area of the downtown. Lucky spot: tourists mainly crawl southwest and southeast from the cathedral square, not in the direction of the hotel in the northeast. Clean room, modern design, elevator, free coffee, balcony accessible from the top floor.

    Charming, modern and cozy boutique hotel in the center of historic town of Valencia
    • Leisure trip

    there was an occasional smell from the sewer in the bathroom.

    The location is excellent, just a 5 min walk through the old streets and you end up right in front of the cathedral. very easy check-in and location as described. From the moment you enter, you are overwhelmed with the specific scent of cleanliness. the room was excellent, with a small balcony overlooking a quiet street. Having your morning coffee in the center of Valencia with that peace is something great. The bed was comfortable, the cleanliness is exceptional. There is a water kettle with tea and coffee in the room, but you can also go down to the first floor and use the free coffee machine. the bonus is the big rooftop. there is also daily cleaning too, the room is well equipped, very modern and stylish. highly recommend.

    Only comment would be that the bathroom had no ventilation so the floor became very slippy due to the steam from the shower.

    Good location, easy to get to the metro for the airport and access to buses if needed. The hotel is nice and small hotel and the staff were friendly. Room was good size and beds were very comfortable. Easy to get into the town and to/from airport. Had everything we needed for a short stay, Useful to have the small fridge in the room, the coffee machine on 1st floor was a nice touch and we enjoyed using the roof terrace to relax after sightseeing.
