Just an overnight stay to get a flight in the morning. Close to airport bus stop, I wish I could have stayed longer.
"Convenient location, fine hotel"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 17, 2013
Easy 10 minute walk to the train station or shopping district, 10-15 minutes to the beach. Everything is very close. No complaints about the hotel. Staff were helpful.

Not anywhere near a 4star hotel as advertised. Reception staff expected to act as barkeeper. No Tea/coffee facilities in room. No tea/coffee available in bar until 9am when they are SOOOOO busy. Breakfast offered brilliant for 6 euros, evening meal unappetising.

"great for a stay in alicante"
Perfect position, spotless, good if limited breakfast,rooms are fine and great staff, we had a lovely stay. The only downside is no parking but there is a public car park just over the road at €22 pre 24 hour stay so budget for this, we would stay againGenuine Expedia guest review
"Location location location!"
It was an OK experience but we expected more from a 4star hotel. The rooms are pretty spacious and clean but everything is a little dated. Some of the staff is super friendly and others are not really. The location is very central but parking is not possible near by but the hotel offers cheaper parking near by (10 min walk).Genuine Expedia guest review
"Only issue would be the noise but some days that m"
It was a very central location. Nice clean hotel, nice staff, good value for money.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great choice for all amenities of Alicante"
Excellent hotel (two ladies staying four nights excluding weekend). Great location less than five minutes from a great beach and right in the old town, handy for all the bars and restaurants - not too far from the shops/market/tram stop at the market where you can catch an immaculate tram/train to Benidorm (should you really want to go there!). They […] don't advertise their roof terrace which is great for photos and a nightcap (taken up from the bar next door!). Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"Fine location, no frills Hotel !"
Although I only stayed 1 night on a Business trip I am a frequent leisure traveller with my wife so I tend to pay close attention to whats on offer wherever I stay ! The Mediterranea Plaza was a decent hotel in a great location for exploring the town of Alicante ! It's situated in a lovely little square with a unique water feature across from it and […] is a short walk from Alicantes Rambla and is surrounded by many little pedestrian walkways with plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants to choose from ! Alicante is surprisingly similar to a smaller version of Barcelona in parts ! The hotel was good, beds basic but suitable, good bathroom with a good shower. Lovely and helpful front desk staff. Breakfast is only a continental style buffet but was decent with a lot of choice. I woul recommend Mediterranea Plaza for any non-fussy travellers for whom their hotel is the base for sleep only in between exploration ! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"great location and staff"
I have stayed in hotels all over the world and this was one of best hotel experiences ever. The staff at front desk were very polite and helpful. If in Alicante again I would stay here before looking else where. The location is very good. All though I had a room looking out the back of the hotel I was very happy with it.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"A friendly hotel in a great location..."
I would stay at this hotel again any time I visit Alicante. The location is great, the views amazing and the staff very helpful and obliging. Everyone form the chambermaid to the receptionists went out of their way to be helpful and friendly. We didn't eat in the hotel itself, but there are a restaurant and cafe next door and loads more a two minute […] walk away. Handy for the beach, the castle, etc. About 15mins walk from the bus station so great for those not travelling by car. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"All about the location"
We booked a four night stay at the Eurostars Mediterrane Plaza whilst we had a short city break in Alicante to get some winter sun. First of all Alicante is extremely easy to get to from the airport you just take the C6 bus from outside departures at airport and it costs 2.70 euros and takes no longer than 30 minutes. For the hotel we asked for the […] Puerto del Mar stop (marina) and the Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza is just across the road opposite the town hall. Check-in was fine and the staff very friendly. I had emailed the hotel before arrival requesting a non-smoking room and had found them helpful. We were allocated room 401 which was small but clean, it faced on to a side street so had no view but a small balcony. The bed was comfy and the room had a big bathroom with bath with a shower over. We had a mini bar which had enough room in pop in our own drinks and we could get English news channels on the TV like Sky News. We had a safe in the room and we just needed to ask at reception for the key and pay a 20 euro deposit which was refunded on departure. This hotel to me is all about location as its a few minutes to the beach and the harbour and then literally less than a minute to the old town with all its bars and restaurants. I would agree that the hotel is not a four star but we found it to be clean and comfortable. We didn’t hear much noise from other rooms although like others have commented we did hear some noise especially on the Saturday night from outside. In terms of Alicante we really loved the city, we enjoyed the fact that it had a feel of a traditional Spanish town / city but there was a beach and harbour to enjoy as well. We had a wonderful city break in Alicante and would definitely go back. I would happily go back to the Mediterrane Plaza hotel as it’s clean and comfortable, in a brilliant location. It is not a four star hotel and is a little dated but it is a good base for stay in the centre of Alicante. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great location and at a good price"
Great location in the Historic Square very close to the Marina and the shopping and restaurants. Choice of subsidised car parks ranging from 8 -16 euros a day. I stayed 2 nights, the Saturday was very noisy outside and the balcony doors are not sound proofed, Sunday night was ok. This just seems to be the norm at the weekends in Alicante as I have had […] the same experience previously in Alicante. Bedrooms & bathrooms are very clean. Checkin was efficient & friendly. Did not have breakfast in the hotel as I eat in the Marina. Would stay again, got a great deal Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Very helpful reception staff but very disaapointed that our room was not ready for us, we were sent away three times as the room was not ready. Room became ready around 4pm which after an early flight was disaapointing, Sauna was broken throughtout stay, Breakfast was very good, have changed forthcoming booking as a second stay in the Eurostar is not […] for us.

"Alicante city - value for money"
Perfect location - 30 seconds to the old town and 2 minutes to the harbour / beach. Nice breakfast (a little expencive). I have stayed at the hotel before and recommended it for my mother, and I write this on behalf of my her (75 years) and her husband (80 yrs) - the only thing missing was a anti-slip carpet in the bath tub, and they would like two […] chairs so that both of them could sit comfortably (not in the bed). They will go back when they visit Alicante in the future. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Eurostar Mediterraneo Alicante for 3 Kings night"
Perfect hotel to see the end of the parade. Right in middle of old town with excellent tapas bar La Taberna around corner and so near castle. (free to visit with lift ride included!). Temporary "ice" skating rink set up in square in front of hotel with big xmas tree in middle. Across the road from the Marina too. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lovely […] buffet breakfast and such good value all round. Could not have been better. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza in Alicante old town"
Well situated right on the town square across from the town hall in the middle of the scenic old town. Very pleased with location near to all sites and views of the castle from town square. Just a couple of minutes from the sea front and marina. Breakfast was adequate and if you like continental style you would always find plenty to eat. Cooked breakfast […] only average so we didn't bother with this. Bed very comfortable, some comments say it is hard - I would say medium to firm mattress which suited us. Our room was at the rear of the hotel facing into a narrow street. The door opened onto a narrow balcony but no furniture, not that you would want to sit outside as it was in the shade and only view was by looking sideways to the sea. The door fitted poorly and wasn't sound proof. You could hear the noises of traffic, night-time revellers and early morning street cleaners which was a nuisance at first, but we got used to it and not all the time. If you are a light sleeper this could be a problem. Overall for the price paid and its location, I would recommend this hotel. I had no expectations of Alicante itself, but was pleasantly surprised by the city and would recommend for a short city break - the local tram is very good value running up and beyond Benidorm allowing you to go out for the day for very little cost. Also recommend the castle with its brilliant views. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

We really liked the location in the heart of the old town, hotel was quite noisy and the beds are hard. Staff friendly and warm, more then helpfull. Would recommend for a short stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice one!"
Centrally located, small but comfortable hotel. Handy for both the sea font and old town, it has cafes and bars adjacent in the same square. Used those for brerakfast, so can't comment on the food in the hotel. Staff were friendly and considering there were several thousand Scotland fans in town, noise was limited.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza - great location"
We enjoyed our one night at this hotel and would definitely come back. It was in the old town, close to restaurants and bars, and to the sea.

"Excellent hotel, location and staff."
The hotel was in a fantastic location, very clean and the hotel staff were extremely helpful. As we were on a budget we only took hand luggage so we asked if we could buy beach towels anywhere and they offered to lend us some free of charge. We had a late flight back so instead of charging us for late check out they offered us a shower room and towels […] so we could spend the day on the beach and then shower and change for a return flight home. Would definitely stay there again!! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Very Impressed!"
Lovely hotel in an excellent location,with the harbour and bars and resturants just a couple of minutes away. The hotel is in a gorgeous plaza with a very old and historical town hall.Within the plaza there are also a few bars aswell. The hotel itself is lovely,with very friendly staff.The rooms are spacious and very clean and well maintained. There […] is Internet on the first floor which is very reasonable 1 euro for 12 mins and 2 euro for 30 mins. The hotel does a breakfast buffet for 10 euro per person,and we used that each day.The choice is very good with cereal,fruit,toast,scrambled eggs ect well worth the 10 euro. I would definatley recommend this hotel and would absolutley stay there again without hesitation! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Four Stars - they must be very small ones!"
This is a great little hotel in what I think is the best location in Alicante, but I dont know how it has been granted four stars. Its clean and modern, and the rooms are fine, but the corridors are narrow and the reception area is tiny. I'll be happy to go back, provided I get it fora three star price! The hotel offers a breakfast buffet at €10, but […] if you don't want "the works", the restaurants on the sea front (2 minutes walk) offer breakfast from €2.50! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

I booked a double room bt when I have got there the lady at the reception gave me a single bed as there were no double bed available left. she suggested to move me to another room the next day but failed to do so. Finally the following day they manage to give me a bigger room. However, the hotel is very clean and the staff very helful. I would recommend […] this hotel and will be going back.

"Hotel Mediterranea Plaza"
We arrived in at Alicante Airport and took the bus C-6 (2.60 euros one way) to the hotel. The hotel is located close to the last stop of the bus. On getting off the bus you walk around 50 yards straight ahead and then turn right, follow the road down until you come to a square in which the hotel is located to your left in the corner. Upon arrival everything […] was fine. There are multi-lingual staff on hand. The one who checked us in could speak Spanish, English, German, French and Dutch so you shouldn't have any problems in that department. We were checked in quickly and headed up to our room (207) which had a great view out onto the square below. The rooms were very good, with all the expected amenities that come with a 4 star hotel (satellite tv, air conditioning, safe deposit box etc.) The room was clean and the beds, although a bit hard were OK. The one problem we had during our stay was, as mentioned in previous reviews, the noise. We suffered not so much from the noise from the square below but from the noise from the room next door. Our room had a very thin connecting door through to the neighbouring room which meant we could hear literally everything going on in that room (TV, converstaions, coughing, phonecalls) We were lucky because the people in the next room turned in at around midnight so it was OK, but I can see it being a real problem if people were to stay up into the early hours. We also used the gym which was OK. All in all very happy. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza, Alicante"
This charming hotel is very conveniently located in the centre of the old town near to a taxi rank and also for the airport bus. Rooms at the front have a lovely view over the Plaza Ayuntamiento. This is mixed blessing if you are a light sleeper - both due to occasional late night revellers and the fact that the municipal authorities start to clean […] the square at 0630hrs! The room was clean and comfortable, however, and the aircon / heating unit seemed to be very effective. The flatscreen TV worked well & offered a good choice of channels (European networks/BBCnews/CNN). The breakfast buffet offered a good choice on the continental front, including delicious pastries,though hot food (the usual bacon/scrambled egg/sausage) was slightly less appealing. I'm assuming the hotel was awarded 4 stars due to having a fitness suite & sauna (which we did not use) as there are no other public rooms to speak of apart from a cafe/ bar which is semi-detached through a door adjacent to the reception desk. Nevertheless, this hotel offers great value for money, particularly if you want to avoid a bland, monotonous hotel-chain experience. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Good hotel"
Very nice hotel, with excellent location. Easy access to the beach, Santa Barabara castle, la Rambla, nice restaurants nearly, and shopping centers or nightlife activities. The only problem was that there was a church nearby hotel that used to ring some kind of melody every 15 minutes until midnight which made it difficiult to sleep earlier or concentrate […] on own stuffs! Also, loud noises from nearby (such as drunk people talking loud) could be heard and could wake me up sometimes at 2-3 AM. But all in all, I liked the hotel and will go there again next time that I travel to Alicante. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Best Location in Alicante"
We stayed here to visit my daughter who lives in Spain and found it suited our needs perfectly. The location is spot on, close to the harbour and the promenade but far enough away to be quiet and almost traffic free. Stafff were very helpful and the rooms a good size. Breakfast was adequate and plenty of it. All in all a good stay. The only negative […] was there was a party of drunken Germans and Norwegians who made a lot o noise at night on two occasions, but that it is not the fault of the hotel except they didnt have the staff to handle it. Overall very good Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza Alicante - Ideal"
The Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza in Alicante is in an ideal location. Situated in the town hall square very near to the old district yet near to beach and marina. Ask for rooms overlooking the plaza. The views are stunning looking out at the castle. I would imagine there might be some noise in the evenings as it's a square but at the time of year we […] went (November) it was minimal and we were able to close the window. Hotel is very comfortable. All the staff are very friendly and always helpful. Breakfast in the hotel was buffet style, very enjoyable, and certainly worth the 10 € per day we paid. Would certainly recommmend this hotel. Lots of great places to eat nearby too. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

Loved the hotel and setting. Was ideal for the beach the shops and bars and resturants. They were all just a few minutes walk. There was no bar in the hotel but we new that when we booked and it was not a problem as everything we needed was just a stroll away. The hotel is set in a beautiful square. The only down side was it was very noisy in the square […] thurs, fri and sat nights, until early hours, but again we new this when we booked. All in all a lovely small hotel in a lovely location.

Hotel was perfectly located in a lovely square, only 2 mins walk from the beach. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Our room and en suite were both massive, if plainly decorated.
