The America's Cup sailboat race may be over, but there's still plenty to see in the Spanish city of Valencia. And since the Westin Valencia is one of this week's participating Starpicks properties, now just might be the perfect time to pay a visit to this jewel of a city on the Mediterranean coast. With last-minute rates of at least 20% off regular rates for stays during the next two weekends, it won't hurt a bit to enjoy a couple of days wandering through the Santiago Calatrava-designed City of Arts and Sciences, (video right) or enjoying the many bohemian bars along the Calle Alta.

Of course, the Westin Valencia is in itself a Valencia attraction. The building was originally constructed from a modernist style dating from 1917, and is now one of the most impressive structures in a city of impressive structures. When dinner time rolls around, guests can enjoy delicious seafood and other specialties at the Rosmarino Mediterranean Restaurant, or international delights at Oscar Torrijos. Thanks to the tradition of afternoon siestas, Spaniards are able to enjoy nightlife until the wee hours, so if you're well rested, be sure to drop by H-Club Valencia for some expertly-mixed cocktails and live music until 2:30 a.m. The Westin Valencia is just one of more than 35 Starpicks properties this week, so take a look at the list and decide where you'd like to go on your next adventure.
