Whether you are escaping for a quick restorative break after a hard week in the office or are spending a few days taking the cultural highlights of a city, sometimes you just really want to stay somewhere where you can be pampered in style. Choose from these Valencia hotels, where you can submerge yourself in a hydrotherapy pool or relax in a sauna or steam room at the end of the day, as well as indulge in a wide range of massages and beauty treatments.
Las Arenas started life as a glamorous spa resort more than a century ago, when taking the waters was all the rage, and it was frequented by the great and good of the day. Although it has been largely rebuilt, the pool, pavilion and colonnades give you an idea of what it was like back in the distant days of the 20th century. The spa has lost none of the luxe factor, and you can breathe in that healthy sea air as you work your way around the thermal pools. Sisley products are used for treatments, which include a Hanakasumi massage with a cherry blossom and rice powder exfoliation procedure. You’ll feel pampered like a film star.
