Valencia’s hotel prices fluctuate noticeably by season, influenced by climate, demand, and major festivals. In spring (March to May), 3-star hotels average $95 per night, while 4-star properties charge around $145. Summer (June to August) sees 3-star rates climb to $120, with 4-star hotels averaging $180, due to beach tourism and school holidays. Autumn (September to November) prices moderate: 3-star hotels drop to $85, and 4-star rooms hover at $135. Winter (December to February) is the budget traveler’s window, with 3-star rooms available for about $75 and 4-star options for $120 per night.

Booking at least three months in advance is critical during these periods. Off-peak travel in winter or late autumn can yield savings of 30-40% compared to spring and summer peaks, making Valencia an excellent value destination in the shoulder or low season.
