Hotel Valentina

10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing week’s stay in Hotel Valentina. Everything from the lobby to the bathrooms were immaculate and the staff were friendly and helpful. The only small thing I would have changed was longer opening hours of the rooftop pool and bar. It was a shame it closed at 6pm though this may reflect the off-season visit being that it was October. All-in-all an overwhelmingly positive experience. We had breakfast one of the mornings and there was plenty of variety from continental to cooked breakfast. Thank you Hotel Valentina for our amazing stay! Highly recommend to others visiting"
