Caro Hotel, Valencia

Almirante, 14, Ciutat Vella, 46003 Valencia, Spain. (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“Near the city’s grand cathedral, the 26-room Caro Hotel occupies a 19th-century palace with notable architectural details from Gothic arches to an original Roman mosaic. Elegant, minimalist interiors by Francesc Rifé are heavy on polished marble and modern furnishings.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Valencia.

Fodors review:

“A triumph of design, opened in 2012, this elegant modern hotel is seamlessly wedded to an important historical property: a 14th-century Gothic palace, built on the 12th-century Arabic wall and over the Roman Circus, fragments of which are on show.”

Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Valencia.

Lonely Planet review:

“Housed in a sumptuous 19th-century mansion, this hotel sits atop two millennia of Valencian history, with restoration revealing a hefty hunk of the Arab wall, Roman column bases and Gothic arches.”

Telegraph review:

“Historic, monumental and majestic — that just about sums up this grand former palace of the Marqués de Caro. The old city walls are retained within the hotel’s very chic and modern design to create an impressive interior of contrasts. Each room is individually styled and tells its own story.”

Stylish hotel, superb location, wonderful team of staff

The hotel was stylish and comfortable. Breakfast was relaxed with good service and plenty of choice. But what made our stay really excellent was the the staff: they were friendly, helpful and efficient. It seems like they were acting as a real team - and it showed.

I would have liked coffee making facilities in our room. I know I could have ordered complimentary coffee to be brought to our room , but I would prefer early in the morning to make it myself rather than see a stranger! Even though I'm sure they would have been charming.

Best location. It is a short walk to many popular attractions. Nice staff. Good access for cars and taxis despite the narrow and old streets.The best hotel in Valencia

Taxi drivers seem to have trouble finding this hotel. they dropped us off around the corner. We did arrive in a car and the navigation took us straight to the entrance.

Wonderful stay, great hospitality!

Really cool hotel, modern mixed with traces of history. The amenities were wonderful, staff were excellent. We were running late to catch our train and the staff rushed out to the main road to get us a taxi—really grateful for that gesture!

Amazing location! Fabulous hotel, restaurant and staff!

Fabulous hotel! Would go back definitely! Lovely amenities, amazing restaurant, bar and staff! Comfy bed and soft fluffy towels. Free minibar is also great!

We were in a loft room and I really had to mind my head as ceiling was very low near the bed. Bathroom was not seperated from the room so with the ac was a little chilly when getting out of the shower. Otherwise it was a gorgeous room!

Great location fabulous staff

Great small hotel within the city walls. The breakfast room is interesting as it is down in the amongst Roman ruins. The staff went out of its way to be helpful. On site parking is a necessity.

Small swimming pool but at least there is one. Not much to dislike

It was wonderful, I would recommend to others, and happily stay again.

I had a large balcony with lots of direct sun in the afternoon. The location was in a very quiet and safe area, and close to everything. The breakfast was excellent. Much to choose from in the buffet as well as a full menu, and everything was fresh and prepared well.

The only thing I didn’t like was that the design of the room included a bed that was much lower than normal. Probably fine for most, but I have serious problems with my back that made it difficult.

Wonderful boutique hotel! Great location, food/drinks and staff very attentive!

Gorgeous boutique hotel tucked away in a quiet corner just a short walk to amazing restaurants/bars! Beds were amazing! Like sleeping on clouds and the free mini bar was great too! Restaurant served amazing food and the drinks were perfect! It was our 36th wedding anniversary and the hotel spoilt us by giving Prosecco and beautiful homemade chocolates on arrival.

The only thing and it’s a personal preference is that there is no private bathroom! Abit chilly on exiting the shower! 😂oh and no coffee/tea making facilities in the room, you had to ring up for it. Was included in the room price and was quick but I like to make my own!

Superb Hotel with wonderful staff

The Hotel is in a central yet quiet location so great for getting around the Old Town without noise at night. The staff were superb, everyone was very helpful, polite and professional going beyond above and beyond when ever we asked for anything. The room (14) was beautiful, very spacious, comfortable and very well equipped.

The only tiny thing I would say was that the chairs by the pool were a little uncomfortable if you wanted to relax for an extended period.

Relaxing, quiet, clean and friendly place in perfect location for our first time in Valencia.

The room was spacious, quiet and comfortable, and the staff were efficient and friendly. The location was superb - easy walking to the old town as well as for trams/buses to the beach.

The outdoor patio area was small and got little sun so not a place to hang out. No tea/coffee in the room, though the staff bring it to you for free when requested.

We'd stay there for a month.

But what truly set this hotel apart was its exceptional staff. Not only were they accommodating and attentive to our every need, but their extensive knowledge of the hotel's history and the surrounding area added an extra layer of depth to our stay. It felt like we were being guided by locals passionate about sharing their city with us, offering insights and recommendations that you simply wouldn't find anywhere else.

We would not hesitate to recommend Caro hotel to friends and colleagues and will stay here again.

The location is perfect in that it is central to the historic area and one can walk everywhere on foot. It is also in a surprisingly quiet area. The staff were super friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble.

The room was spacious although because of being 'contemporary' it was a little dark so more lighting would have been good.

Very nice hotel in a convenient location in the old city.

The staff were very friendly and helpful with all our needs and requests for information or assistance. We liked the bar in the hotel for both coffee and drinks. Room service was fantastic. The hotel was well-located in the old city near the cathedral but also convenient to public transport (buses). We enjoyed the large circular bathtub in the room - romantic.

The bedroom was poorly lighted and thus dark and dim in the night and early morning. Could be considered romantic I suppose though.

Great stay

Friendly staff, great location. Bed firm which I loved. Even more so as it’s rather unusual!

Lack of kettle in the room was inconvenient. We had a toddler and hot water was required to make a bottle. Although staff was happy to bring and efficient, it’s not ideal having someone coming in when you just woke up and are still in your pjs. Uncomfortable for sure.
