Great little hotel.
Great little hotel. Opposite beach, well worth extra for sea view. Mostly Spanish guests, mostly pleasant! Buffet breakfast not huge but perfectly adequate for most I think. Reception staff very helpful. Room extremely clean, could do with set of drawers adding.

Very good location. Clean and comfortable.
I was staying alone and was put in a standard interior room. No view but the room was excellent and cleaned daily. Shower was great. Towels lovely and soft. I didn't eat in the hotel through choice only. Bar facilities were ok but the bar manager Jose was a star and made me feel very welcome. Reception facilities very professional. I'll be back.

Staff very friendly and helpful
We stayed at this hotel as a stopover for 1 night. Hotel was right on the seafront for poinente beach with a few minutes walk to the old town for plenty of good restaurants and bars. Checking was very friendly and quick, rooms clean and quite a good size with a balcony to sit out on. We had our rental car towed whilst we were there for parking on the road behind the hotel - next to Burger King which we discovered on our way back from our night out. Calling the number the team only spoke Spanish so with limited words ourselves we took this into te hotel. The reception team couldn't,t do enough for us. They called te number and found out where the car was, the cost, what we would need to take and how we could get it back. They then called a taxi and came out and explained to the driver where we needed to go. Fantastic service over and above what we would expect in a little bit of a worrying time.

AVOID THIS HOTEL
I reserved for 5 nights a standard room with balcony together with half board.On arrival i was given the most awful inside room with no natural light -just gloom and doom. On calling the hotel pre reservation i was assured there would be AIR CONDITIONING and Internet available. There was NO A/C operating in temperatures of 30c and internet was available only in reception area. The food was simply dreadful-both at dinner and breakfast. The following morning i checked out and went to the TANIT Hotel and for little more money took full board where i had A/C --Internet in room and excellent food.

Position opposite beach very convenient
The room was great. The staff really helpful. Food choices a little limited could be improved. Mainly Spanish so perhaps that's what they like. Excellent value for money.

A nice and convenient hotel in benidorm
Hotel Marconi is a nice hotel. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful. They tried to speak to me though I do not speak and understand much Spanish. I appreciated how they treat me as guest in the hotel. Foods in the buffet very nice and lots of choices. The hotel cleanliness is superb. Hotel Marconi is very convenient to everywhere and near the old town shopping centre and of course near the sandy beach. I will surely comeback and recommend this hotel. My suggestions , make sure book your room facing the beach view, bring your own kettle, coffee and tea-making facilities as there is none in the room. It is recommended to those who will stay 5 days or more.

marconi - great location
The location of the Marconi Hotels is fantastic right on the beach. It is well worth paying extra fop a sea view room. The hotel was spotless, the staff were friendly and helpful above all this is one hotel I would return to again without question. It is also close to the Old Town for restuarants and bars . We were on bed and breakfast but this was adequate with freshly cooked food along with fruit, yogurts and a selection of cold food.

Amazing location!
Amazing location, right on the beach and close to the Old Town. Primarily local/Spanish speaking guests and staff but it meant it was not the "drunken tourist" hotel that often is in Benidorm. Breakfast was basic but fulfilling. Great rooftop deck/pool area. BBC World News in English on TV. Only downside is wireless is just in the lobby.

Don't like giving bad press but !!!!!
This hotel is outstandingly clean but that is all I can praise it for. The staff were fine and friendly when you could find them. Out of the five days we stayed there we ate in the restaurant once need I say more. We are not hard to please but I am struggling to find some good points to put forward It would be ideal for an overnight traveling salesman, but definitely not for anyone looking for a fun place to be. Sorry Marconi but true.

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Marconi, the room was very clean, the food was good, the location excellent and friendly staff. Free wifi in bar area was a plus, the only downside was sometimes you had to wait to get served at the bar as often there was no one about to serve you

Excellent seafront location
Slight warning to other visitors: There are 3 types of room - Standard rooms which are situated on the side of the building; Front sea view rooms on the front of the building and Finally 'interior' rooms which look out onto what is called a courtyard - but which in fact is an area of approx 20 feet by 15 feet complete with air conditioning pipework and drains. When one is on the 3rd floor of the 6 floors as we were it was difficult to see the sky. We did have a balcony. If space permitted we could have changed rooms. Overall cleanliness was excellent with absolutely no nasty drain smells. We had a problem with the electronic card key for the safe just as we were to leave - following a call to reception a maintenance person arrived to open the safe within literally two minutes.

Hotel Marconi, Benidorm
The only problem we had was that there was NO free parking anywhere near the hotel. Obviously, if we had arrived by coach or taxi from an airport, this would not have been a problem, but to us it really was a problem to have to leave our car unattended about half a kilometre away for our two day stay. When we checked out we were not shown the bill because the receptionist (who did not have much English) said it was all taken care of on the internet. We took this to mean that there were no extras (which there should not have been) and the price I paid when I booked covered our stay. Time will tell if we were charged more. That said, in every other aspect of our (full-board) stay we had no complaints at all. The hotel and our room was spotless, the food (buffet style) was very nice and plentiful and the staff were fine. We would recommend this hotel to others, (that do not take their own car).

The best Spanish hotel in Benidorm
We have stayed at the Marconi four times now.The staff are very helpful and nice. They now remember us probably because when we go it seems we are the only english guests .It is mainly Spanish people who stay there and they are older people but this does not bother us ,as when we go to Spain it is nice to spend time with Spanish people.The hotel is very clean and the maid comes in every day although this time I thought perhaps the room could have done with painting and the curtain neede repairing but perhaps this was because it was late in the season . When we stay again I think we would probably stay on a room only basis if we could as breakfast can be a bit of an experience and even making a cup of tea can be a bit of a trial although the staff and guests did help us out ! .They had dancing on one of the evenings and we did join in and had a lot of fun. It is in a good position for the old town and the beach .We had a large balcony and the view was amazing. The lady on reception was very helpful on our arrival and directed us to a road where we could park the car for free . We found a great Spanish bar up the road that did great breakfasts and were very freindly and cheap . About 200 hudred yards up the road was a great restaurant with superb food and very reasonably priced. All in all we had yet another great stay at the Marconi and special thanks to the bar manager Jose who as always was very efficent and a really nice man.

Would not go back
As we arrived at 3am in the morning we could not see exactly what we had let ourselves in for. It was clean on first impression but as the first day went on we realised that this a hotel for Spanish people nad not the English. Not many of the staff could speak English and my wife and I were glad to get out and go to the other end of benidorm each day. We certainly would never ever stay at this hotel again.

a fuir: le buffet ne change jamais !
Heureusement nous avions pris une demi-pension : buffet matin et soir : identiques à 95% d'un jour à l'autre A FUIR ! PAS DE FRIGO dans la chambre, HOTEL VIEUX : fenêtres mal isolées : bruit extérieur mal bloqué. Hôtel vieux avec déco vieille, pour des vieux, avec des vieux. point positif: l'emplacement en front de mer, mais sur la plage la plus calme ( plage du PONENTE). pour plus d'animation, cherchez un hotel sur la plage du 'LEVANTE'

Sentral plassering, men hotellet er dårlig!
Lukt av mugg/sopp på badet. Ingen minibar/kjøleskap. Ingen fjernkontroll til tv. Rom ikek klart v/innsjekk. Betalte for middag, det er ingen poeng. Personalet i restauranten kikket ikke en gang på meg når jeg kom for å spise middag. Valgte å gå til byen å spise. Veldig sentral plassering, bra!
