The Victoria, Valence

Hotel Victoria is a small, family-run boutique hotel with contemporary design running throughout. Located directly outside the Valence train station (TGV from Paris in less than 3 hours), the hotel is perfect for couples who want to explore the city for a weekend or stop overnight on their way from the Rhone-Alps to the Mediterranean. Small in size but with everything you need – Nespresso machine in rooms, complete set of toiletries from Bigelow Apothecaries, slippers, bathrobes, air-conditioning and excellent service with a 24-hour front desk. Absolutely no noise from the streets despite its central location. The breakfast is optional but recommended with baked goods coming from the nearby award-winning bakery among other high-quality (and local) ingredients. Excellent price for what you get – friendly, clean, Parisian chic in Valence.
