Sercotel Palacio De Tudemir - Orihuela

4-star boutique hotel in a restored 1755 palace with Landmark Architecture Award

Historic Building & Awards

Sercotel Palacio De Tudemir Orihuela occupies a building dating back to 1755, restored to retain its original character and splendour, opening as a hotel at the end of 2005. The Valencia Tourism Agency declared this hotel the first 'landmark architecture' hotel in the region, a distinction based on its architectural heritage. Original features such as traditional wooden beams and an imposing entrance remain, giving the property a sense of history not found in standard hotels.

Secure underground parking with electric car charging is located 400-500 metres from the hotel, and the train station is also within easy walking distance.
