Top Alicante Hotel Reviews

Hotel Port Alicante City & Beach

Hotel Port Alicante City & Beach

6/10 Okay
"Room - the bed was comfy and fresh towels were provided every day. You have to pay extra for a balcony (I would definitely recommend this). However, the curtains are not very thick and the outside lights are kept on all night making it very tricky to fall asleep. Also the elevator takes forever to come, there were often long queues for it during peak times (e.g. after breakfast). Food - limited options for special dietaries (e.g. lactose intolerant). Pool - there are two pools with the rooftop one being heated. Towels were provided but you then had to pay €2 if you wanted a fresh one. "

Which area of Alicante is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious travellers seeking affordable accommodation in Alicante, areas like the city centre, particularly around the Mercado Central, and the neighbourhoods further from the beachfront offer the best value. These locations provide a good balance of lower prices and convenient access to transport and attractions.

Solo travellers will find plenty of inexpensive hostels and small hotels dotted throughout the city centre. Staying near the Mercado Central means you're close to fresh food markets for self-catering options and well-connected by local buses and the tram system, making it easy to explore the city and its surroundings without relying on taxis. Many of Alicante's free attractions, such as the Explanada de España promenade and the Postiguet Beach, are also within easy walking distance.

Couples looking for a good deal might consider the areas just a little further inland from the main tourist strip, such as parts of Ensanche-Diputación or around Avenida Alfonso El Sabio. Here, you can often find comfortable, reasonably priced hotels that are still very accessible to the core attractions.
What are the top-rated cheap hotels for families in Alicante?
For families seeking great value in Alicante, top-rated options include Tomate Rooms, Hotel Albahia, and Hotel Sercotel Maya Alicante.

During these periods, you'll find lower prices for flights and accommodation compared to the peak summer months, while still enjoying pleasant weather.

For solo travellers, these months offer a quieter experience with fewer crowds. Exploring the Santa Bárbara Castle, wandering through the charming Santa Cruz neighbourhood, or simply relaxing on Postiguet Beach becomes a more serene and budget-friendly activity. Many local eateries offer 'menu del día' (set lunch menus) at very reasonable prices, great for an inexpensive and authentic meal.

Families can also benefit greatly from visiting during these times. The weather is still warm enough for children to enjoy the beach and outdoor activities without the intense heat of July and August.

Is Alicante a budget-friendly destination?
Yes, Alicante is a budget-friendly destination, offering excellent value for money, particularly when compared to other popular Spanish coastal cities.

Accommodation options are varied and affordable, with many hotels, apartments, and hostels available at reasonable prices, especially if booked outside of peak summer months. Travellers will find great value in the city centre or neighbourhoods slightly set back from the main beach areas.

Couples and solo travellers can enjoy a wealth of free and inexpensive activities. Exploring the historic Santa Bárbara Castle, with its panoramic views of the city and the Mediterranean, costs nothing to enter if you walk up. Strolling along the Explanada de España, a beautiful palm-lined promenade, or relaxing on Postiguet Beach are also free. For an authentic experience, wandering through the charming narrow streets of the Barrio de la Santa Cruz, with its colourful houses and flower-filled balconies, is a delightful way to spend an afternoon without spending a penny.

Dining in Alicante is very affordable. Seek out local tapas bars and 'menus del día' (daily set menus) which offer a multi-course meal at a fixed, low price.

Alicante offers a wealth of fantastic free activities, making it an excellent choice for budget-conscious travellers looking to soak up the culture and beauty of the Costa Blanca.
