27/02/2023
February 27, 2023. This year the Fallas will be back to what they were and, on top of that, the Nit de la Cremà (March 19) falls on a Sunday , so you can't miss it. If you want to experience them like a true local , and enjoy some of the peculiarities of this tradition , declared Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, stay in any of these 4 centrally located establishments ( Casual Vintage Valencia, Casual del Cine Valencia, the adults-only Casual Socarrat Valencia and Casual de las Artes Valencia ), that the Valencian chain Casual Hoteles has in the city of Turia.
Fallero handkerchief, chocolate with churros and horchata :
In them, in addition to enjoying the privileged location of all the hotels, especially Casual Vintage Valencia , whose balconies located in front of the Plaza del Ayuntamiento are practically full to see the mascletà live every day at 2:00 p.m. (balconies are still available to rent for 350 euros + VAT per day. More information: vintage@casualhoteles.com), you can immerse yourself in the Fallas customs like a true Valencian .
Although it's hard to get up early, especially if you went to bed very late, if you want to emulate the locals, you absolutely have to go to a despertá. It's held every day at 8:00 a.m. , with a series of firecrackers that definitely achieve their goal. To better cope with such an early morning, Casual Hotels in Valencia will include a more than tempting hot chocolate with churros in the buffet breakfast on March 17, 18, and 19. And, as tradition dictates, no Fallero fan can go without one during these ancient festivities.
Another of the most deeply rooted customs of Valencians during Las Fallas is to enjoy a delicious tiger nut horchata . This will be the welcome drink that all guests at Casual hotels will receive upon arrival at their respective establishments on March 17 and 18 .
To reinforce the theme that characterizes Casual Hotels, from March 13 to 19, all receptions and breakfast buffets will include decorations typical of these holidays, with firecrackers, handkerchiefs, and other very local decorations.
Finally, it's worth highlighting the element that possibly distinguishes the Falleros and Falleras the most: the traditional Fallero scarf , also known as the herb scarf . Its origin lies in the use that Valencian farmers and peasants gave it when they went to work in the orchards, as it was very useful for covering their heads and protecting themselves from the sun, for wiping away sweat, and for avoiding the smoke when they burned the straw from the rice crops.
The traditional one is blue and white checkered , and if you stay at Casual Hotels on March 18th and 19th , you'll receive one as a gift . It'll be perfect for exploring the streets of Valencia and looking like a true local. We look forward to seeing you!
