Eurostars Mediterranea Plaza - Alicante

Convenient location a block from the beach and an easy walk to the old part of town for dining and strolling. Our top-floor room had a nice outdoor patio that overlooked the square and looked toward the castle, but we were lucky to have one of the few rooms with such a patio. The breakfast provided was worth the discounted price offered when the reservation […] was made, but I wouldn't pay the full 10 euros asking price for a walk-in customer. Front desk staff spoke adequate English and tried to be helpful, but was out of stock of the local walking maps. Biggest complaint was with the free wireless internet service that was promised. It barely worked and seemed to be way over-subscribed. WiFi would usually not respond except very early in the morning before most guests were awake, rendering it nearly useless both in the room and in the hotel lobby. Read more

Very good value for money. Front desk provided excellent help and support regarding car rentals, recommendations, etc. A very disappointing aspect was access to internet in the room, although free WiFi is provided and the WiFi connection was available there was no access to internet around 80% of the times I tried to use it.

Excellent hotel and location. Receptionist was very helpful and recommended places to see and go. She spoke excellent English and even upgraded our room to a spacious suite. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay there again if our travels bring us to Alicante (charming and picturesque town).

v good but make sure you request non smoking if you dont smoke. our room smelt a bit as we were on a smoking floor and so it came through the aircon vents.

Pros: The location of the hotel was very good. a short half block walk to the water front. Mayor street behind the hotel had many paella/tapas restaurants to choose from. Beds and pillows were high quality. above average breakfast. Cons: We were driving a rental car and followed our GPS. The side of the hotel facing the street looks abaondoned. The […] full panel windows on the first floor are painted over- and the doors are chained- although there is a hotel sign with the name over this door. Initially, we were worried that the hotel had gone out of business since our booking. There is no sign or indication that the main entrance is around the block in a courtyard. Our first room smelled of smoke. I returned to registration to ask if they had another room and the agent became quite upset with me, insisting that she had not made a mistake and our room was indeed on a nonsmoking floor. she declared that hte hotel was sold out and that I had the right room. I explained that I understood but someone must have broken the rules. She then calmed down and changed our room. other interactions with staff were all luke warm, not all that friendly. The walls are paper thin and conversations in the next room were easily heard. The recommended parking garage was a good 4-5 block walk partly uphill, not all travellers would be able to make this walk. Read more

A very nice location in a very manageable city. Close to the water, restaurants and shopping. The hotel had a great pillow menu. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

Good hotel, clean, in the city center. The only "problem" experienced was the noise coming from the next door rooms when staff was making them up (it sounded like they were inside my own room!) and the annoyance of having to get often back to reception as the key-cards to open the room's door were not working. Overall it was all good - I'd recommend […] it! Read more

The location of the hotel is situated in a perfect location , set in a lovely plaza , so there was weddings happening and lot's of another things as the town hall is in the plaza , its a stones through from a line of restaurant's and shop's , and the beach and marina is only minutes away !!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Hotel is in a great location opposite the town hall on a quiet beautiful square only a minute from the seafront and marina. Service is adequate but not a typical 4 star hotel. The rooms are a reasonable size and clean. Breakfast was a very basic continental offering. Fantastic restaurants only a street away.The roof terrace is a great spot to sit […] with a drink and a roof top view of the stunning Castillo de Santa Barbera. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel is in a great location, really close to the bars and restaurants - a couple of minutes walk, and less than 5 minutes to the beach. The location is a mixed blessing, as my room suffered lots of noise from the streets below - as a light sleeper, I woke up many times during the night at the weekend. It was quieter on Sunday onwards. The staff […] were really friendly and helpful. The rooftop terrace was good, with great views of the city, castle, and churches. Read more

great hotel & great location. breakfast good. only complaint is the noise from the streets at night/ early hours as windows do not block the noise out & its a stretch to says there is a gym - just a few broken bits of equipment! having said that this is our third visit as location is everything!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Although in a great location we stayed on floor two and were disturbed by regular early morning noise in street. Hotel is more like a large hostel with no bar or lounge available. Wouldn't give it 4 stars.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Very noisy at night, up to 4am in the morning people returning from clubs & bars along the streets below. Could not get wi fi in the room, had to go to a bar a couple of doors away.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Just an overnighter before moving on, but have already re-booked for the same on our return in a couple of weeks.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Room a bit tired furnishing wise,chair in room was ripped, bedspread had a hole in it. Air conditioning was not very good and if you opened the windows it was very noisy.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Nice hotel, good size rooms, very clean. Hotel is centrally situated in old Alicante near the Town Hall and Cathedral. Unfortunately the small streets around the hotel echo at night when the bars close, and both the town hall and cathedral have clocks that chime and bells that ring. Bring earplugs! Hotel offers free wifi but we were unable to connect […] to the wifi service for most of our vacaction. Read more

This hotel is centrally located, very close to lots of restaurants and bars.It can therefore be a bit noisy in the early hours. The check in staff were very friendly and professional. It had a very small gym, clean and ok for a quick workout. Breakfast was in a small restaurant and had a good selection of cooked and continental items. It was all self […] service. I could not fault anything in the hotel at all. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Hotel was adequate but it should have Coffee or Tee making facilities. Furthermore, there is no lounge you could spend some time in to read a paper or wait for a Taxi. Breakfast was quite good. The room was kept very clean and linen changed every day, even the sheets, which we found was not necessary.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is located on the main Plaza across the street from the city hall.It was difficult to find even with GPS, because of many walking streets that are around the Plaza. We finally asked a policemen who pointed to the hotel. We were actually right on the Plaza but because there isn't a significant sign we didn't see it. They have a reserved parking […] spot on the street which was very convenient but in the morning we moved the car to a public parking area 5 min away near the beach for about 3euros. The hotel is right in the middle of the town so restaurants and sightseeing is all near by.The staff was friendly, spoke English, the room was large facing the square. WI-FI in the room, very large bathroom. We didn't have breakfast, because it was overpriced like most hotels. You can get nice breakfast nearby for 3euros. Read more

Overall very good for the money. Don't bother paying the extra for breakfast, it's poor value and you can go next door for a coffee and there are many good eating places very close. If you are English and a tea addict you will want to take your own tea bags and buy an electric kettle when you get there, If you open the window in your room, the noise […] from outside is excessive. The windows are effective at keeping it out. Internally, noise from other guests nearby can be intrusive. Read more

We are a couple who spent three nights at the begining of December 2012 in this hotel. Great affordable hotel, location in the centre of Alicante, close to the beach, pier and main attractions, great view from the taras, everything as expected.

The hotel is well situated, the staff is friendly and helpfull. Alicante itself is quite calm this time of year, but it is still no problem finding restaurants & shops within 5 min walk. The main market is a must!

We stayed Thursday to Tuesday. Surrounding area VERY NOISY on Thursday/ Friday & Saturday through the night. Asked at reception if they had a quieter room and although they offered a different room they advised that ALL rooms had noise issues over weekend.

Room was fine, big bathroom, we stayed in room 301, there was some street noise at night but I think the rooms at the front of the hotel that look out the square would be quieter although they were more expensive. There is a nice terrace on the roof if its sunny and very convenient location for everything.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

There was no Internet in my room. There were no English tv channels but worst of all it was extremely noisy. I could not recommend this hotel because I did to sleep well for two nights.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very well located, though a tad difficult to find, especially if arriving by car. We booked for one night, to break a journey south, en route to Malaga. We booked a double room, but were given twin beds (too tired, after a very long drive, to attempt to change rooms) Disappointed there was no hot drink courtesy tray, though there was a well stocked […] mini-bar.

The hotel was nice but I thought the decor was average. I was a bit put off because there was a damp spot in the bathroom which had spoors coming out it. It was right over the toilet.

Very good nothing to much trouble for the staff. The breakfast in the hotel was on offer at 7.50Euros which was good value, the buffet had a good selection of food, which was to a good standard, but was possibly to expensive at the normal rate of 10Euros.

!am arrival but a cheerful welcome from the receptionist. Comfy bed, very clean room and well equiped bathroom, and a good breakfast next morning, served until 10.30am on weekdays too. Stayed before and will do again.

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel after a few hiccups which the staff sorted we would recommend a stay here as it is ideally situated for everything.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Perfectly situated a 5 minute walk from the port and beach, and also 5 mins away from the main dining district. Rooms spacious, beds not overused, bathroom large and clean. For a special view, go up to the 6th floor and up to the terrace on top of the building - you can see the city hall and square with the mountain and castle in the background. Better […] than any postcard! The breakfast also had a wide selection of fresh fruit (watermelon, pineapple), cereals, pastries, yoghurts, sausages and eggs. Read more

We were made to feel very welcome when we arrived and this continued throughout our stay. The room was large by European standards and well presented. We only had a niggle with the bath in the bathroom which had chipped enamel, but other than that it was acceptable. The roof terrace had breathtaking views of the castle, especially beautiful at night. […] You must take a bottle of cava up after dinner and enjoy! The breakfast was very comprehensive with a range of hot and cold food and a very friendly maitre'd. The air conditioning, although not working on arrival, was fixed the next day and much appreciated in the mid August heat wave we experienced. This is a very good low cost option, minutes from the beach in old Alicante, we would recommend and would probably go again. Read more

Tbe hotel has everything going for it - great location, great staff, decent breakfast, nice and modern..... but the air conditioning is SO BAD.
