“A great base for our busy stay in Gandia”

Hotel Cibeles provided the perfect stay for our week in Gandia, where there is much to do & we kept busy in town, enjoyed the local beaches & visited Valencia by train. The hotel has a smart exterior & looks great lit up in the evenings. The pretty reception vestibule leads to a lovely poolside terrace & bar, or a sweeping stairway to the dining room. The rooms are a fair size & have great balconies. We ate good breakfasts there, & had our dinners out as there are plenty of fun restaurants a stroll away. Gandia beach is also walking distance & the pedestrian area comes to life in the evenings with shops & stalls. We had a car, & the hotel has a small underground carpark. The staff were a pleasure, & we would definitely stay there again!

“Three night break.”

We stayed three night half board. Hotel staff very helpful & friendly. The hotel was spotlessly clean & following Covid cleaning/hygiene. Excellent room with sea view. Food excellent. Great location. Definitely recommended this hotel.

“Well located and Clean !”

HOTEL CIBELES, I forgot to write this review but I went to this Hotel in December 2018 and found it to be very pleasant, clearly a bit quiet for the time for year. I found the Hotel very clean and staff very helpful, although, generally in the area and hotel, they did not speak much English, (But why should they) Very few down sides from what I saw, maybe one of the fire doors on the year staircase sticks but does close. Food was OK, buffet style, not much available but I think that was due to not many or hardly any folk being in the hotel at that time. The breakfast, as I recall, was continental affair, no hot food available. Having said that, the food available was ample for my needs but nothing to get excited about. There was a microwave in the restaurant! I did not use the bar area but found the restaurant prices to be very reasonable, I think a bottle of House Red was about 5 euro, so you get the idea. Rooms were all very pleasant, clean, the TV only had a couple of English channels. The Hotel is about 5 minutes walk from the beach, a very large and clean beach with wide promenade. Equally, you are about 10/ 15 minute walk from the dock / marina area, which has bars, shops and sea trip outlets. As you are in Gandia Playa, the Hotel is on a bus route, the L2 I think, to the main town, about 20 minute ride for about one and half euro, this fee seems to be a ‘one ticket price fits all’, you can pay on the bus, this bus also goes past and stops at the shopping mall but takes you to the main centre / bus depot, of Gandia Town. The Town has a good few pleasant bars, restaurants and locations to visit, if you are interested in the famed Burgess family. From this bus depot, you can get a bus, also the L2 but not the same one as above, to the nearby, (20k), OLIVA, if you want to explore that is. Again about 2 euro but these buses are not very frequent. This is a nice town, nothing special but visit the old town and maybe Amigoes Bar, which has been featured on TV Outside the Hotel, there are several bars and restaurants. Turning right out of the hotel and walking about 3 to 4 minutes, is a bar on the corner called El Coladito, which is next to a small roundabout. This is a modern open bar but they had some great themed nights, including a night when most drinks cost a euro, check out their website. The bar is nothing fancy and not for everyone but some great little deals and not too far away to stagger back to the Hotel. I think this Hotel is well located for the sea front, other bars and also travelling to other areas. There seemed to be plenty of parking outside and near to the hotel but this was December and now that every where seems to be slowly taken over by the ORA parking enforcement company, you need to check. I liked this hotel and it seemed to suit my needs. I did not use any of the hotel facilities, bar, pools as I used it as a base to explore and anyway, as it was December, nothing was open or going on anyway.

So Hotel was clean, room was to good standard, did struggle a little as English is not spoken often here and receptionists spoke just pidgeon English but we got by and fair play to them for speaking English better than us Spanish. Biggest issue was when we went to eat, all inclusive Breakfast lunch and dinner, food was ok all you can eat, but some dishes were great some were just average. Issue was around Drink we were not allowed to even bring our own water to the desk and was told off for doing so, they charged even for water. To be fair there was a couple of nights entertainment for the Spanish guests, we just joined in and had a laugh, dont think they minded to much
