bristol170kj Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Firstly apologies this is not motorhome related. I've driven the A23 dual carriageway between Zaragoza and Valencia a few times in the motorhome but later in the year I'll be there without the 'van. I have noticed a few hotels along this stretch and need to stop a night in April between Valencia and Teruel. Does anyone know the names or hotel chains that run these stops? I'm assuming they are like our Premier Inns. Have tried searching the internet but drawn a blank. Thanks Keith

It should have read . . . Spanish Motorway hotels!
Agaric Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 The big French Accor chain seem to have a lot of hotels in Spain if you go to the bottom of this page you will see all the different hotel groups, try anything on the third line down Ibis Formula1 etc. http://www.accorhotels.com/es/espana/index.shtml
PJay Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 Have any of the camp sites you have used before, got chalets or some form of rental accommodation? Might be worth a Google ?? PJay
Randonneur Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 We used a hotel in Teruel a few years ago, sorry couldn't tell you the name but it looked like a Swiss Chalet and was on the main road. Very nice hotel and good food.
nowtelse2do Posted January 18, 2016 Posted January 18, 2016 When I take the car abroad, I book a lot of my stopovers through booking.com if you hit any problems you can cancel the booking right up to the day before and not loose any money. I would not recommend the Formula 1 chain though. They look like they may have some sort of agreement with the government because there are loads of immigrants living in them. I canceled 2 of my stopovers last June. As already said, Ibis & Accord are usually very good budget hotels. Dave
bristol170kj Posted January 18, 2016 Author Posted January 18, 2016 Thanks to all who replies. It gives me something to work on, Keith
Will H Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Keith, why not just turn up and book wherever you are, no rushing to make a deadline or being too early. We have hardly ever booked hotels, if we don't like what we see we move on to another, so simple and have never found them full. Will

We have hardly ever booked hotels, if we don't like what we see we move on to another, so simple and have never found them full. Will That is exactly what we did as you don't exactly know where you will be at a particular time. As has been said if you don't like it move on, there are plenty out there and don't forget that the Spanish eat late and a lot of the restaurants don't start serving until 9pm, that was a mistake we made.
Zydeco Joe Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 We also never book hotels while on the road in a car while abroad. Have found it much easier to find a hotel than "the" hotel. Stop when you want no racing. B-)
Mike B. Posted January 19, 2016 Posted January 19, 2016 Whereabouts do you want to stop-nearer to Teruel or Valencia? I am going past there on Monday, I'll have a look for you if you want Mike

I am going past there on Monday, I'll have a look for you if you want Mike Thanks, we are flying out to Valencia and arrive late in the afternoon. We need to be in Teruel early the following day, hence my looking at booking a hotel on the way between the two. So I was thinkng around half way if there is a road side hotel. Thanks again. Regards Keith

Regards Keith Hi Keith had a look for you and roadside hotels were a bit scarce in the area you wanted. However there was one just off J22 of the A23 motorway which is about 50kilometers north of Valencia. Near Barracas-roughly halfway between Vaencia & Teruel Hope this helps Mike
