I spent two nights at Turia Hotel. The first night was at a room on the top floor which had a great view but one of the front desk members tried to charge me 50 EUR for upgrading from one on the second floor, upon hearing this, the manager said I could have the upgrade for 25 EUR. Which I agreed to. Was it worth it? The room was certainly comfortable but lacked a refrigerator which I consider a basic necessity, specially at a 4 star hotel. On the second night which was at a single room on the 3 floor and which was also very comfortable I asked if a small mini fridge could be brought to my room and the manager said no, but that I could store things in a fridge at the front desk which I thought was weird… Most of the staff were polite and the buffet breakfast which included champagne was delicious and definitely made up for the inconvenience of not having a fridge in the room. I was also offered a voucher for a welcome
Cocktail on my second night which was great! The location is fantastic, overlooking the Turia Park and it’s also conveniently located right next to El Corte Inglés, which is Spains’s version of Harrods. The bus terminal was also right next to the hotel and the bathrooms were very clean and covered in marble. So overall I had a great stay at Hotel Turia but I think they could invest in adding mini fridges to the rooms and also improving the speed of their internet connection.
