Why stay in a hotel in Alicante
Hotel accommodation is recommended for those who want a totally relaxing holiday without any hassle. You won’t have to make your bed, clean, cook: you can devote all your time to the sea and fun!
Many hotels have a 24-hour reception, which means that you can count on the assistance of the hotel staff at all times for whatever you need. The staff will be able to help you organise your holiday, giving you advice and information on how to get to the most famous and also the lesser-known tourist spots.
Another advantage of choosing a hotel is the services offered, such as parking, concierge, laundry, airport transfers, free internet access and air conditioning. Some hotels have a swimming pool, perfect for those days when you feel so lazy that you don’t even want to go down to the beach!
How to choose the right hotel in Alicante
When choosing a hotel in Alicante, it’s good to have a clear idea of the type of holiday you intend to take and the type of traveller you most identify with.
Are you a low-cost traveller? Maybe a cheap, family-run pension is for you. Are you travelling on business? A hotel that guarantees services such as a reliable Internet connection, parking, airport transfer: international chains are the best choice for you. Are you a family? Comfort is important to you but you may have to keep an eye on expenses: a mid-range hotel with half-board might be right for you.
Mentally make a list of what you might need or want to find in order to identify the type of hotel you want to book.
For advice on the best areas for hotels in and around Alicante you can consult our ‘Where to stay in Alicante’ page.
Once you have found the hotels you like, compare prices to choose the cheapest one. In order to make a real price comparison of several hotels, you need to check whether the rates include taxes and breakfast and whether the reservation can be modified or not. Also check the location of the hotel on a map and assess the distance to public transport if you plan to use it, or the ease of access by private transport if you plan to rent a car.
