Review 2:From the time we arrived till the time we left the staff were very pleasant and helpful the hotel was spotless well done all the staff thank u
Review 3:The location was very good as it was within walking distance of the beach an the tram line was right outside which allowed easy access to the centre of town A good selection on offer for breakfast Room was clean an comfortable
Review 4:A bus runs from the airport straight into Alicante which I found very helpful. Staff were also very helpful and you had a good choice at breakfast. I would definitely stay there again.
Review 5:Very thin walls. We were able to hear every single voice our neighbors made during sex. Room service didn't clean the room everyday.
Review 6:Tasty breakfast. Nice view from the room.
Review 7:only critisim is the breakfast although plentiful the bacon and eggs were cold perhaps they could improve warming plates
Review 8:lovely room with a view and comfy bed friendly staff
Review 9:Nothing.
Review 10:Excellent, friendly staff who were very attentive. Good facilities for all and ideal location (not in the thick of the busy part so quiet enough, with a nice walk in to the centre).
Review 11:I was very pleased with most aspects of the Hotel, location on the edge of the city was ok for me because i love walking but i realise some guests would require a taxi or the bus which conveniently stops across the road to access the city centre, Staff were obliging and helpful especially with directions, my room clean nicely decorated, clean & comfortable it was overlooking the pool which looked very inviting but unfortunately was closed for the season, the hotel was situated at side of a busy route to the city centre but there was no disturbance from either people of traffic, Breakfast the next morning was a nice mixture of English and continental which suited all tastes, all in all nice hotel, nice staff, nice food.
Review 12:Not the Hotels fault, but the occupants of the room next door were very noise when coming back at 1.30 am.
Review 13:Helpful staff and good location to Plaza Mar 2 shopping centre. Good local bar called The Robins.
Review 14:The walls were just too thin. You could hear EVERYTHING going on in the room next door !!!! The beds were just a bit too hard. Yves on reception was hard work. The girls were very nice.
Review 15:A short walk to town once we had worked out the best route. A very good cinema nearby with original language filns on Tuesdays.
Review 16:Dinner selection not good. Wifi not very strong. No balcony in our room but fantastic castle and sea view.
Review 17:Staff were all excellent - special thanks to Miguel and "wife" for being so lovely. Great location for a stroll to the beach, shopping centre, tram and marina but far away enough that it was very quiet. Breakfast was very good. Excellent value. Staff spoke good English.
Review 18:Nothing adverse to report.
Review 19:Very pleasant and helpful staff. Free wifi anywhere in the hotel is very useful. Rooms are a good size. Very close to tram station and a bus stop outside the hotel entrance.
Review 20:lady in the restaurant charged us to 1/2 fill the baby's bottle with milk.
Review 21:reception staff and cleaning staff were super friendly and very helpfull
Review 22:I ordered a double room and received a twin room, with two single beds which where very uncomfortable and moved apart as there were wheels on them!! asked to change room and the member of staff was rude.
Review 23:the area was safe and close to the shopping centre, beach, city centre and tram to benidorm.
Review 24:First I was not happy because I asked for special price because I always come to Alicante with my wife for medical visit for the vissum but you refused even to reply the hotel request Am Muslim and I think you have a quantity of people come from Midle east so please try to introduce more halal food .
Review 25:The staff specially the reception guys were so friendly ,location is good and I think will be my first choise when I come back to Alicante .
Review 26:Paper thin walls meant snoring and chatting neighbouring guest could be heard.
Review 27:Reception staff friendly efficient and helpful. Cleaning staff cheerful and welcoming. Hire kettle at desk for that cuppa at leisure. Safe streets to walk.
Review 28:Lack of professionalism-staff was trying to cancel my reservation on the day of arrival even though I booked the room in one month advance. The beds were really unconfortable (extremely tough). The walls were so thin that we heard our neighbours as if they were in our room. The swimming pool was very cold (it is always in shadow and is not heated).
Review 29:The hotel is quite close to nice beach like 15 mins of walk.
Review 30:Room very hot even with a/c on. No balcony despite superior room. Food at dinner was very disappointing. Reception staff and two other staff were helpful and pleasant - the others seemedl like they hated their jobs.
Review 31:Bus outside hotel. Good breakfast
Review 32:No tea making facilities in room. On a hill so perhaps not suitable for elderly. Beach takes 15 minutes downhill to get too
Review 33:Breakfast was very good...plenty and well presented. Very convenient for tram station.
Review 34:wanted to hire a car which should have been possible via reception, but not very helpful and said we would have to pick up car from the airport with 900 euro deposit thats crazy your website states that car hire is possible from this hotel
Review 35:the bed was terrible. Like sleeping on a rock. The room was not so fancy but fine for the price. The bartender left the bar allot and we had to wait for him.
Review 36:The location is great and the hotel is cheap. The staff was nice
Review 37:Food was always luke warm even during the evening buffet.
Review 38:Great location, 10 mins to beach, 15 to marina, 5 mins to a huge shopping mall, 2 mins to tram station, 15 mins to castle.Tram takes you into Benidorm to zoo and water parks very easy to use only costs about 6 euro return! Rooms were cleaned daily. Provided a cot free of charge. Nice staff especially in bar and restaurant. Good size pool. Play area with trampoline for kids which is sheltered hence good during midday sun. Good selection of food at breakfast.
Review 39:Broken light bulbs and dodgy beds. Neighbourhood feels like you might get mugged, and the staff act like you're intruding on their permanant lunch break.
Review 40:Short walk to the fort.
Review 41:- I did not like that the hotel charged my credit card for the whole stay before my arrival. They explained that they had to do it beacuse the hotel was full. They should have only pre-authorize my card, without charging. This is my only one remark. Other things were perfect.
Review 42:+location was excellent- near to beach, to the Castillo and to the shopping centre +the breakfast- additionally paid 10€, was delicious- wide selection, English breakfast, cold plates, friuit, sweets, delicious coffee +the staff at reception: very friendly and helpful +the swimming pool- was not big, but sufficient. Delicious sangria at the pool's bar. +spacious rooms, beautiful view at the sea (room No 514), nice looking bathroom, comfortable beds, good isolation (no hearing of the neighbor)
Review 43:You were within walking distance to the beach and main center staff friendly and helpful the activities for kids my daughter loved those the girl running them couldn't have been nicer. found the buffet a little expensive as we were on a 7 day holiday and it does add up
Review 44:Walls are a bit thin so you can hear guests in other rooms
Review 45:Central location, just behind castle. Parking available at additional cost but handy. Staff friendly. Rooms and hotel really clean.
Review 46:a comfortable bedroom chair and some hooks to hang clothes on would have been useful. Gloomy,poorly lit pool bar area- only option in sept.after restaurant hours
Review 47:very good breakfast. Good swimming pool
Review 48:Gym - good facility in great spot but in need of revamp of machines. Treadmill really noisy, spin bikes broken. Any chance of some new equipment as we noticed it is well used.
Review 49:Hotel perfect and value for money - 3rd visit now.
Review 50:No bad experience
Review 51:We loved how central we were and the fact the tram is right outside best way to travel the staff were so friendly and helpful we really couldn't find fault except maybe the pool was a little cool! You are a 15 minute walk to the marina and old town and all the restaurants it was just an all round great experience
Review 52:I've booked sea view room , but when we arrived . We only got Conorroom which only can see half if the sea not really sea view roomandstaff was not so helpful . I have to say I am working In hospitalty firmand I know what is Sea view room and what is not! Really dispontant !Also, our flight it's very late and I was asked late check out whenI booked the hotel. Unfortunitily they only let us stay till 15:00 andpay the 40 €even I want to pay more to stay longer. The answer is No!.My two years daughter have to have a snap in the airport! I amunderstand it's tge hight season that hotel is very busy , but Ifyou say No when I booked hotel in two month ago . I can accept it , notin two days before I am leaving! However one gril in the reception wasnice and tried to help. But she is Only a staff!! Beside above restit's fine!
Review 53:Hotel s location is good !
Review 54:Bar closes at 12MD Bar staff had attitude and often not at the Bar so people had to wait for them to return before they got served. No tea and coffee facility in room
Review 55:Room size, hot water in the shower, swimming pool, choice of food at breakfast, free wifi, lifts,view from balcony
Review 56:Night rate charged by bookings different than the one advertised. Hotel was charging 79 per night. Bookings charged me 110 euros.
Review 57:View from room but noisy
Review 58:Beds are quiet hard and didn't always open the outside/ pool bar when required.
Review 59:Nice pool, cleaners are brilliant, view and location good for shopping beach and town.
Review 60:it is a bit far out necessitating extra expense in taking taxis. a lot of hotel staff had poor english . not great when weather was wet. There should be an english speaking channel in bedrooms when weather was bad e.g. sky news or other sky programmes.
Review 61:the cleanliness of the hotel
Review 62:No entertainment, miles from anywhere, poor choice of breakfast, rooms were almost like cells, tiny pool with towels allowed to be left on sun beds, full of Spanish people who were rude and unfriendly.
Review 63:Nothing
Review 64:Short walk to beach, Far enough away from town to be quiet, Average walk to town but some nice bars and great eating places along the way. Easy to get to hotel via bus from airport.
Review 65:Lifts were a nightmare, waited 30 mins for lift to check out. Check in and check out took far to long - combined with the lift we had to rush and get a taxi to the station (give yourself 45 mins to get down through the lift and check out)
Review 66:Location close to tram and to port, very reasonable taxi cost at night. English TV was a refreshing change.
Review 67:There were not enough lawn chairs in the pool area. The one's that were there were often "reserved" with beach towels.
Review 68:We liked the location close to the beach, town centre and castle. The meals were good, with a lot of choise and staff was friendly.
Review 69:Exiting the car park was difficult, the barrier would not go up.
Review 70:Location to town centre & beach, facilities were good, staff were friendly & helpful, great choice of menu for both breakfast & evening meal buffet.
Review 71:The staff were horrible, especially the restaurant staff, they lied about the dietery requirements and didnt respect that i don't eat pork! The reception team are better, although we had a bad start with them. The hotel is ideal if you want to stay inside, but the motorway and highways around it makes it impossible to enjoy. This part of Alicante is not good,,we moved to Benidorm for much a better trip.
Review 72:The hotel is clean, this is the good thing about it, also Paco from the reception was helpful compared to others.
Review 73:Had a Burger in the pool area which was not so well cooked. So the food experience is mixed (had a meal at one evening, buffet, which was ordinary) The breakfast is most likely the best meal... The cusine could be improved and needs more varity and perhaps some fantasy. Have stayed here 4 times the last 9 months so its not an one timer...
Review 74:Location of course... Almost everyone in the reception and particulary some. Cleaning
Review 75:Lifts were slow to arrive and work. Breakfast was cold. I would visit again, as the room was excellent.
Review 76:Had a quad room, massive tv, other room also had tv, had terrace overlooking castle and sea, other side overlooking pool. Sofa beds bit uncomfortable but ok. Two bathrooms, minibar, safe, everything you could need. Was on 9th floor, didnt hear any noise at all. Aircon worked fine. Good location, right by tram, supermarket nearby in plaza de mar with a mcds. Good machines with drinks and sweets. Pool open with a bar playing music. Has tennis and mini golf.
Review 77:It is not centrally located as stated in the description there is a good 15 min walk downhill to alicante main strip. Prepare to use taxis. Not ideal for young children didnt have that kind of atmosphere. Saw no activities for children at hotel. Staff are quite cold
Review 78:Hotel and pool were very clean and air conditioning worked well, wifi was good as well
Review 79:Booking.com service staff outstanding but the hotel service was beyond bad. The staff is so unfriendly, rude, so unhelpfull, unwelcomming and have no clue what service is about. The pool area is nice but impossible to get a chair in case you want to sleep more than to 8:00 am The food and selection was very poor The standard of the premisses and rooms are not like on the pictures. Its old and need restoration. We payed extra for a room with view and got a big buildingwall as view. Respons from the hotel was "other view is based on availability and the hotel is full" even though we payed for it. They were not interested in helping out, show some good faith or compensating us at all. However, Booking.com was very helpfull and supportive and they compensated us for the lost view since the hotel refused. Poor cleaning as well even upon arrival at the room How they managed to get 3-stars+ and a 8.2 rating is beyond my understanding. Its a hotel suitable for persons with no needs or expectations.
Review 80:Located pretty close to the beach
Review 81:Breakfast was 10 euro was ok but if you go bit later was not restocked when ran out of things ,location about 15 mins from town walking ,wifi not great in rooms but fine in lobby ,third bed was fold up
Review 82:Lovely and clean high up so had balcony was really good having couple drinks at night with friends chilling ,recp staff were friendly and helpful ...fridge in room was great for keeping water cold and pool was great ,also handy for tram and bus stop outside hotel
Review 83:Food was OK, but nothing special No hash browns one day at breakfast Not enough cutlery and clean glasses at lunch and dinner
Review 84:Room was clean, comfortable and spacious Location was a 5 minute walk from the main beach Staff were very friendly and helpful Swimming pool very nice Close to the castle and hills
Review 85:Hated the noisy roundabout. Every night between midnight and one the road was full of kids going home on extremely noisy mopeds, and bin lorries coming in to town. Breakfasts were just adequate. Lots of variety but not great quality.
Review 86:Loved the pool, the staff. Happy enough with the location.
Review 87:Do not have the evening meal it cost thirteen euros and didn't even include a drink we have stayed at many hotels and had the evening Buffett meal here the choices,were,terrible and definitely not worth 13 euros, so I asked for my money back which we did get as,the reception staff were very friendly and apologetic
Review 88:Location close,to shopping centre and straight next door to tram station which took you straight into the,centre of alicante for only 1Euro 45, the breakfast was,really good value and you could even have cava and white wine included in the price which is a bit ironic,as you had to pay for drinks with the evening meal
Review 89:Bad internet connectivity, especially in the evening when lots of people are using it. In the morning at 6am only 7 Mbps download max speed. This really annoyed my wife and me since we like to surf the Internet in the evening. Hotel should invest in a faster internet connection.
Review 90:A kettle in the room with a few tea bags would have been nice for this Brit.J (I know we could have borrowed one at reception, though, so clearly it wasn't a BIG problem.)
Review 91:The location was perfect for us, and we got a good room with a large balcony with a fantastic view. The beds were good. Excellent value for money for a three-star hotel. Wi-fi and print-out services were helpful so I could some work done while on holiday - thank you.
Review 92:Everything.3 story Shopping center with a huge supermarket right across the road. Beach 5 min walk and strip of restaurants a few shops and a few pubs just a walk from the beach.
Review 93:The walls are very thin and you can hear EVERYTHING from neighboring rooms.
Review 94:The pool was handy and the brilliant location of the room was very useful. Also we got a top floor room as I'd requested and we had a great view of the sea.
Review 95:Terrible food (greasy and over priced), also service was a bit slow and the air conditioned could have been more effective.
Review 96:The rooms were large and well furnished and very clean. The beds were comfy and the wifi connection was excellent.
Review 97:There are many options at breakfast but the overall quality is not too good. Also the bed is not super comfy.
Review 98:The wifi is strong, the staff is helpful and polite and there is a swimming pool. It is also close to the center and the beach.
Review 99:The location was perfect, 10 mins to the beach, 5 mins from the shops, 5 mins from the local tram station where you can link up to all across Spain. The staff were very friendly especially those around the pool bar, spoke good English and tried to help make my stay better. Perfect hotel.
Review 100:Nothing really, would stay again.
Review 101:Friendly staff, very clean, five minutes from Tram station which will take you all the way up the coast to explore. Free wifi, comfortable rooms, air con, great breakfast, leisurely 10/15 minute walk to town centre. Pizzeria Civitavecchia lovely Italian restaurant just around the corner!
Review 102:The car park is extremely tight and you should be deducted 10 euros per night for braving it, rather than be charged 10. Park over the road for free but risk being blocked in.
Review 103:Good value and has a tram station just over the road.
Review 104:Nothing really only walls were a bit thin and could easily hear people next door.
Review 105:Hotel staff were friendly, hotel was convenient to beach, shopping, tram and nightlife.
Review 106:More sun loungers are needed. Get rid of the crazy golf & put more loungers there.
Review 107:Everything was very clean & a good quality 3star hotel. We didn't have any problems with noise as previous reviews. Had amazing sea view. Close to beach. About 20min walk to the centre but a nice walk along the sea front.
Review 108:overcharged in 'bar' which was a makeshift canopy outdoors & having complained -was told would be investigated & only when checking out was offered 'something at the bar' -kettle supposed to be available but not provided/staff indifferent/eggs cold at breakfast buffet
Review 109:Could do with more sun beds, we arrived at lunchtime & sunbeds were reserved by people with towels and even at 4.30pm we were unable to get any. Shame about polystyrene cups at pool bar but can understand safety reason for doing this.
Review 110:Location worked well for us - 10 minute walk to beach and castle lift. Enclosed balcony provider safe area for our young daughter. Good choice at breakfast. Really good value for price. Room was specious and well equipped.
Review 111:we had a sea view which was fab but perhaps have somewhere to dry swimwear on the balcony areas as we were staying for 10 days with kids and had to make do with draping clothes, towels over the chairs. Obviously nothing that would look unsightly - perhaps a clothes airer so that items would not be visible at street level . Shower curtains too short for bath .
Review 112:It was our second visit and i'm already planning to return in September !!! In very close proximity to the airport, bus stop, tram and train stations,beach, town, shops, marina. Great facilities lovely staff, clean hotel, amazing buffet breakfast HIGHLY recommended.
Review 113:We weren't sure how to operate the air conditioner but at least we were able to open windows for some lovely breezes
Review 114:This hotel was really well located & the facilities were great
Review 115:Staff at reception Good nights sleep Excellent location if you like exploring plenty of bars and restaurants not far away and beach only 10 minute walk.
Review 116:The cleanest of hotel. The friendly helpful staff. The location of Maya Hotel is short walk to beach, shops, trains and buses Hotel with excellent connection to the internet in rooms. We Would stay again at the Maya Hotel..
Review 117:Cleaners started making a noise from 7.30am. They were so loud - shouting to each - hoovering - throwing furniture around. I could go on.....totally ruined my stay.
Review 118:1.Personel in reception wasn't helpful 2.Car park price per day 10eur , way too high, should be for free for hotel guests 3.Poor Wi-Fi
Review 119:1.Clean swimming pool, everyday morning they clean him 2.Good service in hotel's restaurant
Review 120:Отдыхали с 22.05.15-01.06.15, остались всем довольны. До моря пешком не спеша мин. 7-10 , до центра города (el corte ingles) мин.30-40 пешком, с маленькими детьми пешком до цетра далековато, на такси около 5 евро. WIFI в отеле/номере работал хорошо. Питание в отеле из максимальных 10 баллов (заврак: вполне приличный и нормальный выбор - 9 , обед/ужин: маленький выбор и однообразный - 8). Номер: все чисто, удобно, красиво, комфортно. Номер брали на 7 этаже с видом на море, все супер. Туалетные принадлежности ежедневно пополняются. В основном все отлично, с удовольствием вернемся еще раз туда, всем рекомендуем.
Review 121:location is little far from city centre but close to beach (Postiguet). Room was big though but we felt room make up service was not that good.we were three in the room but they provided only a single quilt. When asked night staff has given something that I cant say a blanket.Baby cot was broken though we havn't used it.
Review 122:This hotel is amazing.Its clean comfortable equipped with several elevators and lot of amenities.Food (breakfast,lunch,dinner) was so good and full of varieties you can hardly try all of them, and its cheap too.If you are travelling with kids am sure they are going to have a good time with the game equipements they have.They even have free storage incase if you want t o store your luggage.Though our check in time was at 4pm but they made the room one hour before, what I think was quite helpful for us.
Review 123:I arrived early ( between 12 and 1pm), checked in and give a room number but told room was not ready. When I came back around 3 hours later (official check in time 4 pm) room was still not ready. Finally they gave me the card key. In the meantime a helpful person had allocated me another room on the computer. So, when new guests arrived at 2.30am they tried to get into my room, thinking it empty. Following morning after breakfast I couldn't get back into my room because the computer no longer recognized me.
Review 124:The smiling well meaning receptionist. Buffet breakfast good but no black tea.
Review 125:I could not connect my laptop to the hotel's WiFi
Review 126:- large room with a balcony - good location (5 minutes to the beach and the tram station opposite the hotel entrance) - tasty breakfast
Review 127:No bad experience, only pool small and sun loungers too close together and the only bar was the pool bar which drinking from plastic glasses was not very enticing..
Review 128:The room was very spacious, clean and staff were lovely, meal in the evening was very good and reasonably priced
Review 129:Very popular hotel and pool area small for amount of guests staying there.
Review 130:Plenty of choice for breakfast and very reasonable when booked as a package. Solarium is sun soaked from morning till evening. Staff very helpful and pleasant. Nearby shopping centre great.
Review 131:Wifi wasn't good. The elevators are a bit slow in reacting but nothing to cry about.
Review 132:The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was large and comfortable with a large balcony that had a view of the sea. The indoor parking garage was quite handy and cost only €10 per day. Nice to keep it cool and safe.
Review 133:Very good hotel. We have a beautiful memory from Maya hotel. The manager made a nice surprise for my husband's birthday (the day when we arrived). We got a beautiful suite (with an excellent view) on the top floor of the hotel (instead of regular room). Thank you so much!
Review 134:The evening meal was awful it was cold and a very bad selection also there was no bar to relax in at night they only had an outside bar pool
Review 135:Comfortable bed... lovely staff and wifi was great
