The hotel is located in the place right next to the Opera Theatre. That is very centric with a lot of restaurants and bars nearby, yet the room was quiet. We really liked the breakfast, the location and the interiors of the hotel. The bathroom is all renovated and feels really comfortable.
SpainGood location,able to walk to everywhere from here.Lots of bars and restaurant on your doorstep.Staff friendly and helpful.Comfortable and clean room.
SpainI like the location, the room was so clean, bathroom big and beautiful.
SpainWonderful room, very clean and lots of light. Beautiful view of the opposing building and river as well. The beds were very comfy and soft, and we both slept very soundly as a result. Very helpful and friendly staff too, I was very impressed. The location is amazing- right beside the river so right on the edge of Casco Viejo, a few steps from the Ribera market, and just a short walk to the Guggenheim. Ideal stay and will hopefully return soon!
CanadaWe got an upgrade to a superior room, which was very welcome and more spacious. The room overlooked the main walkway into the old town so had a great view and but it was still quiet. We have stayed at Petit Palace hotel previously and enjoy their breakfast buffet, although this had been toned down due to COVID it was still substantial. It has a great location, close to the old town and, important for us, close to the railway station. Great value for money.
United KingdomWe have stayed at the Petit Palace hotels on several occasions and always had a good breakfast, although this had been toned down due to COVID restrictions the breakfast was plentiful and of good quality. The room was quiet as requested. Great location close to the old town and handy for the train station which was important for us.
United KingdomPerfect to walk around the old town and city centre. Amazing staff!
SpainHotel guests receive a discount on the parking fee in the nearby parking lot (ask the front desk for that).
