Vincci Albayzin Hotel, Granada, Spain

I am a day or two slow at talking about this beautiful hotel in Granada, but let’s be honest here. The weather has been unusually HOT and when you are travelling, it can take it’s toll on the old body of mine.

The lobby, as with any hotel that Insight has put us in, has been top-notch. The bathrooms are all different, but with a little patience and a sense of humor, it all works out.

The breakfasts in this hotel was wonderful and we had a fabulous dinner in the hotel dining room one evening. We had musicians there for a few moments (they had two other restaurants to go to (for Insight), but you are guaranteed great meals.

The staff are very friendly and accommodating and you have nothing to worry about.

If you travel to Spain and Portugal and wish to find wonderful, clean and welcoming hotels, this should be one of them.

Barceló Valencia Hotel, Valencia, Spain

To make it simple….when we arrived here it is a Wow City being so modern. But wait: when you arrive in your room you begin to think you are really in a place like Denmark.

Sleek, almost stark in décor yet so comfortable. They have THE best curtains yet. Gives us an idea for our new condo when we get home.

The beauty in the bathroom also comes with a ‘where is the door? It’s all open with the exception of the frosted glass door for the WC (as noted all throughout Spain). Can be a little unnerving.

Each Hotel comes with different toiletries, but this one tops the last one as did the last one to the one before. Get it? They have individual packets of toothbrush/paste, comb, sewing kit as well as the norm for bath gel, shampoos/conditioners.

They have more space for the second suitcase.Yes, people- most travellers come in pairs so it is nice to know you both have a place to set up.

This hotel really works..super clean…beautiful, and close to everything.

This is a city not to miss when in Spain and definitely stay here. What a find.
