Petit Palace Vargas

Everything was perfect. It is exactly like the pictures, completely spacious, really clean, friendly staff, good location and overall a really great place to stay. It was never too loud or too quiet around the area, there is plenty of bars, restaurants, shops etc around the area. Plus everything is within walking distance, so nothing is too far! The room is provided with loads of little hidden gems and quirky things, which made it even better. Any problems and reception are happy to help at any given moment. The bed is comfy, the shower is perfect, and the bar area on the terrace is gorgeous.

We only stayed one night as we needed to be near the bus station so for us the location was good. We did however walk into the centre for the afternoon and evening and it was a pleasant 20 minute or so walk. Had we been staying longer this would not have bothered us. The hotel is very pleasant, just what you would expect . The rooms and facilities were good, the bed comfortable. Jose who checked us in was friendly and assured us of his attention if there was anything further we needed. Due to an early start we were unable to have breakfast but we did have a peak at the roof top terrace where it is served and it looked lovely. We would have liked to try it .

We arrived by bus from Portugal and the hotel was just across from the bus station. It was also a great location for getting the bus to the airport on the morning we departed for an early flight. It is walking distance to city sights (about 20 mins) and there are plenty of bars and cafes close by and even McDonalds across the road. We stayed for 3 nights. The hotel itself is super clean, the beds very comfortable and the air conditioning in the rooms was fantastic. It hit 40 degrees while we were there. There is nothing I can fault, the shower was fab, and hairdryer and toiletries were great too. The staff were very nice and helpful with directions and even assisted me in printing off tickets I needed. The breakfast provided a great array of foods in a small area on the fifth floor. There was indoor and outdoor seating on a terrace that overlooked the city… very pleasant for your morning coffee..which was a good coffee too.

I chose this hotel because of its location close to the Plaza de Armas bus station, and it was perfect for that as it's just across the road. It's a little further from the main attractions for most visitors - about a fifteen to twenty minute walk from the Santa Cruz district. It was extremely hot during my visit, but the hotel remained pleasantly cool. The staff were friendly, and the room was clean, comfortable and spacious with a small fridge and a hairdryer.

Everything was delightful in spite of it being slightly over-priced. I stayed 4 nights and was accommodated to the quieter part of the hotel away from street noise and elevators. This is a very well located minimalist modern looking hotel close to all the attractions and at the same time removed from the crowd madness. Bus terminal and metro are right across the street, which was convenient when coming from the airport. Room and bathroom were spotless, I appreciated the complimentary water bottles upon arrival A continental breakfast was offered (12 euros) everyday on 5th floor with an option to have on the terrace and satisfy wide palate of tastes, it had everything ( eggs, oatmeal,pastries, fruits, cheeses, cereals etc…) The staff ( reception and breakfast buffet) was very customer centric, engaging and professional, they went over and beyond to assist with securing activities and answer questions. Shoutout to Marta, Saul and Marien and the young lady overseeing breakfast ( her name escapes me, she was lovely) Internet wifi access was impeccable & strong signal regardless of where I was in the hotel building. There was always complimentary pastries and tea in the lobby. Overall I was delighted with my stay at the Petit Vargas Hotel.
